[040] I had visions, I was in them

I got an idea. A brilliant fucking idea.

How about we just...don't get off when the ship stops. I mean...it's pretty much always some shithole, an' even when it isn't you can't stick around. So what's the point in gettin' off at all? Just tie yourself down if you gotta, or stay off the damn deck period, and fuck it.

Then at least we wouldn't have everybody so fuckin' pissed about it all the time.


[PRIVATE to Lua]

How long I gotta stay on this shit again?


[PRIVATE to Seth]

Can we do something? Like...I don't even care what. But I'm going fucking stir crazy over here. And you owe me.

Yeah, but...you could get back on at least. Once you figured out where it was.

[truth_is_cold]

Generally we couldn't. Most of us were dragged away and used for our captors decrepit laziness or vile entertainment before we had a chance to retaliate. I'm only grateful that it wasn't for food or procreation.

[Sorry for the overly practical dialog, Richie. He really hated that last port.]

In any case, it's incredibly foolish to place the blame on a victim for when something bad happens to them. It is the fault of the perpetrators.

[notafuckingnut]

...oh.

Well I'm not really saying it's your fault. I'm just saying everybody should quit complaining about everything all the time. Just do something about it.

[Because he's never complained about anything before. Right.

Victim blaming? What victim blaming. Who does that.]

[truth_is_cold]

[Rhade sort of looks one way. Then the other. Opens his mouth. Closes it.

Goes on.]

You do realize you're complaining about people complaining.

[notafuckingnut]

Yeah, but that's different.

[truth_is_cold]

Well, at least I know you have the self-interest down. Though you may want to work on expanding it. Most people are more inclined to suffer or even care about your opinions if you at least acknowledge their discomfort.

...I thought I tagged this already. ughhh work.

[notafuckingnut]

I acknowledge it...

[truth_is_cold]

This is really more of an open dismissal than acknowledgement. [Plus, you know, telling them that it's their own fault.]

[notafuckingnut]

Whatever.

[Because that's...really the only way he handles an argument he didn't start.]
