5th Royal Decree

[solarhussyalert]

Action 747 Partridge Drive

[Lym headed out in the morning, not wanting anything to do with school, and looking at a box with her name on it. Poking it.]

Ok, I got the sun rune, what horrible thing is in you today?

Action Downtown - Bakery

[School is for chumps, chumps who aren't dressed like the Queen of Felenas. Chumps who aren't going to get cookies. She doesn't quite understand the money thing but she's headed for the bakery for something to eat. Eventually she'll get there and peer around.]

Hey! Is this the place where the chef makes cookies?

Phone

[Ok, she's holding it upside down so she's kind of hard to hear]

Hey! Does anyone know anything to do here other than that school thing? Its been kind of really boring here.

Maybe I should talk to that lady with the harmonian bang stick things.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Harmonian bang sticks...?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I think she called it a gun?

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Ugh, I did say long range didn't I. Well...maybe you'd be ok with a small one with minimal recoil...

Guns are really dangerous though, you need to be very calm with them.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

You did say that, and they looked long range. Either that or a baton.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Why don't you start off with a baton. That way you can get used to defending yourself with out worrying that you'll accidentally shoot yourself.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

So who teaches that here?

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I dunno. Some one probably knows the basics though. You could ask over the phones.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I guess.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Well, even if no one does, someone may have a different suggestion for you.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Really, I just want to thump those jerks at that school place for being dumb.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Well you can't. There's a difference between learning how to fight to defend yourself, and just beating up on drones.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

But they're telling OVERT AND HORRIBLE LIES TO CHILDREN!

[Flail]

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

For the drones it's the truth though. This is their home world after all. I know to you and me it sounds wrong but...

I'll try and talk to the school, see if I can get you transferred to a class with a none drone teacher.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

They're saying stupid things like the senate system isn't a horrible disaster waiting to happen!

[More flailing]

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

...Is that what you're...oh right you're a part of a monarchy. Oh uh...it actually does work. Some of the time.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Nope.. It doesn't. We had one back home. Split into factions who spent all their time trying to gain power and didn't care about the people at all.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

It seems to work in the states, but then again the people vote for their senate. Yours were just noble families, right?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

In theory it started with the people picking them I think. But they got so rich and powerful they basically just took over.

I bet that after a while in these states the extremists will rewrite where the districts are so that if you're not with them you'll suffer and not get a real voice. Just a bunch of idiots chasing stupid agendas.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Monarchies can get like that too. Look, I don't know much about government, but I do know this. Power eventually turns people into kids in a candy store, voted in or not.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I know, just, I've SEEN it fail! That's HOW the Godwins did that and they just talk to me like I'm a dumb kid.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I've seen it work too! Look...why don't you go get those cookies. This isn't getting us anywhere.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Yeah fine...

[She balls her stuff up and heads inside]

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[He watches her go with a sigh] Well that could have gone better. Good job self.
