007 // blink and you'll miss a revolution
Who: Dorian!
Broadcast: Fleet-wide!
Action: On the Three Twins
When: 5/26, night
Well, now that we've all gotten our fill of rampant debauchery, I thought I might pose a little question to you, Fleet. A more...somber question.
[Dorian looks considering for a moment, and when he speaks, he talks with his hands as much as his mouth. It seems like a subject he's certainly into, that's for sure.]
What would you do if, for example, you disagreed with the politics of your home? What measures would you go to? At what cost would you ensure that things were righted, were changed for the better?
[He raises a brow.]
Would you kill for it? Would you bring about chaos and disarray because the end would justify those means, as it were? How many deaths can be justified by a revolutionary change? 10? 100? Thousands? If it were for the greater good, how many lives could you sacrifice?
[He brings the hand back to his chin, thinking.]
Color me curious. What are your politics there?

no subject
It's times like this, Felix, that I can scarcely believe any time has passed at all since I was debating in the lower floors in Minrathos and discussing reform with you in the study until the early morning.
What would you suggest?
no subject
I would suggest protecting the defenseless first, then implementing mass reform. Magisters who are threatened are likely to lash out.
The question is how to manage that protection.
