"I know those have guns and targets. Not magic. Not shields. None of that crap. Your's? Unless you were a child soldier in some godforsaken hellhole where they probably don't splurge on such stuff, I don't think you're old enough. Unless it's like what those kids did in WWI..."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Well, some do have teleporting targets now. Magical proliferation since the Northsdale incident has increased quite a fair bit."

[Empiricist]

"Yes, but this..."
He glances at the dodging targets and shields
"Looks less than sporting... looks more like something they'd use for military... if you know, soldiers started getting shields and dodging bullets. Instead of the usual 'die horribly from bullets' business..."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Mitsuru nods.
"Now that you mention it......you have a point."

[kj1225]

"Not really a hellhole."

[Empiricist]

"Non-competition guns. Some of 'em even look military. Magical mumbo jumbo targets. Those probably ain't aren't at your local shops. All for free, for a bunch of randoms like us."
Louis begins to laugh, softly at first, but then gaining in volume though still remaining relatively quiet.
"Hell, we'll either end up as soldiers like Mister Facist hopes, or heroes. And without monsters, there are no heroes."
"Well, what's the country called?"

[kj1225]

"I don't know. I was trained to fight for whoever buys me."

[Empiricist]

"...Well, that explains a lot then. So tell me, mostly ex-child soldier, who did buy you?"

[kj1225]

"No one. I haven't finished training."

[Empiricist]

"Well then, either you ain't in training no longer. Or we're all in training and don't fucking realize it. Great. Just fucking great. I have a drink, one fucking drink, and wake up fucking conscripted..."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"That is concerning...."

[Shadestyle]

Ichabod walks in just as the conversation reaches that point, looks over and says with innocent curiosity

"If they wished to enslave us, why would they give weaponry and free reign to people who are suspicious of and potentially unstable enough to use them to escape when they could just torture and chemically affect us until we serve without question?"

[kj1225]

"That results in weak soldiers. And why would you not want to defend people?"

[Empiricist]

"Three things not to do in the first week of joining a school: One: fall in love with someone; Two: reveal secrets; Three: find out that it ain't a fucking school."
"A: they don't, they're just really weird and Mister Fascist Ex-Child Soldier the Fourteenth over here doesn't realize he's been freed slash liberated slash retrenched slash abducted. B: they aren't willing to, maybe they'd rather just persuade us or something or it's too damn hard to."

[Shadestyle]

"Because the entirety of my race is me as an individual. that is how bacterial colonies work generally, selfish, non-human, and working together without question or complaint, morality is something i use to ensure my survival in a moral populace of humans. That besides, Weak soldiers are made when people willingly become them as well, this is the purpose of training and conditioning after the initial re-conditioning process"
