This is a mistake... - Canon is Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol

[justthehelper]

You're aware how much of a mistake this is, right?

...

Then why've you done this? Seriously, what happened to taking it easy?

[sixthanimorph]

... I think you missed the point.

[Who is this guy?]

[justthehelper]

Well, I know that just threatening won't work. Hell, the gun probably won't work. It's not like we can actually see these guys in front of us, right?

[Wouldn't you like to know?]

[sixthanimorph]

... I'd really like to know where you're from where "grievous bodily harm" is your first solution.

And people say I'm trigger happy.

[justthehelper]

Well, look. Threatening does nothing, so I can rule that out.

[And he's going to start ticking these off on his hand.]

If you're suggesting taking a gun along, I can assume civil conversations are a no-go. I can't physically get my hands on him, so that's out, and I can't kill him.

[Those are his points.]

Given my current equipment, where does that leave me?

[sixthanimorph]

[Hm. Well, when you put it that way...]

I never said civil conversation was absolutely a no-go. I just said take the gun in case. You never know, the dude could be reasonable.

[But with that said:]

Okay, okay. I see your point. I'm just saying most people wouldn't jump right to shooting out someone's kneecaps.

[justthehelper]

I thought it was a pretty logical chain of thought.

[sixthanimorph]

Is this the way you handle everyone you protect?

[justthehelper]

Depends on the situation.

[sixthanimorph]

Remind me not to ever be bodyguarded by you.

[justthehelper]

[Brandt snorts and smiles at that.]

Noted.
