[sorcerous]

For what purpose have we been brought here?

Speak quick. My patience is thin.

The natives here only tell us that the ship we were on has been here for a long time. They have no idea how or why.

[video]

[sorcerous]

And so it crashed, with a great load of frozen cargo.

[video]

[knightoflight]

"That appears to be a working theory."

He frowns. "It does not explain you or your friend, however."

[video]

[sorcerous]

Take a moment to reconsider your choice of words.

[ Kara is not his friend. ]

[video] lol excuse my format!fail!

[knightoflight]

...what word would you have me use? We are hardly enemies, any of us.

[video] no worries!

[sorcerous]

Unfriendly acquaintance, perhaps.

[video]

[knightoflight]

She was--perhaps--a bit unsettled. Most of us were disoriented enough just waking up here. Not...crashing as she did.

And many warriors chafe at needing help.

[video]

[sorcerous]

To their detriment.

[video]

[knightoflight]

It is a hard lesson, for some, to learn to work together. To learn that not everyone is an enemy.

[He sighs.] It makes me wonder what her world is like, to make her think so.

[video]

[sorcerous]

I would venture to guess that it is overrun with robots.

[video]

[knightoflight]

[You say that like it's a bad thing!]

Not all of us are war mongers.

[video]

[sorcerous]

You're primitive.

[video]

[knightoflight]

[Wing laughs.]

I have seen 'advancements', and what they have done to my planet.

If I am 'primitive' it is a better thing than that.

[video]

[sorcerous]

Then your planet is primitive in thought and action, as well as technology.

[video]

[knightoflight]

Do you find war and devastation to be more 'advanced'?

[Because if so there may be problems.]

[video]

[sorcerous]

The opposite.

[voice]

[buckingauthority]

[Have a snort of laughter at this exchange.]

[video]

[sorcerous]

Do you disagree?

[voice]

[buckingauthority]

No, but it's no less funny seeing you get all bent out of shape over it. I'm just wondering how you got that huge rod up your ass, the image is comical, believe me.

[voice]

[sorcerous]

Well, as you already know, I am made of much hardier stuff than you.

[voice]

[buckingauthority]

Come on. Your panties are bunching in record time. It's almost endearing.

[voice]

[sorcerous]

And how is your knee?

[voice]

[buckingauthority]

Oh, fine, just fine. It says 'hi', actually.

[A slightly brittle edge to her tone is creeping in. She doesn't like being seen as weak.]

[voice]

[sorcerous]

A shame, to have a soldier laid low because of weakness.

[voice]

[buckingauthority]

[Cue sharp chuckle.]


Ha! Obviously you don't know me very well. I'm not laid low, Loki. Far from it.
