[ Wow how dare you... now I have to pivot and absolutely not brag like I wanted to ]
No??
Obviously some of the games involve guns, a lot of them tbh. Fake ones you can point at screens, or just images of characters/ships/whatever firing them but you're controlling them
Racing's pretty popular too, maybe you control a person or car and have to beat someone else
I like the fighter games best where two characters have to face off
Okay well talking about my fave would get you one answer like you want, but I'm on the leaderboards (have lots of scores) in tons of them so don't limit me
I actually trained up my aim irl using games so obviously my shooter records are top tier
But if you think I slacked on fighting games you're crazy
Call it whatever you want but it takes serious skill, exactly like the simulations
[ Thank you. ]
You'll see when we get there, I'll let you try a couple of the machines on the house since you're helping with labor. Next time though you're not gonna be so lucky
Oh it worked I don't have any patience for men who know better and say they don't So I struck the bastard He put a woman's life at risk Though I suppose he thought it was a great joke
Anyway The punch didn't do as much damage as I'd have liked it to He was afflicted with some mutation before I arrived and it had yet to run its course It made his face very durable
I understood that about you when you said you'd knock Taro out if he got handsy again It's more satisfying to hear this time around
Don't trust him Noctis His ambitions are great and I feel that back in his Nation of Zaun they may even be reasonable But the survival instincts he brought with him have translated poorly to the work we must do for Lilith He could try to hurt you or people you come to care about here and easily justify it as a necessity Or worse A lesson
Sounds like what you're trying to say is he had a rough background so maybe it makes sense that he'd take it out on people here. Which maybe works for me if he's all talk
If he's actually trying to hurt people that's different, idk what kind of necessity or lesson could make that make sense
Why would LILITH bring in a guy like that if he's just a problem?
One of our comrades Suguru put it this way Lilith has to keep us satisfied so we'll continue to do good work So the cost of a few civilians being hurt or dying by our hands is considered one worth paying Another case of the ends supposedly justifying the means
As for the discord he causes among outsiders I'm uncertain It doesn't seem wise to feed it There is delusion that already runs unchecked through our ranks
Guess I get the logic but that doesn't mean I have to like it
What's the point? We fight to beat back the kaiju while letting some psychos wearing the same uniform as us go wild? Maybe that makes a difference to most people but that family's world is completely turned upside down
W/e I get that I'm telling someone who already knows, it's just getting me annoyed, I'll keep an eye on him
You can tell someone who already knows all you like I want to get it out of my head as much as you do It's okay here
The idea of letting them carry on with no repercussions disgusts me If we have anything to report on the bastards acting out of line we should bring it to each other That way we'll have support

Do you know what a gun is?
no subject
Yes
I see them a lot
One of the other outsiders further explained them to me

You're not very humble are you
Are you about to brag some more

No??

I'm not surprised

And I'm not talking about your favourite either
Whats the one you have lots of scores in

( and because he's allergic to fun: )
I'll watch you do it
If you're so amazing at it you should still do well under pressure
no subject
And then you're gonna play, this isn't a debate we're having, you're gonna do it
no subject
Wow
You're intense

[ Which he's decided conveniently aligns with what he wants. Which is for Kaladin to have some fun so he can pay him back. ]
no subject
You can't speak for her
( well... neither can he, and he's been doing that anyway. syl would want him to have fun, and he storming knows it. )
Fine
Only because if you challenged anyone else they'd probably prepare for a real fight
no subject
[ I'm fine with that. ]
Lol tell me about it though, everyone here jumps to a throwdown pretty quick
Have any of them tried to fight you yet?
no subject
Silco didn't try to fight me as much as he provoked me into doing so with hostile words and actions
That's what the rest of them seem to do too
Who knows if they actually have the strength to back it up
That old blowhard doesn't
no subject
"Provoked" as in it worked? Or as in he tried to provoke you into it and failed?
no subject
I don't have any patience for men who know better and say they don't
So I struck the bastard
He put a woman's life at risk
Though I suppose he thought it was a great joke
Anyway
The punch didn't do as much damage as I'd have liked it to
He was afflicted with some mutation before I arrived and it had yet to run its course
It made his face very durable
Bet it's not like that anymore
no subject
"Provoked" like he said a lot of stuff to make you mad or to insult you and it hit a limit. But endangering people isn't like that at all
That's earning every hit you get. I would've punched him with you, idc what mutations he's got
[ And there's no way he's allowing for any doubt on the subject. ]
no subject
I understood that about you when you said you'd knock Taro out if he got handsy again
It's more satisfying to hear this time around
Don't trust him Noctis
His ambitions are great and I feel that back in his Nation of Zaun they may even be reasonable
But the survival instincts he brought with him have translated poorly to the work we must do for Lilith
He could try to hurt you or people you come to care about here and easily justify it as a necessity
Or worse
A lesson

Or the guys actually attacking civs outside of the base?

Lilith should reprimand their unruly soldiers
But no one will do anything about civilians getting hurt
