on being forced to wait

[keen_eye]

It's fine. I understand wanting to make sure you can handle both school and your game before doing anything with me. It'll give you a chance to find a place that will accept me before all that nonsense, if one exists.

Perhaps you could pick through Ultimates for my appearances as well? You do so love watching me die.

Your Mundane sounds a tad sadistic.

[keen_eye]

It's more a flare for the dramatic, I think. Or hope.

[cast_the_skin]

[He laughs]

Well I hope so too, but, why do you keep dying?

[keen_eye]

Because my brother keeps killing me! He honestly needs a new hobby.

[cast_the_skin]

[He's going to frown a little, you have Mowgli's full attention now.]

Well that is not very brotherly, brothers can be crude and cruel but.. I think murdering is going a little far. What have you done to anger him?

[keen_eye]

Well, I throw snowballs at him ...

[Serious answer?] I was in his way.

[cast_the_skin]

So he simply cuts you down, like a young tree? It is too bad that you two could not come, to a compromise. It is always sad to see brothers fight.

[This was rich, coming from Mowgli. It didn't work for him, why should it work for anyone else?]

[keen_eye]

There is not always a compromise to be found. He knew that, which is why he shot me down not knowing who I was--not caring who I was, because I might stop him.

[cast_the_skin]

I see. Since you seem alive and well again, will you be seeking revenge against him?

[keen_eye]

No. He is my brother.

Besides, the time when I could stop him has passed.

[cast_the_skin]

Oh, such a shame. What did he want anyway?

[keen_eye]

I'm not sure anyone knows, including him. But in the short term? Power.
