Could I possibly get a reality check over here?

So Cute-Perky-and-Russian has gotten her crazy face on. Big freaking deal. Nobody's actually died, right?  I was wrong, apparently somebody did. I'd say my face was red, but, y'know.

Best case scenario, we all get a few bruises, tomorrow or next week or whenever she realizes what a total drama queen she's being and cools off. Normal service resumes. Worst case scenario, a few other people have to take a week off work for whatever reason. It sucks, then you get over it, then in a month there's some other disaster and nobody cares that this ever happened.

Other worst case scenario, the Barge crash-lands. Yeah, like we've never seen that before. Last time that happened it set back our schedule by, what, a week? Less? Like we're even in a hurry to get anywhere.

Also, you guys do know that the Admiral caps off powers that could accidentally wreck the Barge, right? Including Wardens? [She's mostly thinking about Bruce Banner here.] We're never gonna end up....I dunno, floating through interdimensional space, clinging to whatever scorched furniture we can keep hold of. We have way better insurance against Acts Of Blonde than Moscow.

Nothing unique or special is happening here. Just try to avoid sharp edges for the next few days and it'll blow over. Eesh.

WELL, MAYBE IF YOU WERE LESS OF A JERK, VALMONT...

You don't see me doing anything, so I'm not, is that how it works? Do you even know my name? You have no idea what I am or am not doing, what I've been doing, or who I am or am not talking to, or where I am or have been, or how long I've been here or how many times I've died here or how. So what I think is amazing is how you think you know me, or what's important to me, or that I'm an 'us vs. them' kind of person.

You started it by not caring that he burned his hands :c

Your name is Cissie, and up until now I've seen you being a perfectly nice, if somewhat unremarkable person. Right now, however? I see you dismissing the suffering and deaths of many people, I see you dismissing my suffering, and in the same breath objecting at great length to the idea of someone who you care about, and who is causing pain to many other people, having to suffer in kind!

I am not pretending to know you, Cissie, but what I am doing is pointing out that behavior which is evident to me. I don't know if you are going to go dote on the sick and helpless later, or if you've spent your life rescuing the wounded innocent, or if you're not even remotely an 'us vs. them' kind of person. What I know of you, Cissie, is that despite the fact that you have been so kind as to tell me all about your views on whether or not it is appropriate to kill your warden friend, your response to what's happened to me? What's happened to that-- that girl who was having a breakdown in response to the post? What's happened to the man who broke out with the plague? Even what's happened to the man who died because of this?

Thank you. This is all so stupid.

Maybe I don't know you, but your behavior here speaks volumes.
