I take it by all your reactions that this is a rare and unusual occurrence.

Shame. I feel we could all benefit from a few words of wisdom from those outside of our reenforced bubble.

Very well: speak your mind. Lt. Braca, if you can hear me: report.

He shouldn't have bothered. I don't care so much about the 'how's as the 'how do I subdue them if they start causing trouble's.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

You still sound very much like a peacekeeper.

[ichoosefight]

That's probably on account of the whole superhero, fighting crime thing I've got going on.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

A lucrative position?

[ichoosefight]

If by 'lucrative' you mean emotionally rewarding and a great way to stay in shape, then yes.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I envy your contentment.

[ichoosefight]

Don't be too jealous. My husband wants me to quit before we have kids. I see his point, but a girl can dream, can't she?

[ Dream about taking her kids on patrol? Yes. Yes she can. ]

[keeps_a_cool_head]

The institute of marriage. Quite an outdated custom in Peacekeeper ranks.

[ichoosefight]

Okay, now you've lost me.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Peacekeepers are a military organization. They do not marry; children are bred according to assigned duties and taken from their parents to be raised separately.

[ichoosefight]

Oh. Well that's. Something.

We're a little more old fashioned on Earth. You know, love, free will, all that jazz.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

"Jazz." I don't believe Crichton's ever shared jazz with me. What is it?

[ichoosefight]

[ She waves a hand dismissively. ]

It's a style of music. But the phrase 'all that jazz' is from a line in a famous musical, it basically just means 'and stuff like that'.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Ah. A metaphor. One of many found of Earth, so I take it.

[ichoosefight]

Them and cultural references. We're all about colloquialisms.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Two of John's favorite things, I always assumed. I suppose, having not made contact with any extraterrestrial life, humans need to develop their own exclusive language patterns with impunity.

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, I hear we're a funny little planet. Seems to make us popular though! Especially with interstellar warlords.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Everything I know of Earth lead me to believe it's insignificant both in location and resources as compared to the rest of the galaxy.

[ichoosefight]

Makes you wonder why we get invaded so often.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

If most humans act like John Crichton in regards to behaving around other species...I'm not particularly surprised at all.

[ichoosefight]

I don't know him. And I find it hard to believe anyone would bother getting their ass kicked halfway across the galaxy to get back at some jerk.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I feel I need to investigate the human species far more thoroughly before I make a decision regarding their proclivity towards inciting riots.

[ichoosefight]

If you're lucky you may even get the chance.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I tend to make my own luck rather than rely on any cast before me.

[ichoosefight]

A man after my own heart.

Unfortunately the barge has a way of leaking people for no reason.
