You've bypassed the firewalls, all the security systems. You, a useless mongrel, are in Jupiter's mind and you can feel excitement throbbing through you like a drug. Tingling from

[because he seriously thinks he's going to be sick. This is not how you treat other humans, dammit!]

Would you like for me to lie to you then?[His tone is mild. It doesn't seem to disturb him anymore.]

[ignite_the_sky]

What sort of twisted individual would treat another like that?

[He's seen people shot at close range, burned to death, maimed, and mutilated in times of war, but that..? That isn't war, just abuse. And it sickens him to think that there's a world out there where this sort of thing happens.]

You're not from my world, so I'll forget you said that.

I'm a mongrel. I could have died of starvation or exposure or violence. I chose to live. I chose something better than what I had. [Yes. He's angry now and doesn't understand why people can't grasp his caste system.]

[for at least a minute, there is silence. perhaps interrupted half-way by some noise from quatre's throat if katze can hear it. that's quatre wanting to say his name and realizing...he doesn't know!

You should... Check your post.

Most people don't seem aware when their Forge...does that.

I'm, I'm fine - you didn't tell me your name.

Katze. Just Katze. But you did give me your name.

Don't trouble yourself over it. What you saw, I mean.

Makes me think of BDSM Ken dolls. Tell me, got a couple Barbies there?

[kit_katze]

[Blank stare. He has no idea who Ken and Barbie are.]

This fucking thing broken or something?
