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:]

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.

Not in my case.

Well, you haven't gone very far toward proving that, I'm afraid.

I have too. I've been very intelligent. I've found my brother, a lead on Mother, and one on my big brother too! Now I know that all of you Turks are here, and you know that girl Lorie of yours really needs to be taught not to speak to strangers. Since the president's here too and I know I'll be able to get information out of him, the Reunion is well within my grasp. You'll see.

[*facepalm*]

You cry to your mother, and hide behind your siblings. You can't stand on your own two feet.

These aren't signs of intelligence, but of childhood.

I cry to no one and hide behind no one! I can do fine on my own, thank you very much. The fact that I prefer to fight with my brothers and look to Mother for direction doesn't change that. You Turks do something similar, don't you? I know you'd all be lost without your dear president to lead you... or maybe the rest of them would be more lost without you? I'm willing to test that theory; are you?

I am no child.

That's where you are wrong. Any Turk is trained to perform equally well either in action as a group or on their own; they are independent. You, however, seem to be unable to function as efficiently without familial company. As for your theory, while it would be an interesting experiment, I am afraid you'll never see it in practice.

I'm afraid this thrilling conversation must come to a close. Ask your president if you want to know why.

Mhm. I have eyes and can read for myself.

Good for you.

You appear to be still talking.

So are you. Your point?

It isn't my interests which are threatened from talking to you. Nevertheless, if you wish to continue our discussion, I am open to it.
