video, after the battle

[flarp]

[ See Vriska Serket. See Vriska Serket furious. ]

What the hell was that?! Aren't we supposed to be the heroes here? Heroes don't just retreat when shit hits the whirling device! We could have taken those guys! Who cares if you died a couple times? That's what semi-immortality is for! They didn't create a way to bring us back because they were eight-hundred percent sure we would never die!

[ She'd had her own fair share of deaths thanks to her weapon being on the fritz, but you don't get any stronger from winning a fight with a weak foe. It still hurt her pride, sure, but she's positive she gained a lot more from her losses than she, well, lost. ]

Total bullshit. Buuuuuuuullshit. I bet they planned this all along to make us think that we're all weak! Too bad, because it didn't work on me! I know we had those other assholes backed into a corner! We could have taken them, easy.

If you ran right on back here with your tail between your legs at the first call of retreat, I hope the Initiative kicks you out for being a sorry excuse for a hero! We could have won, definitely. Nobody's ever won a war in a night! They threw in the towel way too early. What a pathetic excuse for a fight!

You know... if they planned this, it would have been to demonstrate what none of the other transports have believed before about going home being an unfeasible desire and the United Earth actually posing a threat to planets besides this one.

[flarp]

But none of that even matters because we would have won and crushed the entire United Earth in our claws, right there and then!

[speakveryclearly]

The Masked were much more on their proverbial game than normally - on par with the middle tiers of transports. And they outnumbered us a hundred to one. Asserting we could have beaten them given enough time is assuming the United Earth doesn't have exactly the same revival technology the Initiative does, which I seriously doubt.

[flarp]

So we should just fight our way straight to their base of operations and smash all their fancy revival technology!

[speakveryclearly]

...That's actually a pretty good idea. You should take that to DITR.

[flarp]

[ That seems to quell her attitude; compliments often do. She takes a moment to mentally pat herself on the back for yet another great idea. ]

Of course it's a good idea! I came up with it, didn't I?

[speakveryclearly]

It's not a good idea because you came up with it. It's a good idea on its own merits. That idea could be an orphaned grub raised by an adult troll instead of a lusus and it would still be very good.

[flarp]

It's a good idea because I have only good ideas, duh. It's good because it came out of my mouth. If it came out of anyone else's mouth it would still be a good idea, but nobody has thought ahead as much as I have. I'm on top of this entire situation!

[speakveryclearly]

There is still quite a bit more thinking ahead you could do.

[biwinning]

No, it'th a horrible idea. Kanaya, don't encourage her, that ith theriouthly an awful idea.

[speakveryclearly]

Well, obviously the idea needs tactical work - but you have to admit if they do have a revival device, destroying it would be top-notch.

[biwinning]

And tho we destroy it, and then they just rebuild it, and we wasted life and resourceth for no reason. In a time travel fight, you can't destroy. You have to undo. That aside, we don't even know if that'th what they're uthing.

[speakveryclearly]

See, these kinks would get worked out during the DITR evaluation process.

At least it's a better idea than "we should actually throw three hundred soldiers at a apocalypse being conducted by millions of enemies over and over just because they can't die".

[biwinning]

Whatever. If you want to tell the troll who thinks that breaking a guysth legsth will make him a thtronger perthon that her idea ith totally thound and makesth perfect thense, fine, but no one else will.

[flarp]

Nobody asked you! Anything. Ever.

[biwinning]

I'm thorry, I know it'th hard being head of the Thtupid Thuggestion Committee, but ath head of the Reasonable and Logical Council, it'th my responsibility to tell you that you are being stupid.

[flarp]

Apology accepted! I know it's hard to admit when you're wrong, but you're doing a bang up job! Considering that you are wrong no less than one-hundred percent of the time.

By the way, when I storm the United Earth base and raid all their sweetest loot, I'm not going to get you anything! Not even a big old stick to try and whack that face of yours back into something that doesn't resemble a grubling's decaying corpse.

[biwinning]

Go ahead. In fact, I highly suggest you go out to the UE alone. Right now, even. Go on.

You know Vriska, not everyone really likes to die over and over! It hurts and it can be very depressing and sometimes the best thing to do is take a step back and rethink what you are doing. Even I know that!

[flarp]

Sounds like the weaky weak words of a weaky weakling to me!

[fintastic]

No it sounds like someone who actually uses their thinkpan to think about things that need thinking about! I know you are impulsive, but I also know that you are smart enough to understand this.

Finally, someone with some fucking sense

I agree with you 100%

They said retreat and I told them to fuck off. I stayed out here till I was killed.

[flarp]

That's the spirit!
If I had a choice, I would have stayed out there until we won!
Which we would have.
I don't see why our whole army had to suffer because a couple weenies got their asses handed to them a few too many times.

[charming_jerk]

I don't think we would have won. But i gladly would have keep trying time and again until I was dead for good.

We just don't have that kind of firepower or shit like that to fight them all. but that doesn't mean i'm gonna give up until we wipe them all off the map before they do it to us instead.
