I thought you didn't want to talk about being a Cylon?

I assume smoking would kill me, since there are no more resurrections ships that I know of. But I think it would take a long time--we may be slightly more resistant to human diseases.

I do not know about you. I would advise against it.

[notmyfate]

I don't, but I--I just wondered.

Why would you advise against it?

Why am I asking you this?

[cylon_prophet]

I think smoking would be the same as poison to your body. But it's your body, Sam. If you want to poison it, go ahead.

[notmyfate]

You sound like an anti-smoking campaign they had on Caprica. They got a bunch of us to do it. And it didn't really work because half of the guys I knew were smokers, so it was really stupid.

I don't know why I'm telling you this.

[cylon_prophet]

I do. Because you want to talk to someone, Sam. You want to understand. It is only your fear that is keeping you from crossing the river. You fear the rapids when you do not understand that you can swim, and do not fear drowning.

[notmyfate]

See, Leoben, here's the thing.

You can't make me understand, because you don't know anything about me. You know about skinjobs and Centurions and Raiders, but not about me. So all I get when I hear you talk is a bunch of frakking nonsense and you saying I don't know.

So you might as well just shut up.

[cylon_prophet]

It does make me wonder why you and Kara wanted me to live here, if all you ever do is tell me to shut up.

It is a very good thing I'm a relatively patient man.

[notmyfate]

Let's get one thing straight, here.

Kara, for some reason known only to the Gods, wants you here. I don't get it, really, and I admit I thought it was something to do with the fact she liked to frak you. But it's obviously not, and I don't really care. And if Kara's telling you to shut up, maybe she's coming to her frakking senses.

You're not a man, Leoben.

[cylon_prophet]

We are both Cylons, Sam. You do not get to claim humanity any more than I do, just because you are of a different kind.

We are Cylon, and we are men. I fail to see why you can't grasp this concept.

Kara has the same difficulty listening to reason on occasion as you do. Unfortunately, you and I cannot engage in the same activity in which I use to make her listen.

[notmyfate]

Leoben, this is one of those times where if you get near me I'm going to punch you in the frakking face.

[cylon_prophet]

In my experience, that's all the time.

[burnandrave]

Stop it. For frak's sake, you sound like a couple of kids on the frakking playground.

Godsdamn it, just shut the frak up.
