Casting I.O.U. (Again)

[The GrandMage]

Actually, he does care. However, since death isn't permanent for him and Ari (You're assuming he sees Jamie as a friend) it's a secondary concern. While he'd like to leave with her before it all goes down, and avoid death, he's willing to run the risks.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

Of course, Hellion believes that death would be permanent for Sergeant Sparks as well.

Now that I think about it and Sergeant Sparks personality, I'm wondering if he will end up analyzing what you are doing and avoid using the electricity on Hellion or if he should just go ahead and let it happen, and later make Hellion's life a living hell. Either way, Hellion will die multiple times. Fun.

 

[The GrandMage]

Actually, he hasn't given a thought for whether or not death would be permanent or not for him.

In actuallity, even if he lived and the others die, Sparks would still have been the integral part that lead to not having three volunteers on hand, and would therefore have to go out of his way to get his job done.

It's really more about having Sparks do something that ends up going full circle to negatively affect him.

Demons enjoy making people their own worst enemies.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

Okay. I don't see how that's a problem for Sparks. Even if Sparks gets pissed about having to do the job that should have gone to the three volunteers, he's going to pin it on Hellion.

 

[The GrandMage]

Hellion wouldn't mind that at all.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

Hellion wouldn't mind that at all.

Back in the orginial Star Wars trilogy on Dagobah, when Luke says he isn't afraid, Yoda responds: "You will be. You will be." That is the case here.

By the way, I hope you don't mind if I wait for the other two to post before I reply in IC.

 

[The GrandMage]

I don't mind waiting. It's polite.

Unless you bust out a rod or an otter, you're not gonna scare Hellion.
What are you gonna do? Show him Hell?

"Actually, it's Htrae, not Hell. It's a common misconception that arises from cultural contamination. And I'm from there, thanks. I've seen it. And let me tell you, you have no conception of just how bad it is."

What happened to his other fears? Such as the fear of returning home, the fear of peanut butter sticking to the top of his mouth, and the fear of long words? What happened to them?

 

[The GrandMage]

He still has them.

They're just harder to threaten him with.

Long words are easy to use against him, but hard to threaten him with.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

Huh. That is interesting.

cats: Would Hellion's fears be listed in his file?

 

[cats]

What about cats now?

I can't believe you two are still going on about this.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

I had asked a question of you, cats.

Metagame talk can take a long time to sort out.

 

[The GrandMage]

I'm sure they're somhwere hidden amongst his psychological profile.

Sadly, the aforementioned profile is the length of a small novella and reads likes furniture instructions from Ikea.

If you really want to subject yourself to that torture, you can. But it's gonna take a while to get through.

 

[hybirdx]

You can't believe it? I've been head-desking my keyboard since the "Arbitrary" fiasco.

You've been hitting your head on your desk for almost 24 hours now? Wow. That's committment.

Eh, I'm sure Sergeant Sparks can find what he's looking for with a few taps on his fancy PDA. He did register Hellion on the roster of registered security volunteers, and the computer filled in all the data necessary, which just might include a synopsis of Hellion's psychological report.

Commitment and "Post-Overloaded Brain" lack of sanity has a tendency of being bordered along a very fine line.

Um, okay.

 

[hybirdx]

Jamie says no.

Card says yes... With a punch to the face.

Card wins.

 

[cats]

Go card GO!

I see the use of a colon confused me. In his file maybe, it depends on if he has seen a head case... I mean a head doctor on campus. You could pull such information off from a brain scan, the same type used in resurective cloning, but that would be a task only THE Computer can handle, and THE Computer has mental issues of its own making comunication dificult and hacking nearly impossible. You would have to force a major in THE Computer science to try and work out the information for you.

Incase some one doesn't know 95% of this is coming from a book I own.

 

[hybirdx]

I need that book... So I know what the hell is going on half the time.

I've learned to go with the flow. If there's something I don't understand, I ask questions. If it's too far over my head, I just accept it and go.

By the way, is James actually going to use the card or does Sergeant Sparks have to swipe it for him?

I still want the book.

Assuming the card won't change... ahem... Victims upon first contact, I'd say it's okay for Sparks to swipe.

Jamie would prefer not to deal with the homicidal credit card until after the purchase. In hopes to satiate the card's lust for purchasing things of course.

A synopsis of a psychological report of someone who literally lived in Hell, under s tortured, twisted existence, for the majority of his life, before being saved and raised in a Discordian Temple?

Here's what such a synopsis would look like:
"Subject hopelessly ultrasane. Suggested methods of interaction: Spooning, beating with a wombat, discourses on the meaning of Quantum Religion, dancing a reel, and falconry. Approach with extreme recklessness. Considered armed and harmlessly lethal."

Frightening thing is, that actually made a bit of sense.


Wonder what Jamie's synopsis would be, or Ari's for that matter.
