Don't know about the rest of you, but back home, November 11th is called Veterans Day. Or Remembrance Day or-- well there's a lot of names for it. Mostly it's to honour the servicemen and women that have dedicated themselves to defending their countries or homeworlds, either in war or peacetime

[Ridley is perched somewhere. He sneers at the camera, at Thom's words. When he speaks, its in a didsainful, mocking tone.] Celebrating the lives of those too dull-witted to keep themselves alive? Such a human concept.

I suppose I should start paying tribute to all the livestock I devour as well?

Or you can shut the fuck up.

[... you know, Thom doesn't usually swear. But that was like a very masterful push of all his buttons at once.]

Oh oh, did I touch a nerve, soldier? [He grins. Binnggooooooooooo.]

I wish the federation soldiers from my universe had prattled on about honor and other such noise so much. It would've made them so much easier to get the drop on.

So you got your ass kicked by a bunch of humans and now the only thing you can do is bandy words with a total stranger? Looks like I ain't the only one hitting on some nerves, asshole.

Of course not. I slaughter them by the shipload anyway.

It just would've been easier.

Sounds cowardly, if you ask me. You ever haul your ass off your ship for this glorious conquest, or are you content to hide out and let technology do all the work for you?

Why, that's my favorite part! Watching a ship break into pieces or using orbital bombardment is only amusing so many times before it gets repetitive.

The screams, however. Those never get boring.

[thom_293]

Yeah? You ever tango with anything that can make you scream, pal?

[deadlyenforcer]

With laughter, maybe.

[thom_293]

We'll see how well you laugh with my fist crammed down your throat.

[Because fuck you.]

I got places to be right now. Like, you know. Honouring the dead. Let's try this again tomorrow.

Cowardice.

You really are a soldier.

Just don't feel like kicking somebody's ass should fall higher on my priority list than respecting my comrades' memories, that's all. Call it whatever you want.

[deadlyenforcer]

I will. [Grin.]

See you tomorrow.
