I hope this isn't an uncomfortable question, but did you ever discover why you had died?

[Private] majorum_pride August 16 2011, 22:56:18 UTC

You mean when I was shot- oh, you mean the one here. I went back to the greenhouse and found nothing.

[Private] 19centconstable August 16 2011, 23:00:14 UTC

That's quite disconcerting.

I'm sorry you were shot. I've been shot as well, and even though I was wearing undergarments which stopped the bullet it was quite painful.

[Private] majorum_pride August 16 2011, 23:06:03 UTC

Survival is important to my people. If I stumbled into something, I'm the fool for not being more alert to my surroundings. But I doubt anyone here that would hate me enough to kill me wouldn't have bragged about the fact afterwards.

...Undergarments? [He's used to Magog armor. Not undergarments.]

[Well that was interesting. T'Pol arches an eyebrow.] It sounds as if a way of life has become a hobby.

majorum_pride August 16 2011, 23:09:05 UTC

Still a way of life, but the rewards for competition have become less significant. Not that the accumulation of knowledge isn't to be appreciated, but the inability to make use of it is frustrating.

with_discipline August 17 2011, 20:25:16 UTC

Surely there are other ways to make use of the knowledge you've acquired here.

[Rhade is quite a cynic sometimes and still doesn't think he'll graduate.] I have no offspring to pass it onto, or even an makeshift Pride. Mostly, I've been storing it on my flexi.

[Private] DID SOMEONE SAY GAMES?!? expectremorse August 16 2011, 23:38:18 UTC

[Hoffman's video feed flickers on and he just stares. Just one, long, unhinged stare.]

[Private] It's his favorite word! majorum_pride August 16 2011, 23:42:10 UTC

[And he stares back. Hi there, Hoffman.]

Re: [Private] Hoffman has ears like a fucking hawk for that word. expectremorse August 16 2011, 23:45:59 UTC

[More staring for a bit. Then.] Would you say that there has to be an equal playing field before someone proves themselves superior? Two people given equal chances and opportunity to win a specific prize?

[Private] majorum_pride August 16 2011, 23:50:08 UTC

Equality is an illusion. You can't be an individual and equal, and no one will receive equal chances.

Excellent. As you're one of my favorite people to be judged by.

Would you prefer your room or mine?

It starts as a pile, so set up isn't particularly difficult.

In dancing, someone always has to lead or choose the music.
