Why not?

loathemirrors January 24 2009, 02:09:15 UTC

To light a path as well, correct, sir?

text hotatlantean January 24 2009, 03:07:41 UTC

Yes, that's right.

ttlynotawizard January 24 2009, 02:38:15 UTC

Doesn't work for everything.

text hotatlantean January 24 2009, 03:08:18 UTC

No, of course not. It isn't a perfect system, by any means, and torches leave flickers. But it is better than stumbling in complete shadow, yes?

text ttlynotawizard January 24 2009, 04:28:16 UTC

This is true. What are you thinking of?

text hotatlantean January 24 2009, 18:19:55 UTC

Well, I think there are a few basic human principles that most people will agree on. Murder, rape, stealing, most people could say that they think those are not good. Then we would need a system, of course, to keep them from not happening. What could we do? In At-lantis, sometimes you have your hands tied behind your back for days, when you pick a pocket?

So joo got sometin' in mind already?

text hotatlantean January 24 2009, 18:20:41 UTC

I am not the only person aboard, you see, yes, and I am not the most powerful. It would need to be agree, yes? I have some ideas.

text pimp_hat January 24 2009, 19:40:23 UTC

the problem be getting everybody to agree on something. there be people here that ain't got everyone's best interests in mind. and there be even more that just don't care at all.

text hotatlantean January 25 2009, 01:32:29 UTC

Most people must care. They are human, yes? We are all the same, and we all have cares.

I like laws.

When I'm the one enforcing them.

"Use of excessive force" is the best damn thing EVER when there's no stick-in-the-mud to pull you up on it. Heheheh.

text hotatlantean January 24 2009, 18:21:08 UTC

You could be helpful, then? Enforcers, they are necessary.

[Um, LOL]

Yes, yes they fucking are.

There's no-one here with the authority to command me. But I'd be willing to cut a deal.

Enforcers need FORCE, or at the very least numbers, to make others mind them. Therefore, I need either my gun or a squad who'll follow my damn orders. Preferably both.

And I won't be brought up short by Redd, either, for using force against others in the name of keeping the peace. You get exemption for me - and my unit, if necessary - from his little rules, and I'll be your head of security.

[Yeah, there's no way in hell. This guy's just spinning his wheels. But it's amusing.]

[Kah-nath laughs along with him. :D]

Perhaps there is way to enforce without enough violence to bother the Captain, perhaps? A shove, that does not get his attention. I haven't tried the hands thing yet. Maybe we should! Will you tie my hands together?
