reappearance for theatrical_muse
What do you see when you look in the mirror?I see a young girl, barely a woman, with blue eyes and dark hair and spots. I see an old, grey-haired man. I see a blonde woman. I see a pilot. I see a gymnast. I see a dreamer and a politician and a scientist

No matter what it tells you as your other lives or whatever; it owes you. Alot. So if it doesn't like that, well tough luck for it. I say, tell it to get off it's high and mighty horse...or whatever it's resting on and suck it up! You're in charge here, not Dax. No matter what it might say in retort just tell it to shut up and kiss your spotted butt!! >=P

Ezri smiles wryly.
I can't ignore what the symbiont thinks of me. It's like having a second mind, a second system of reasoning. Ostensibly, I'm in control, but there are eight of them and only one of me. Sometimes I watch myself doing things that...
She pauses, biting her lip, suddenly feeling a sword hilt in her hands, the way her image was reflected back to her in the shining metal--and any number of other images, memories from the last two years, none quite so drastic as the first, but all subtle reminders that somehow, in some way, her life is no longer her own.
Things that I never would have done as Ezri Tigan.
I mean, I don't hate Dax. Not at all. It deserves...respect. More than I give it sometimes, I think. It's older than I am. It's probably wiser, too.
She smiles, just a little bitterly. Although you could say that that's not hard to ( ... )

Damar winces slightly at her words understanding though on a completely different level what she means.
In other worse you have the "board of directors" or in my case the senate around all the time whether you like it or not. How do you not go mad? I can barely handle them myself and they're not even in my head (Thank the Great Gul for that!)
He furrows a brow as she explains the unusual behavior she sometimes encounters and it causes him to turn a little protective. You mean to say the symbiote controls you sometimes? How can you stop it? It ( ... )

Damar furrows a brow as he studies her for a moment.
I never realized you're culture used to be so biased. Although it's not like we should talk we're certainly not better. So why did she believe that poverty played a role in the bonding? Though I can only imagine how awkward that must have been for Torias when his turn came...
Well it wasn't like I really stood up and said anything either at first. I just stood by like a helpless idiot instead.
He smirks at her sheepish remarks as he chuckles.
I still believe you did it. Maybe the motivation was different at the time but you're not the sort to stand by and let another needlessly die!
He definately looks sheepish now to her come back as he mutters something about not being a hero and being the victim of foolish tall tales.
Perhaps but only after sending millions more to needless deaths...Though everyone seems to conviently forget that.
He remarks with a sigh before snorting at her last remark. Only because you saved mine first. If you hadn't ( ... )

What a load of crap. I'm sorry, thats just...
He utters an explitive in his native tongue as he shakes his head.
Do they feel that wisdom only comes with money? Book smarts goes only so far, when it all comes down to it street sense is just as important, more so sometimes if they ask me. But then I don't imagine they would.
He snorts in disgust.
Unbelievable. People pay too much attention to rank title and house. Look at me! I'm not educated at all in the arts of politics, I don't have the skill of fine speach and I'm from a home that is considered "lower working class". All my life I was a "ground pounder" grunt as they'd say. Now I'm considered a ruler of an empire. Granted my situation is rare but it goes to show that title and rank means crap by comparison to a man's skills and capabilities ( ... )
