Headcount. Who all here remembers the Elegante? Speak up.

[There's a couple reasons for asking. The general headcount, and asking a few important questions that came up when he spoke to Zuko.]

Need to figure some things out.

Comments

[heavyweaponsbot]

For us.

[Metal creaks as Ironhide shrugs.]

That is what we are trying to figure out.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

But why are we prisoners? What did we do? And how do they stop death?

[SO MUCH CONFUSION.]

[heavyweaponsbot]

If I knew, I would tell you.

[He sighs and buries his face into his hand.]

What the hell is this place...

[At this point he's talking to himself more than Ironhide.]

[heavyweaponsbot]

A keep. Were you not paying attention?

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

That's not what I meant.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Then be more clear.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

I mean what kind of place is this? People said we were saved but you said this is a prison, and in either case, why would they let us kill each other?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Not a good one, if the Elegante was anything to go by.

Why not? What do they care? So long as they can bring us back again.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

So we're all just semi-immortal now?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Something like that.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

Do you have any idea how fucking crazy that sounds?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah. I do.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

Good, I was starting to think I was the only one.

So do you have proof?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Only the word of those I trust.

[helluvachin.livejournal.com]

[Zachariah really can't argue with that. Well he can, but he doesn't want to. He knows that feeling.]

Alright, but I say people should just focus on not killing each other.

[heavyweaponsbot]

You can say that all you want. Does not mean anyone will listen.

[The Elegante proved that.]
