If the Admiral lets us choose to leave the ship for some ports, why do we get such limited warning about being able to disembark?

[Private to Ariadne]

I want to see my file.

[Private to David]

Did your plan work?

[Private to Slade; added later]

I heard you assisted in subduing David during port.

[Tsk tsk. He won't get very far then if he continues to forget the magic word.] Well, do you remember your life before here?

Private

[resultofwar]

[B-but! D:] Of course.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, there's no 'buts' in 'please' >B] Then that's essentially your file.

Private

[resultofwar]

[:CCCCCCCCCCC] That's it?

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[DDDDDDDDDD:<] That's it. Unless there should be something more to that? [Fill in the blanks, Heero~]

Private

[resultofwar]

[;____;] No.

[There's a short pause. When he speaks again, it's in the same sort of monotone as usual, but there's a slight not quite waver, like he's unsure or maybe even a little upset.]

Why am I an inmate?

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[She's been anticipating this question ever since they were paired together, yet why is it so hard to answer? She remains quiet for a moment, figuring out what exactly to say.]

There's several reasons I guess... Heero, can I ask you something?

Private

[resultofwar]

Yes.

[Private]

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

Maybe it's just me, but isn't a soldier about not giving up so easy? What makes you think it's such a lost cause?

[Private]

[resultofwar]

Because past data indicates it's impossible. What makes you so special that you can do what everyone else hasn't?

[fuckyoucynthia]

You're expecting him to make sense.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

Do you believe fighting against OZ is right?

Private

[resultofwar]

Why?

[resultofwar]

Not anymore.

[Private]

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

You already know what. There's no one else on the Barge who can do what I can.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

Just curious. [She wants to see if this kid is as emotionless as the file makes him.] Your answer?

[Private]

[resultofwar]

How does changing into an animal immediately mean you can locate the Admiral?

Private

[resultofwar]

They're oppressing the Colonies. [But it's said much more like a learned response then something he actually believes. Whether that's because in general, he speaks very flatly or if because it is actually a learned response is up for questioning.]

[Private]

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

Because I can go places no one else on the ship can go. I can spy on people when they think they've got total privacy. I can be any living warden on this ship and unless Bourne spilled the beans, they'll never know.

[Private]

[resultofwar]

And with everything else we have on board, you honestly think there's never been another shapeshifter?

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[She frowns at his response. There's little conviction or anger in his voice, not even a hint of sincerity. Truly a fitting answer from a child soldier.]

How far are you willing to defeat them?

[Private]

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

Not one like me. You've read all the logs. What do you think?

Private

[resultofwar]

However far I have to to complete my mission.

[There's more conviction there. Getting the job done no matter what the cost to himself (or others) is what he's good at.]

[Private]

[resultofwar]

I told you. It's unrealistic.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[She can understand him to a degree. She's been taking risks in order to make sure the team don't lose themselves during the Fischer job. Hell, she's now a warden in order to get the job done. Still, her conviction is way different from Heero's.]

Even if it means hurting others? People who are innocent?
