04 🍎 Some cats, they know how to fight, some cats run

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

So let’s get this straight. Giant monsters attack cities all over the Pacific Rim [aaah he said the title!], slaughtering hundreds of people in destructive rampages, and three-quarters of you dive headfirst into glorified suits of armor to punch and shoot them.

Right. More proof that the lot of you are crazy.

You, me, Monopoly. What do you say?

This place is a magnet for noble intentions.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Is it? Here I had the idea that this place was a magnet for lowlifes and rogues.

[velocette]

Oh it is that, too. But only those with hearts of gold. Or at least of silver.

Monopoly? Did you want us to take over the Barge?

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

If you've got a particularly cunning plan, yes. But I was thinking on a smaller scale to begin with.

Such as?

[He has no idea it's a game.]

[tucky]

We were getting our heads fucked with. It wasn't our fault.

[She sounds a little out of it, but she wanted to make this clear okay.]

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Is that so? A few days ago you seemed pretty convinced it was normal.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Don't play dumb with me. I mean after the whole ridiculous monster/metal mashup.

[humanmonster]

Not me - I just had a boat.

[ She is stunning, deeply beautiful - but her hair is completely covered by a headscarf. Her eyes are a brilliant green. ]

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Well hello.

Silly me -- A.J. Crowley at your service. You must have been one of the smart ones. And your name?

[sharpsurprise]

The future's really impressive, isn't it! [He's still mildly impressed by guns, so the huge robots were absolutely amazing. He's also just going to ignore that accusation.]

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Not if it's that. [Any kaiju-infested universe is not one he wants to claim as his future.]

[darknessb4me]

You have no taste.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Oh? And what would you call tasteful?

[demolitions]

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

[Sure it was weird, but fun.]

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

If everyone lived by those words we'd all be skydiving without parachutes and eating tree bark.

[takeyouapart]

No. None of us did that.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Oh no? Then what would you call that en masse St. George impression?

[wegotarunner]

I think they were trying to save lives.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Doesn't make it any less crazy.

[moon_in_her_hair]

It was certainly an unexpected event. I take it you did not participate?

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

If you mean "did I run into the line of fire," then no.

Audentis Fortuna iuvat

[ Yeah, he and Souji were in one of those bots. Sorry bro.]

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Don't quote yourself, it makes you look uneducated.
