[Beggars can't be choosers when you're a nasty man! Everyone else will be a smartass about it. Not very efficient.]

Oh, I think anything will work. But I would certainly like to see what your creative freedom entails.

[ tseng isn't the type to pay compliments undeservedly, so he does take a second to respond. ]

I admire your pragmatism and your efficiency in identifying and addressing challenges. Except for your difficulty in actually trusting anyone around you, you would make an excellent Turk.

[worldbent]

[Wow well done Tseng but you don't have to call him out like that.]

Unnecessary. But thank you for fulfilling the request.

Turks? Is that what you call your military organization, Tseng-san?

[ neener neener ]

You should have been more specific.

It is. Formally, we are the Administrative Research sector of the General Affairs department; informally, we are the Turks.

[worldbent]

Trust, I mean.

But you know, Tseng-san, I am surprised to hear you say that. Particularly in a setting such as this. Is trust so important among Turks?

[nonvoting]

Are you? Of course, it's all hypothetical, since there is no General Affairs department here.

Trust is essential, yes. The nature of the work we do demands it.

[ granted, they mostly trust each other and, like, nobody else... ]

[worldbent]

I ask, as you made it sound like a qualification among your peers.

I wouldn't say that quitting the exorcism business is impossible as a rule, but perhaps for me. Therefore, there is no hypothetical. Likewise, trust. An exorcist cannot have any gaps.

I find the differences in our industries interesting.

By the way, do you intend to play?

[nonvoting]

I do as well. Being a Turk is lonely, but being an exorcist seems even more so. Do you enjoy what you do?

I may as well. Is it my turn to ask, or yours?

[worldbent]

I do. I am proud to be the protector of my brethren.

I did just complete a dare, but it wasn't given by you, was it? Since I gave the invitation, it is only fair that I begin.

Please give me a dare as well, Tseng-san.
