Who: Uchiha Sasuke+YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Huntress
When: Jan. 31

A few things.

There are a good number of fighters here or people otherwise trained in combat. I'm interested in observing people's abilities or training, or at least discussing what they can do. Spars could also be arranged if you want some exercise.

Secondly, I'll take recommendations for good literature available around here.

Finally, if you know how to knit or crochet then I'll offer you up to ten credits to watch you create something.

[ Yeah, this isn't weird. For anyone interested in action he'll be holed up in his room on the Huntress! ]

You're describing physical changes, which are of a lesser impact.

Is there a rift between vampires and humans?

[pneumo]

Well...we eat from them. They don't really like us? And a lot of vampires think of them just like food.

[eyeforaneye]

The ones that think of humans merely as a food source deserve that scorn, then, but it's idiotic to paint them all with the same brush.

It seems like it shouldn't be impossible to forge an alliance, but the same could be said of any two warring groups. I suppose it's mankind's nature to create conflict.

[pneumo]

I guess so, haha. I can't imagine a lot of people would like being bitten for blood either though! It hurts! They probably can't help feeling nervous.

[eyeforaneye]

Pain's unimportant. Everyone should learn to deal with something like that sooner or later.

The psychological effect is likely harder.

[pneumo]

Psychological effect?

[eyeforaneye]

The fear or disgust of being hurt or of having your life drained by another being.

[pneumo]

Oh...yeah, haha. I guess there's that too huh? Sorry we're so gross.

[eyeforaneye]

To me it doesn't make much difference, so I'm the wrong person to apologize to. You do what you have to to survive, and in many ways it's no different than how humans act.

We consume the products of other animals without killing them; if you do the same then there shouldn't be a grand issue over it.

[pneumo]

I've never! [ That he recalls. ] You guys are too fun to do that too--and it's gross. I used to be one of you anyway so wouldn't it be super-weird if I became a murderer out of nowhere??

[ Be carefree, be jovial. That's the best way to handle these sorts of things. ]

[eyeforaneye]

People become murderers for less. That part wouldn't shock me.

I just don't think you're so different to humans that it should be focused on by them.

[pneumo]

That's so sweet...♥ [ WHAT A NICE GUY, SASUKE. Look at you go. ]

[eyeforaneye]

...




Saying you're like a human isn't a compliment.

[pneumo]

Why not?? I really like humans! They're funny and they smell great... [ And Sascha doesn't remember his own time as a human, so there's that. It's kind of like living vicariously through them when he spends time around them. ]

[eyeforaneye]

A candle smells good. A forest smells good. Does that mean I should like them? Even then, those are inanimate objects without human personalities.

Humans are also too varied to be judged so broadly. You're being closed-minded. [ He will rain on this parade, he has to. It's his job. ]

[pneumo]

...Don't trees give air and stuff though? You should like them.

[ Because that's the part he's going to focus on here. ]

[eyeforaneye]

I'm indicating the weakness of an argument based upon an olfactory sense, not arguing that trees aren't beneficial to mankind. Learn to follow a logical train of thought.

[pneumo]

I don't know what olafactry means.

[eyeforaneye]

[ ... oh god it's like talking to Naruto again. ]

Olfactory. The descriptor for the system affecting the perception of smell.

[pneumo]

[ Life is hard when you have amnesia okay?? Gosh. ]

So...I'm judging things by smell.

[ Hmm, hmm... ]

That sounds right.

[eyeforaneye]

[ Trust me, Sasuke's life would be improved markedly by amnesia. ]

And that's alright with you? You believe that's a suitable way to do things?

[pneumo]

Well...it's what I know. [ It's not like he remembers anything else to guide him through life. He has precious few past experiences to draw upon. ]

Maybe not all humans are nice, but they're definitely fun.

[eyeforaneye]

You think attempts on your life are fun?

[pneumo]

Well...maybe not that part. But I meant the other stuff they do!

[eyeforaneye]

You'll have to be more specific than that. What do you find fun about what they do?
