     So, I've seen how these sorts of questions go over around here.  I know I'm opening myself up to a lot of troll answers, and angry defensiveness, and cagey suspicion, and this is me saying I'm okay with whatever comes my way.  Bring it on.  Because at least one of you is going to give me a straight answer, and I guess...

     [Slevin is sitting in his room talking to the communicator, toying with something in his hands.  It flashes gold just at the edge of the view screen when he hesitates to look down at it, takes a breath, continues anyway:]

     I guess that's what I need.  Just one.  So: what was the worst thing you ever lost?

     And how did you decide to handle it?  


     [ Private : Chris D'Amico ]

     You were right.  I'm an asshole, but I can at least admit when I made a mistake.

You should look into picking it up again. Y'know. If you're bored here.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

Maybe. I'm not sure I want to find out what the Admiral's idea of a model plane kit is.

[Private]

[mistconduct]

He's probably more into model ships. Y'know, being an Admiral and all.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

I never understood the appeal of ships. Congratulations, you got a piece of wood to float. They do that anyway.

[Private]

[mistconduct]

I like cars way better than ships.

Fuck, maybe I should pick up modeling too.


....I mean car mode-you know what I mean.

[But Slevin's smirk is just getting wider as Chris keeps talking.]

Do I?

[Private]

[mistconduct]

Don't be a bitch, Slevin.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

Take your own advice, asshole.

You'd look amazing on the front of Inventor's National.

[Private]

[mistconduct]

I'd be giving you two middle fingers in it.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

Comes off as a little desperate, doesn't it?

[Private]

[mistconduct]

Like you know shit about male modeling.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

Despite how determined you seem to write me as the off brand Brad Pitt, you're the one that keeps commenting on the fact that I do.

[Private]

[mistconduct]

Maybe I'm just jealous of how good-looking you are.

[Private]

[andyougoleft]

That much I know.
