text; anonymous (how rare)

[thephix]

I have some questions for those of you who have Weaponized either yourself or an ability/power that you possessed before coming to Exsilium.

Have you noticed any ill effects from your Weapon? Whether obvious or subtle, I'd even be interested in hearing about suspicions, if you don't have any solid evidence of ill effects. How have you and your abilities developed over time? And do you think you made the right choice?

If you're thinking about changing your Weapon to something like this, I'd be intereted in knowing your reasoning, too.

Feel free to answer some or all of the questions, and of course you can use the anonymous and/or private feature if you'd prefer.

Thank you for your time.

So do you choose not to fight?

[thephix]

I'd say that I pick my battles. I'm not suited to the Initiative's.

[Or... she'd prefer to work with the Exiles and make things better, there. It's where she can do the most good.]

[legal_eagle]

What don't you like about them?

[thephix]

That isn't what I said.

[legal_eagle]

Nope, but it's what I'm asking.

casually privates

[thephix]

[Fair, and she has no qualms about answering, since it's something she's discussed with a few people.]

They're not making the most effective use of the skills at their disposal.

tell me more about your privates actually no i regret that pun

[legal_eagle]

Okay. How so?

why would you

[thephix]

There are people that should be far more involved in the planning process, from my experience the missions aren't tailored to individuals' skills as well as they could be, and they should be making far more use of us here, considering how poorly we're defended against an actual attack.

You're right I regret nothing

[legal_eagle]

Do you think those problems are ones that can't be fixed?

i'm embarrassed to be seen with you

[thephix]

I think they could be fixed if the Initiative stopped treating us like pawns.

You say that but all I'm seeing is tagbacks

[legal_eagle]

Do you think that's what they do? Treat us like pawns?

I can't resist

[thephix]

Pawns. Soldiers. Whatever you'd like to call it.

We're certainly not involved in the decision making process.

[legal_eagle]

What if that changed?

[thephix]

Then we might actually win this war.

[legal_eagle]

I bet we could make that happen.

[thephix]

You aren't the first person to say that to me.

[legal_eagle]

Who else has?

[thephix]

I'd rather not reveal that without their permission. I'm sure you understand.

[legal_eagle]

What, do you think I'm secretly an Initiative shill?

[thephix]

No, but I also don't know you very well, and I'm not inclined to talking about other people behind their back.

[The real reason is that she has a crush on Babs and doesn't want to share her.]

[legal_eagle]

[i ship it]

Even though it'll go faster if I know who my allies are in this? Because this is something I'll accomplish, you know.

[thephix]

Shouldn't you be starting with who I am?

[legal_eagle]

Oh, I'll be able to figure that one out on my own.

[thephix]

How exactly do you plan to do that?

[legal_eagle]

That would be telling ;)

[Translation: SHE HAS NO FUCKING CLUE but at least that sounded good]
