[As soon as the video feed turns on, it's obvious that the good commander is pretty pissed off.

She jabs her finger hard at the screen, teeth bared.] Dr. Sponde, Initiative, whoever the hell you are.

What the hell just happened to us all? I don't know about you, but I don't exactly find the idea of having to murder my friends to keep them from killing me the ideal situation in training. I don't care if it was a simulated situation or not.

[She gives a low huff, shaking her head.] The entire situation is ridiculous and out of hand.

I'm not feeling particularly inclined to help these fools change their reality at the moment.

Video

[twiceadays]

I need some answers about what happened.

Video

[andhishat]

I'll be getting those as well, because if I find it was yet another bastard who feels their cause or power give them the right to play with others, I will be having words with them.

[Shepard makes a noise before sitting back and crossing her arms over her chest.] It's one thing to have us volunteer to test out a new program, but I highly doubt they got anyone's permission on this.

The level of disorganization is becoming increasingly irritating.

I don't recall being asked much of anything. [She's clenching her fist, a bit of steam rising from it as it glows] And I've had it up to here with being abducted to serve other people's cause with my blood and pain without so much as a would you be so kind.

[twiceadays]

This wasn't even serving their cause. The wonderful doctor who was quick to slap his name on the program said it was all for us. [She rolls her eyes and makes a noise of disgust.]

[She releases the magic, then takes a breath. Just stopped herself from giving her room a new door] I'm so glad he had me murder my friends for my own good.

Nothing like a good dose of psychological torture to make yourself feel more confident in your fighting skills.

[andhishat]

Doesn't anyone give cliched inspirational speeches anymore? I miss those.

Video

[twiceadays]

You've got to pay extra for that kind of experience, actually.

Video

[andhishat]

And here we find the root of the problem of most revolutions these days. They are more interested in squeezing you out of your last copper piece than preaching to you about their noble cause.

[twiceadays]

Welcome to the fine political side of every war. It's not the bigwigs who deliver the inspirational speeches, but those who actually lead into battle.

[andhishat]

All the more reason I'm glad I was able to avert the last few wars people have tried to stir up. I'd prefer to leave armies and soldiers to those qualified to lead, and stick to slaying monsters and mad conquerors.

Video

[twiceadays]

I prefer my armies and soldiers and capable leaders who aren't idiots.

Video

[andhishat]

Perhaps we should petition for a change in leadership.

Video

[twiceadays]

I'd say our vote wouldn't matter.

Video

[andhishat]

Once more elective leadership has failed me. I shall have to fall back on my old alternative, superior firepower.

Video

[twiceadays]

[A chuckle.] Maybe this will force them to reevaluate the people they have working for them.

Video

[andhishat]

One could hope, though large operations like this seem a magnet for incompetent underlings.

[She may have run into a few poorly run shadowy organizations in her time]

Video

[twiceadays]

That's something we'll never actually avoid, but this reeks of sabotage more than incompetence.

[Her too, bro. Her too.]
