[Filtered away from Treize]

[The feed clicks on, but there's a short pause between it and Heero actually speaking.]

In the event that an inmate's crimes and reason for being here aren't obvious, even with the help of a file, how are they ever actually "redeemed"?

[There's a pause like he's going to say something else, but he switches off the feed instead.]

[Private to Ariadne]

Treize is here.

[Private to Cooper]

You spar?

[ooc: Still on hiatus, but Heero couldn't not say anything in response to Treize being here.]

Really? Just fine? [Please explain your feelings in four or more words kthxbai]

[Huff. :\]

I still don't understand why I'm here.

I know it's hard to believe, but the way you were fighting against OZ was wrong.

There wasn't another option.

If that's the case, did you at least question or have doubts about the way you were fighting?

What are you suggesting we should have done?

Not using such young people to fight for starters. Can you answer my question now?

You've read my file. I followed orders. It's what I was trained to do.

Did they train your thoughts and emotions as well?

Why?

I'm just trying to make things clear about your reason being here.

What kind of thoughts or feelings do you get before heading into battle?

[There's a pause while he actually considers that question, somewhat grudgingly.]

I'm focused on completing the mission I've been assigned.

Fair enough. How about when the battle's over or when you're about to defeat an enemy?

When it's over, I focus on the next mission. When I'm about to "defeat an enemy", I'm focused on getting the job done.

So you're always focused on the mission, I get that. Still, what I want to know are the feelings you have during these situations. Do you get nervous, excited, remorseful?

[Hnnnngh this is uncomfortable.] No.

[But there's something a little off about the way he says it.]

[She can sense it.] Really?

[Uncomfortable silence.] Yeah.

[gdi. Why won't you open up, Heero?] I'm having trouble believing that.

[He might after this breach? c:?] Emotions have no place on the battlefield.

[:V Pinky promise?] Is that what they told you or did you make determine that yourself?

[ARIADNE I HAD PARENTS. AND I LOVED THEM. LOVE LIKE AN EMOTION. WHAT DOOOOO.] Do you disagree?

[JUST KEEP ON TRUCKIN', HEERO. AND TELL ME MORE OF YOUR FEELINGS. I AM PROUD OF YOU BB.] Yeah. I don't think emotions can be repressed like that for very long, no matter what the circumstance.
