Oh Mister President~ where are you? We have some unfinished business to attend to...

[ooc: NO I DID NOT MEAN FOR IT TO SOUND LIKE THAT STFU DDDD:]

Was that aimed to be sarcasm or an attempt to be threatening? I'm afraid you missed the mark on both counts.

Merely an observation. You obviously need to work on deciphering that kind of thing. Aren't you one of the people in charge of the president's life? That kind of negligence could get both of you into trouble.

I am rarely negligent, I assure you.

Willing to bet your life on that?

Definitely.

Good.

Not really, for you.

It is if you're wrong.

Unfortunately for you, then, I'm not stupid enough to be wrong about the same thing twice.

Twice?

I believe on this issue you're a little behind.

.. Explain.

I'm afraid I don't take orders from you.

Then I'll just have to pay you a visit too.

I wouldn't bother, if I were you. Still, if you insist.

I do insist. I don't like it when people keep things from me.

Well, get used to it.

No, I don't think I will. You and your president are keeping secrets, Tseng, and I will find them out. It's only a matter of time.

I'm sure time doesn't come into it at all.

What makes you say that? Just that confident, are you? You shouldn't be.

It's not confidence, no. Only fools indulge in that.

Confidence is only foolish if it's unjustified.

I find that those who have it are rarely justified in keeping it. Perhaps that number should include yourself.

I sincerely doubt that. My confidence comes entirely from my abilities, as well as the sheer fact of who and what I am. If you don't know those things, then you're the foolish one for thinking I don't deserve to be confident because of them. If you do know them, then you're foolish and suicidal. So which is it, Tseng? A fool, or a suicidal fool?

An overreaction. I was merely insinuating that power doesn't always imply intelligence, and I appear to have been right.
