'He as a conqueror will call the conquered
Evil, but what will be the Good he gives?
Were I the victor, his works would be deemed
The only evil ones. And you, ye new
And scare-born mortals, what have been his gifts
To you already, in your little world?
But few; and some of those but bitter.'

[Naoya's tone is calm, cool--almost pleasant for once. He recites the monologue as if from distant memory--easily and without real inflection. He sighs, and then chuckles faintly.]

I never did like Byron's style, but I'm finding it on my mind, as of late. Perhaps there's some comparison to be made...but far be it from me to stretch anything into allegory.

[He lets out a slow breath, tapping his fingers on his table. He doesn't like asking for help, but this is necessary.]

On a completely unrelated note, are there any of those...unaffiliated with either side who have use of a programmer? I'd hoped to not have to wait tables again after college.
