[what if you have zero interest in plot and just want to bother intensity like an asshole]

This is what you spend all your time doing?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Intensity would never turn away his asshole brethren. Especially this particular one]

Absolutely. Name three things that are a better use of my time.

[purrrnicious]

[swishing her tail :3]

Improving our food situation, earning your release, or I'd accept payment of tribute to yours truly as a solid option, too.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

"Earning my release?"

I didn't know there was a price attached to satisfying your curiosity, Red String.

[purrrnicious]

Yeah –– I mean, wasn't there a guy that escaped from here? Maybe the freaks up on high got sick of him or whatever, but I figured you'd wanna do the same and head on home, right?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Just starts laughing. Cartoon villain laughing]

Quite the opposite. I plan to make this place my permanent residence. Once I do a little house cleaning of the current establishment.

[purrrnicious]

[Someday she'll remember her own cartoon villain laugh and maybe they can compare notes.]

What? You want to stay in this dump?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Not Tokyo-F. But I'll take Hell once I dispose of the current management.

[purrrnicious]

Pff, seriously? Big claims, but I don't see how you're gonna pull that one off.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Of ye of little faith.

If you're still around when I do, I'll make sure you have popcorn and a front row seat.

[purrrnicious]

Ooooh, how generous––planning to be a benevolent ruler, huh? But I'm hurt, I thought I ranked better than just deserving a good view.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Penthouse suite comes after. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Unless you wanted some sort of ranking. Lieutenant perhaps? That has a nice ring to it.

[purrrnicious]

I'm already a Force Captain, apparently.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Oh, so you do have leadership experience. I bet that looks good on your resume.

But's a variation I've never heard of. Not surprising - coming from your world.

[purrrnicious]

More to the point, you just offered me a demotion.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then I'll match the competition. Is that what you want to hear?

[purrrnicious]

Shouldn't you offer to beat the competition?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

My military hierarchy is a little rusty. What beats a captain?

General? Admiral? ... Prince?

[purrrnicious]

"Admiral" is naval, duh. General would be a higher rank, but they were pretty simple back in the Fright Zone. Force Captains answered directly to the Commander, second only to Lord Hordak himself.

[doesn't know what chocolate, holidays, or parties are

but knows all about military dictatorships yeeeeaaaaaah]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Look. All of his military positions come from Star Trek or some shit. What do you want from this nerd]

Gesundheit.

Well, I already have a Commander in my ranks. So if there's only one - then Force Captain it remains.

[purrrnicious]

Pass. I don't settle.

Hmm~ maybe the title I should reach for is 'usurper'?



[Laughs, and mimes swiping in his direction with her claws, playful]

Think you need to be dethroned now and then to keep that ego in check.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[He watches the swipe, but doesn't flinch. In fact, his smug grin just gets that much smug-ger]

You're welcome to try.

Everyone else who's said the same thing to me has proven to be quite a let-down. Maybe you'll be the exception.

[purrrnicious]

Uh, how's that? No one can usurp what you don't even have yet, so how can they have already screwed it up?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

They broke, Red String. They're not capable of usurping anything.

[purrrnicious]
