An' yet I'm feelin' a distinct difference.

[supraliminally]

Are you calling me immature?

[bad_in_latin]

Callin' me old, kid.

[supraliminally]

You're well-suited to be a Prime.

[bad_in_latin]

Good. Then I'm doin' it right.

[supraliminally]

[siiiiiiiiiiighs, rolling over so that she's lying on her stomach.]

Well, so you are. At least sit with me, since we have things to talk about.

[bad_in_latin]

You got a topic in mind?

[ sits ]

[supraliminally]

[yay]

Hmm. How does Uruk seem to you?

[bad_in_latin]

You fishin' for an alliance?

[supraliminally]

I was thinking we should get rid of them first, actually. They're hostile. Then again, I think Aristophanes might be weaker.

[bad_in_latin]

How d'you propose doin' that?

[supraliminally]

Get as many supplies from them as we can from this season, cut off their information, team up with our allies and kill them off. Starting with the Champion, I suppose, to make it harder for them to retaliate.

[bad_in_latin]

... First we need us a decision on allies. I ain't heard from everyone yet. Reckon we need us a good long atlk.

[supraliminally]

[GLAD YOU'RE ON BOARD WITH OPERATION: BRUTALITY, BERGEN]

I agree with that. And obviously when we decide on that we'll need to discuss the matter with them as well. I imagine Ichibei is more eager to take out Axum, since they've bad blood.

[bad_in_latin]

[ WELL. it's practical okay. ]

You agreein' with Vespera's notion about a true alliance with 'em?

[supraliminally]

[looks vaguely confused]

Well, obviously not a true alliance, since we'll be betraying them. But in the sense that we'll be working together until then...

[bad_in_latin]

Vespera wants a fair fight at the end.

[supraliminally]

He most certainly does not.

[bad_in_latin]

We talkin' to the same Vespera here?

[supraliminally]

[uGGGHH]

Absolutely not.

[bad_in_latin]

That's the width an' breadth of his suggestion, kid. I ain't decided one way or t'other yet.

[supraliminally]

Did he say why, though? I don't understand what advantage it could offer.

[bad_in_latin]

Ain't advantage, kid. S'fairness.

[supraliminally]

[OBVIOUSLY AGITATED but trying to keep cool about it. uugh.]

No. Absolutely not. I won't accept any strategy other than the most optimal one. Even if we could scrape out a win without it -- a win by the skin of our teeth isn't enough. We have to win this without losing anyone. Have you thought about how difficult that's going to be? We can't afford to give even an inch more than we must.

[bad_in_latin]

[ his tone cools instantly ]

It ain't your decision.
