Meta thought of the night brought to you by my mun's trip to airport...

Small, yapping dogs carted about in strollers: Yet another reason to push the restart button on humanity.

Society hasn't failed because certain people have spoiled dogs. If it had failed that badly, the people would buy a new dog every day so they didn't have to feed it or walk it.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

It's clearly not just the dogs, Hiro. The dogs are just a symptom.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

There are many different societies. Would you condemn them all? Some are very thrifty and others are practical.

Perhaps Nathan should run for President and you Vice President?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I would prefer a world that takes the best of them all.

You don't think it should be vice versa?

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

With communication and information and guidance we can achieve this.

No, Nathan is the better candidate. He has the polish of a politician.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

You think so?

One needs polish?

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Yes. We have the ability. As you did before, if we can unite ourselves we can do a lot of good. Your idea wasn't wrong, it was just that they lost sight of what you had brought them together to do.

Oh yes, if you want people to vote for you, you need polish.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I thought it a rather good one when I came up with it.

I have far more polish than I did when last you knew me, Hiro. I have danced in the courts of kings since then.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

You can stop preening.

Yes, you do, but not like Nathan does. Not for the modern world.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

But I do it so well.

I see.

*Hiro rolls his eyes.*

You'll see it. People are drawn to him.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

*slight shrug, faintest smile*

As I meant for them to be.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

*Hiro's eyebrow goes up.* As you meant them to be?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

*wry smile*

Him, not them. As I meant for him to be.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

*head cock* As you meant him to be? What did you have to do with Nathan?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

*half smile* I planned that boy as surely and thoroughly as any campaign I ever launched.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

He...he is testtube baby?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

....What? No. Not that planned.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Planned how? If he's not testtube baby, how did you plan him?

Locked to Hiro

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

The right parents, the right environment, the right place in society, extensive discussions about what role he would be raised to fill.

Re: Locked to Hiro

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

But how can you plan so much? Especially since you spent most of his life imprisoned. How could you guarantee things would not change when your friends had you locked up?

Re: Locked to Hiro

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

He was nine when I was imprisoned, carp. And I couldn't guarantee it, per se.

But I could attempt to trust Angela to follow through with what we planned for him when she got pregnant. And, for the most part, she did.

Re: Locked to Hiro

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

His mother is not to be trusted. How could you trust such a woman?

Re: Locked to Hiro

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Because I've known her since she was barely sixteen years old. I made her.

Re: Locked to Hiro

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

You made her wrong! She should not have been so willing to kill her children!
