shitposting rave 4: (almost) anything goes

The latter has absolutely no bearing on whether or not you should follow orders.
And the former is actually wrong. I wasn't constantly stationed on the front, that doesn't mean I was not involved in active combat often at the frontlines and I don't feel like explaining off-frontline-operations to you at this very second.
Flux is not your commanding officer. If you want to be able to truthfully claim you can follow orders, then learn your chain of command.

 

That's old! Not that you ACT old.

 

Mm, fair enough. We do need more of them. It's a shame the Functionists didn't believe in mental health beyond what they could use to hurt people-- frankly, a couple thousand more therapists would do wonders for our species as a whole.

It's not old either. It's... reasonably mature. You're just incredibly youthful and vibrant.

 

Hmmmm. Everyone seems old to me, tho. Even Triage, and you'd say he's young, right?

 

He's practically a sparkling. Like I said, you're just very youthful. It colors things a bit.

 

Mmm, unless they were coding house servants to look like bombers six-odd million years back I don't think so : ) It does look quite nice on us, though!

I do have to agree with that. And also perhaps more use of mnemosurgery as a rehabilitative practice, and research into methods that don't burn the practitioner out-- the things we could do if we could actually fix or get rid of malfunctioning subroutines instead of just learning to work around them.

 

I can't believe we were havin' a pretty paints party an' no one invited the resident representative'a the rosegold club.

 

~rose gold~
Shut up it's fucking pink.

 

... (Reed cracks up.)

pink SUUUUUCKS, purple for LIFE!!

 

Well, I wouldn't wear it, but it does have a certain charm on you.

 

Purple's better than red anyway!

 

"It's really a pity I can't hire you," Alex says after a moment. "I'm not sure we could afford it, although our uncle had a lot of money stashed away in various places all over the globe, because we are only one planet--but I'd certainly try to come up with the scratch."

Glow, my mech are you calling me pretty? Did somethin' drop on ya helm?

 

"Alex, dear. Your uncle brought me back from one of his trips, what makes you think all of his money's on Earth? But I'm not sure this place is even real." Lissa thinks for a moment. "You don't know how to get hold of your uncle's allies, do you? I wish I could be sure that you're actually here so I could tell you things he can't, now. And that you could even remember them."

 

is this about the big robot war, or do you just have really intense opinions about colors?

 

Red is efficient at signalling medic status to combat forces.

 

Oh, dear, I'm no engineer, I just stab people. You'll want to talk to dear Captain Nichrome over there.

I'm not the only pretty mech in the universe!
