Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

... What would you ask of us?

[adds, a little awkwardly] ...sir?

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

How much would you sacrifice for victory?

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

...that depend on what's at stake.

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

It is a hypothetical. I am asking about your limit.

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

I'm prepared to sacrifice all the time necessary it would take to calculate a proper strategy to obtain victory.

...if that strategy involves other sacrifices then so be it, within the limits of acceptableness.

Death, for example, would probably be unacceptable.

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

I see...

In that case, what would you sacrifice to protect your loved ones?

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

Whatever was necessary, and was mine to sacrifice.

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

Very good.

And what about your morals? What would you sacrifice them for?

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

I'd like to say I wouldn't...

...

But I can't know for sure what I'd do in a desperate situation until it happened.

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

I see. Well, that is my last question, so off you go, young lady.

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

... What about you?

Re: Room 5

[soulping]

...Well, I'm just a bad memory. If you wish to ask the Echo, you'd have to go do it yourself.

Re: Room 5

[science_genius_girl]

...I understand.

Whatever it was, I'm sure you did what you could.
