{FAILED LOCK TO KAREN}

[sears]

So, Karen. I've been meaning to ask you about something you said when you came to visit me a day or so ago- you know, the time when you unplugged one of my medical machines, and then attempted to smother me with a pillow. Do you have a moment?

{LOCKED- because she doesn't want anyone to actually see the discussion}

Did you seriously expect that little stunt to prove something to me? If it had been an actual attempt I probably would have been impressed, but in this case you really just came off as childish.

OOC: And the failed lock was actually on purpose this time, of course.

If nothing else, it proved my original point. I clearly had the ability to kill you, and so did anyone else who walked into that room. Yet here you are, alive.

[Meanwhile, Karen has given Azula a hug. Progress!]

Physically, yes. Mentally, however...

OOC: I would have lol'd if she had pretended to be her girlfriend. XD

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

Mentally, it wouldn't be the first time.

[Well, Azula's the one who came up with their relationship first.]

Re: {LOCKED}

I seriously doubt that you've killed in the past. You don't have the mindset for it.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

All of us have.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Really. Who did you kill?

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

Nobody you'd know.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm interested in a name. Was it a human?

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

Names, huh? Girinma and Arachnea. Nightmares.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Are Nightmares human?

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

I suppose it depends on how you define humanity.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Biologically. I'm not looking for a philosophical argument about how "evil" people aren't human, thank you.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

I wasn't planning on one. But I haven't really had the chance to study their biology. All of them appear human in at least one of their forms. They can transform for combat, but I'm hardly in a position to question that.

They may be a humanlike species similar to some of the ones seen on the community.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... Hm. It appears that in this case- and in this case only- I underestimated you.

Though I'm still one up on you.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

Don't brag to me about how many people you've killed.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I wasn't talking about the number- I was referring to the fact that I have killed humans, while you've only killed humanoids. While even that is more than I would have suspected you capable of, I doubt that you would be able to bring yourself to kill an actual human.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

Some of my best friends aren't actual humans.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Still, one would think that it'd be easier to kill someone who isn't of your own species.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

But is indistinguishable in appearance and behavior?

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Isn't there some sort of psychological factor? I wouldn't know; it's as easy for me to kill one as it is the other.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

I wouldn't know. I haven't tried, after all.

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Hm.

Re: {LOCKED}

[oceanicbutterfly]

...what?

Re: {LOCKED}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Nothing.
