All right, my two cents on the murder thing.

I like fighting. A lot. My biggest complaint about this bloody place is that there's not enough things to hit on a daily basis.

So if you decide to try and murder anyone while I'm around?

Thanks for the excuse.

As for Rex, why bother? The only reason he threw his little nanomite tantrum was for attention. Killing him'll only make him feel validated. If you really want to annoy him, ignore him. Or mock him mercilessly, which is more fun.

We need to talk. Come to my room, all right?

Yes, absolutely. Let us make light of that. Lashing out by an Inmate who had previously been nonviolent must, indeed, simply be a cry for attention.

And boasting about one's prowess on the battlefield is just a friendly disclaimer.

[bigbad]

He's the one who said it, mate, not me. Wardens made his quality of life worse and didn't pay attention for him. Sounds to me like your average cry for attention. Course, when normal people do it, doesn't usually involve taking over my mind.

One must find the distinction between what is for 'attention' and what is for 'help', Monsieur.

[bigbad]

Tell me, did you get hit with his nanomites?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

No, I did not.

Then sod off!

How very intimidating. You believe me unqualified to remark on the matter because I was not attacked? Because I have never been attacked before. I have never been influenced by an outside source.

Shove it up your arse and give it a good twist, you moron, and while you are at it, be a victim on your own time. You're a Warden first.

[bigbad]

I'm no one's bloody victim. But he took over my mind. Made me try and hurt people I care about. That's not something I forgive.

You can pity him and talk about how the poor wanker needs help. I'll mock him. And be glad I had this bloody revelation. I wanted to kill him before.

Then you are not the one to help him, by your own admission. But you have no affair in turning the minds of others away from seeing some validity in his claim.

Choosing not to kill him does not make you a better person, just more intelligent. It's far too temporary a solution in this place.

As for mocking him -- I cannot fault you that. I would just sooner not see the entire barge take your word as gospel.

[bigbad]

The entire Barge won't. Maybe some of the other ones who want to kill him will. And really, that's who this was aimed at.

So I'll repeat, sod off.

Filters, dumpling.

Why on earth are you trying to defend him? Unprovoked violence is only acceptable when it happens to other people?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Do not put words in my mouth. I never said that it was acceptable.
