... I think I'm staying inside for the rest of this experiment.


[OOC: Emil really, really dislikes the Martel Knights for what they did in Palmacosta and Luin, so he gets to be Magnar for the rest of the week.]

I can't completely hate the Vanguard... not when Richter and Marta were both a part of it. And, even though they're going about it the wrong way, I can understand why people would support them. They want the Sylvaranti to be treated equally.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

That was a joke. I'm well-aware of your feelings on the Vanguard and Martel Knights.

[knightofratatosk]

... I knew that.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[knightofratatosk]

And Richter is Ratatosk...

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

So I had noticed. What an interesting experiment.

[knightofratatosk]

You mean what a terrible experiment. I can't wait for this one to be over with... it's just creepy having another me running around.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

I find it to be rather exciting. Colette has taken on the form of a bell pepper, and Lloyd a tomato! It is a love story that transcends species, you could say.

[knightofratatosk]

I'm not sure vegetables can even fall in love in the first place, Tenebrae. And now that I think about it, why haven't you turned into anything?

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

The tomato is a fruit, and that is beside the point.

I've turned into nothing because we Centurions transcend feelings such as hate.

[knightofratatosk]

But I thought you hated Aqua. The two of you are always fighting.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

That is not hate. It is a mutual dislike of one another.

[knightofratatosk]

So you don't hate anything at all?

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

No, I do not.

[knightofratatosk]

But you can't love either, right?

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

That is correct. As Centurions, we cannot show bias towards things of the world.

[knightofratatosk]

It would be nice to not be able to hate anything, but... I wouldn't want to give up the ability to love. I think being able to do that is more than worth having the capacity to hate.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

It must be interesting, being able to comprehend and express such feelings.

[knightofratatosk]

It's really amazing, and a little scary at times. I hadn't realized that being in love could hurt, too.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

You humans certainly enjoy taking risks.

[knightofratatosk]

Some risks are worth it.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

That seems to be the case when you care for something.

[knightofratatosk]

No matter how scared I was, I'd do anything for Richter or Marta or you or any of the rest of my friends.

[is-watching-you.livejournal.com]

That is an admirable trait to have, Lord Emil.

[knightofratatosk]

I just couldn't let anything happen to them, that's all. It's really nothing special.
