Ah, certainly. About what?

The Captain | Unhackable

[thewarisover]

Thank you, sir.

May I be frank?

Roy | Unhackable

[notrueking]

Certainly.

Was it necessary to dispose of the saboteurs in such a fashion? I don't know whether any of the delegates that we have on boards saw the aftermath, but I am sure that if some of them did, they were undoubtedly uncomfortable. Or displeased.

They were a threat to the ship. I suppose I may have been somewhat overzealous in my actions, but do you think they would have shown any mercy had they been in my position?

I have heard no complaints from the delegates, which would be somewhat surprising if they had seen anything.

The Captain | Unhackable

[Pause.]

They would not have, but that does not discount the fact that they were horrendously outclassed.

[You could have been the better man. But saying that directly might not be a smart idea, huh?]

A group of fit young men against a tired sixty-year-old man? I'd hardly call that 'outclassing' them.

The Captain | Unhackable

[thewarisover]

[Tell that to the coroners who checked those bodies.]

...That's all, sir. You did act in the best interests of the ship. I acknowledge that.

Roy | Unhackable

[notrueking]

...I'm glad you understand that.
