Dear Mun,

Do you not think you are being overly... Hasty? Yes, I understand your desire to keep me out there in the world but for god-sakes, at least finish the game, won't you? If you keep this up I fear I will get nothing done.

As much as I fear to agree with you: that makes two of us.

Even we have to agree on things once in a while. Even if you are loathe to do so.

[brave_royal_fighter]

Pardon? I believe you must have me mistaken with some other fellow. I am no sheep.

/wheezing

[brave_royal_fighter]

Are you quite done yet?



... I rather like my hat.

[lope]

That's putting it kindly.

[brave_royal_fighter]

I only try to keep it civil.

[lope]

Of course. As ever.

Were I only allowed to say that much more.

[brave_royal_fighter]

Shall I invite you to speak your mind?

[lope]

Only if the ones above consent to it.

[ If he were the type to smirk, he'd be doing so right now. He of the walking spoiler. ]

[brave_royal_fighter]

My handler cares not, though, I doubt he is one you are referring to.

[He arches his brow. Smirks are for better occasions. He knows those feels.]

[lope]

Then I may speak freely, as you wish.

You speak of civility only when it would benefit you. [ can't help it if he kinda sounds like a rebellious teenager. sry dad ]

[ghostintheanimus]

Those are the creatures who believe in ^leaders and followers, aren't they?

I'm not fooled. I've had too many lives for that.

[brave_royal_fighter]

And what makes you assume this is for my benefit? [You are grounded mister.]

[lope]

Isn't everything you do so? [ oh snaaaaaaaaaaaap ]

[brave_royal_fighter]

Leaders, perhaps. Followers, not as much.

[brave_royal_fighter]

No. I fail to see how having you benefited me. [You want some ice for that burn, son?]

[brave_royal_fighter]

Why would I bother with a hood? Those make you look suspicious and untrustworthy.

[ dammit he's got nothing. YOU WIN THIS DAY, DAD. the battle is lost but the war is still on-going. ]

[brave_royal_fighter]

As I said, not everything I do benefits me. [The father has to take the son to school after all.]

[ghostintheanimus]

Every_body thinks they're the one in charge, but the strings connect up and up and we can't even see-

Shut up and stop trying to kill JFK!

[lope]

[ one day, the son will surpass the father.

this is not that day, sadly. ]

As you will, but take care not to disrespect Mother.

[ she is the one who taught the teacher, after all, mr. slowtalk. ]

[brave_royal_fighter]

Pardon..? What are you going on about?

[brave_royal_fighter]

[Clearly it's not.]

I would never. She was a wiser woman than most men.

[Shut up. He didn't know the extent of her English, not to mention he had been running through the snow...]

[ghostintheanimus]

[rubs his head] Damn it, lost the çentury again. Happens a lot, thanks to your friends.

Like I was saying, you're ^a tool.

[lope]

[ one could say she gave him the
cold shoulder. ]

Than all, I would dare to say.

[ urgh urgh there are so many things he could possibly say IF ONLY HE WERE THE INSULTING TYPE ]

[Badumtis.]

I am inclined to agree.

[IF ONLY. God Connor, stop being a block of stone. Snark it up man.]

[brave_royal_fighter]

My friends?

Last time I checked I was a human, not a tool.

[brave_royal_fighter]

But that is oh so boring. I rather like standing out from the rest of them.

[ghostintheanimus]

Your brothers. Links in the same chain from past to future.

Then you don't c////heck real often.

[brave_royal_fighter]

My brothers in arms as they say?

Well, as I see myself now I am made of flesh and blood like a human so there for, one can safely assume that I am still such.

[ghostintheanimus]

E^xactly. They've collected a lot of new tools and new toys over the years. Ways to torture people you could only dream of.

Flesh and blood can be programmed like anything else. What are genes but code?
