[Waver looks a little agitated in this particular broadcast to the network. Sure, he'd participated in a war before, but this was a completely different story. After all, he chose to be the last war he was involved in. ]

So I get out of one war and have to participate in another one? At least the last one had something worth fighting for as a prize. What do these Initiate guys offer you if you're successful? Look, I'm not a fighter. You can ask the last guy I fought with and he'll laugh and wonder what the hell you could possibly want with a runt like me. You've got the wrong guy, I'm telling you.


[He pauses a moment, looking thoughtful.]

...But I suppose me telling them that isn't going to do much good. So I guess it would be better if I just toughed it out until they either reach their goal or someone strong enough comes along and puts an end to this.

I mean, you could learn to fight. Just because you're not born with special abilities doesn't mean you can't.

[This, coming from a girl with a massive boomerang visibly strapped to her back, is probably somewhat biased.]

I think that they want what they told us in the beginning. To win this strange war full of subterfuge and establish peace and harmony, more or less. It's not a bad thing to want, and in fact, assuming they're telling us everything, I think it's a noble cause.

The only thing is that their army is drafted in the worst way possible.

[catchmewhiteandnerdy]

...Yeah, you've got a point there. But you see, that's kind of hard for me to take at face value considering the hell I just got out of.

[He wants to take the "not born with special abilities" part personally and let her know that he could do magic and wasn't a total weakling, but realistically, he knows she's just saying the same thing he'd said in the long report he'd written up, so he holds his tongue.]

[taijiya]

The war you mentioned?

[catchmewhiteandnerdy]

...Not so much the war itself, but specific events that happened in this war that weren't exactly normal.

[taijiya]

Ah. Well, you may be right in that they have ulterior motives. But the current simplest way to guarantee a return home is to win, it seems.

[Which is troubling, if the Initiate has ulterior motives and malicious designs. Sango wants to go home, but does she want to go home enough to assist in the victory of those motives?]

[catchmewhiteandnerdy]

I guess the main thing would be to try to figure out if they had ulterior motives and what those motives might be eh?

[He sighs]

Not to make it sound easy or anything

[taijiya]

Well, like I said. They apparently have a spokesperson now.

[catchmewhiteandnerdy]

And just who this spokesperson?

[taijiya]

A woman by the name with Medusalith. She seems to have a sizeable ego and even more hair.

[catchmewhiteandnerdy]

...She already sounds thoroughly unpleasant.

[taijiya]

She's not that bad, from my brief interactions, and it seems she'll be acquiring assistants soon.
