Another survival

[dolorous_sensei]

1. "DODS guns... eyeballs... Hey, cut it out! I'm trying to work here!"

*Walt lifts his eyes from his notepad to yell toward the group of people playing three-on-three basketball in the hangar, near the line of Genoaces.

The 8th Genoace team glance at him for a second, before continue laughing and playing their game, leaving Walt back to his grumbling and writing.*



" ....grumble... mumble... .good for nothing... bunch of... insensitive..."



" grumble....stupid ....survivors.... Thank you for surviving this far...."

2.Talk to the basketball players? Or even join them?

Why don't you lead a squad into battle too, General? I thought you're a military commander.

[abugslife]

I do that all the time... at home. Scaraber was the only unit PEP could afford to send to Earth. And I have no official command over Unity Group forces.

But, from an unofficial point of view, you could say I am leading squads into battle all the time.

[dolorous_sensei]

Though, here, generals don't usually go into battle or directly lead squads themselves. Usually generals are more into making plans from behind the line and watch how their plans generally turn into the worst.

[abugslife]

That is not the Gebian way. Our leaders lead from the front line, armed with the most powerful weapons. In order to advance as an officer, you need to show both the ability to command and personal prowess.

If the plan of a general turns horribly wrong, then they are there to experience it personally.

[dolorous_sensei]

Have you experienced... a plan that's gone horribly wrong, General?

[abugslife]

...No. I made small mistakes, but never a huge, crushing one. Not in matters of war.

[dolorous_sensei]

How do you assign that, General? Is that fate? Luck? Your experience or prowess?

[abugslife]

A combination of all of those, except fate. I do not believe in destiny.

[dolorous_sensei]

Stop saying that. Destiny is like a monkey.

[abugslife]

[Deadpan.] A monkey.

[dolorous_sensei]

Destiny is like a monkey. If you mock it, it will throw shit at you.

[abugslife]

Life already does that gladly without any provocation.
