3RD TASTE ♎ TEXT; (BACKDATED TO THE 13TH)

[sinkships]

One ha2 to wonder how exact1y thin62 6o from being 2o very entertainin6 to 2o very inconvenient before they take a turn for comp1ete1y in2ane in every way, 2hape and form.
That a2ide, what exactly doe2 everyone propo2e we do about the mon2tro2ity currently 2ta1kin6 the ha112?
I propo2e murder, but I know how... particu1ar you human2 are with your method2 of puni2hment.
And what exact1y do we do with our counterpart2 that we don't get alon6 we11 with?
Are there con2equence2 to ki11in6 them?

[That is the understatement of her life, since the video feed turns of for a second to show her having barricaded a door in her room that is being banged against most fiercely from the other side. There is a whooshing sound and fire licks under the door.]

And where is the 2o-ca11ed queen durin6 a11 of thi2, hm?

((OOC: Redglare's Mirrorself is currently a great dane-sized dragon who she's managed to lock in her closet because she is terrible.))

that wouldnt surprise me very much
but its not the point right now
i think this thing needs to be stopped and i think killing it might be the only way to do that

Ki11in6 i2 the on1y true way to 2top anythin6 permanent1y, if one think2 about it.

Text;

[eatsyourscience]

Id like to think that isnt always true.

Text;

[sinkships]

It i2 true from a fundamenta1 point of view, 1itt1e 2tudent. Death stops a11 eventua11y.

[eatsyourscience]

but it doesnt have to be other people making that happen

Text;

[sinkships]

And yet it often i2. Ju2tice doe2 not carry it2elf out. Equa1 crime2 mu2t be met with equa1 puni2hment2. 2uch i2 the way of thin62.

[eatsyourscience]

...i just think that might set a regrettable precedent
but under these circumstances, it isnt that important.
we have to do something before a lot of people get hurt.

[sinkships]

Thin62 that are regrettab1e must 2ti11 be done for the 6reater 6ood.

And that a2ide, what do you mean we? You are 2tayin6 in a 2afe area.

[The door is finally giving way to the insistent pounding of her mirror trying to escape. Dammit. Closets are such temporary solutions. She should have wished for metal doors.]

what was the problem?

Text;

[sinkships]

Your room. Prob1em solved.

A minor i22ue. Mirror ver2ion of myse1f. 6enera11y horrib1e and unp1ea2ant. 2he turned into a dra6on when 2he 2et foot here, ended up quite 2ma11er than usua1. Tried to 2et me on fire. I 1ocked her up. 2he broke out and tried to 2et me ab1aze once more. I cut off her foot and 1ocked her up a6ain.

Typica1 tro11 2ocia1 po1itic2.

[sinkships]

Ye2. Exact1y. Aren't you a bri6ht cand1e. Rather, I knew thi2. Regard1e22, the 2tatement ho1d2 up to 2crutiny.

If 2he insist2 on makin6 her2e1f a bother I may not be ab1e to fi6ht thi2 creature at a11.

[eatsyourscience]

i think I must be missing some subtlety about troll
things

[sinkships]

The tro11 thin6 that occurred wa2 me hobb1in6 her.
