82

Could I possibly get a reality check over here?

So Cute-Perky-and-Russian has gotten her crazy face on. Big freaking deal. Nobody's actually died, right?  I was wrong, apparently somebody did. I'd say my face was red, but, y'know.

Best case scenario, we all get a few bruises, tomorrow or next week or whenever she realizes what a total drama queen

My inmate died.

[gotgreenmagic]

So now we're up to Average Week On The Barge numbers.

[peektuttut]

S'why I like you. Perspective. [Tim is still just. Half asleep. All over.]

[notarrowette]

Thank you. This is all so stupid.

[gotgreenmagic]

...

Really, princess? I expected something more in a micro-lecture about respecting the lives of my peers.

[notarrowette]

Maybe I'd be in the mood to give one if our peers weren't so fixated on killing someone just because they think it'll fix things--like it'll help in the long run anyway. Like killing Sveta is going to make her suddenly appreciate this place and realize she made a mistake in waking up one day and thinking "screw this place" like most of us do from time to time...

I don't know.

[gotgreenmagic]

Yeah, but whatever happens, I doubt she's gonna be saying 'screw this place' out loud anymore now she knows it will actually cause this place to be screwed.

Yes, we should assume the Admiral hasn't already been affected, that the ship won't spontaneously incinerate, that we won't be sucked into the Fade, that the air won't turn poisonous or a myriad of other rather unsightly possibilities... Including one such as myself accidentally causing something even more horrific due to these events.

With no end in sight, I prefer not to take such chances.

[gotgreenmagic]

Whatever, newbie. Also, whatever the Fade is, it's probably native to whatever non-shirt-wearing world you come from.

[tis_disapproval]

I assure you, it knows no worldly borders - and there are places worser, still.

Hexes of this nature can be exceedingly dangerous. Especially those of enough magnitude to affect the entire ship. We are no safer allowing this to continue than any other manner of plague.

[gotgreenmagic]

Okay. Go try and kill her if it gives you some sense of control over this situation. No skin off my back.

[stopthat_destro]

I'd still rather not fall off the Barge as it crash lands into a pitiful dystopia again.

[gotgreenmagic]

Well, yeah, I'd rather we didn't have a Warden throwing a superpowered temper tantrum at all. Just saying, even if this was the Titanic and she was the iceberg, we'd have enough lifeboats to go around.

[stopthat_destro]

Yeah. There's really no reason to panic. Ultimately, most crises on the Barge boil down to temporary inconvenience.

[gotgreenmagic]

No kidding.

You ever get that coffee?
