okay so i have some questions for the general public
which is you guys

first: if you sent someone to jail on their birthday but they probably forgave you should you be worried that they or a family member is gonna
i don't know
come after you
or something like that
not that it happened
but hypothetically i guess

second: anyone have any thoughts on being called "puppy"?
is it a compliment?
an insult?
i kind of need some outside opinions here

uhhh
yeah that's it
thanks

Because it's an excellent way to torture someone longer. When they think you're going to do something and you don't, they're constantly on their guard and worrying about it. That alone is a pretty damn good punishment. Then, when they finally think they're safe and you're not going to hit them, you do. Makes it all the worse.

[grilletto]

damn
i didn't think about it that way
do you think if it's something like that
they tell you what you did?
because i'm still just...
what if you misunderstand what you're being punished for
you know?

[suspecteverything]

Why ruin the fun by telling?

[Seriously, Jules, stop being an ass. Other families aren't as screwed up as yours.]

[grilletto]

just because it’s fun for them doesn’t mean it’s fun for me!!
if someone is gonna fuck with me i deserve to know why!

[suspecteverything]

That could be a ridiculously long list my friend.

[grilletto]

look i don't want to be rude or anything
but i'm pretty sure that i'm mostly a nice guy
there's no way someone has a whole list of shit they want to get me back for

[ yes mista, there is always that possibility ]

[suspecteverything]

Not a list for why they want to get back at you. A list for why they would choose not to tell you. They may not even have a reason to get back at you to have a list for why they wouldn't say anything.

[grilletto]

that seems like a really shitty list
i mean what if it’s literally just
because i didn’t feel like telling you

[suspecteverything]

Now you're starting to get the picture.

Just remember, most beings aren't quite that big of assholes. I just happen to know a lot of them.

[grilletto]

dude i don't know
i've dealt with plenty of assholes
there's no shortage of them

[suspecteverything]

No. Just a variety of levels to them. The particular assholes I'm talking about in my example are basically the top level by a long shot.

[grilletto]

okay fair enough
what would you do then?
if it were you?

[suspecteverything]

It's not me. I'd never assume someone would forgive me. Generally I expect the guy to show up and try to rip me limb from limb. He'd have a right to too.

[grilletto]

yeah but you have to like
pretend that it's you dude
but you'd just let them do it?
not even fight back?

[suspecteverything]

Minsid hell, no. If anyone is taking me out, I fully plan on making them pay a pretty hefty price for it. I'll be doing my damned best to take them with me if I have to go.

[grilletto]

yeah see that's more what i meant
that's why i'm really hoping things don't go that way
besides they're part of my boss' family
so i'd probably double screwed if he found out i shot someone in his family...

[suspecteverything]

Uh, yeah. You're toast, drey. If I were you, I'd assume your boss already knows and watch your back.

[grilletto]

nah my boss isn't even here
he's back home and i'm pretty sure people there don't know what happens here

sorry but
what's a drey?

[suspecteverything]

Then why the minsid hell are you worrying about it?

Dude, brother in a non-related way. Something along those lines.

[grilletto]

just because he's not here doesn't mean he won't show up

okay so drey is dude
what minsid
you've said that twice

where are you from?

[ wow way to totally switch gears, mista ]

[suspecteverything]

It's an Andarion swear word basically.

The United Systems. Born on Andaria. Stayed on a few different planets over the years and currently live on a space station.

[grilletto]

i'm not sure what an andarian is
but i guess you being on a space station before kind of helped you adjust here
that's pretty cool

[suspecteverything]

I'm an Andarion. It's a species.

Can't say I'm adjusted here. 'Course I'm not adjusted anywhere in anyway.

[grilletto]

a species?
so you're an alien then or something?
i mean i guess we're all aliens here
i'm pretty sure i had that talk with someone here once

[suspecteverything]

"Alien" isn't a word we use in the United Systems. The entire definition of it is a moot point when you come from a place where travel between multiple plants within multiple space systems is the daily norm.
