Dosage 1 John Preston [Video]

_{[Have an emotionless, unfeeling supercop. He is sitting on his bed totally calm.]}

Where am I? I have children to take care of and a job to do. I don't want to be questioned for very long as my son is due home from school any time now. What is the nature of your business and why are we not at headquarters? Are you Father?

I have perspective, quite clearly and I wish to speak with you in person.

[He had no reason to be suspicious of this new arrival, but something about that emotionless way he spoke rubbed him the wrong way. No better than that monster the Premier.]

As you wish. I'll be waiting in the main hall.

_{[John nods and heads to the main hall, hands concealing his pistols, though there was no way to hide his sword, which swung lazily at his side.]}

Name?

[He was armed to the teeth. Whilst unsurprising, he couldn't help the reflexive reaction for right hand grabbing his katana at his own hip. His brows drawn, he wasn't sure he liked this..]

Shiki. And yourself, stranger?

Grammton Cleric John Preston. I can see from your reaction that you reject Father's wisdom. What do you have to say for yourself Sense Offender?

Tch.

[Shiki rolls his eyes and draws his Katana. He doesn't point it at John, it's more of a warning. He raises his head, body language reeking of thinking himself superior to John.]

I don't care for whatever nonsense you're preaching. But you are not in your own world. The rules or this.. Father, you're accustomed to don't exist here. So I'd think twice before you start trying to convert others to your beliefs. People won't take kindly to it. Especially myself - make the 'wise' decision and stand down before I make you.

It's not a belief. It is a fact. You're emotions, your hate, and anger and fear. All of it is the reason that humanity is a dying animal. Wounded beyond repair, always self injuring, like the fox caught in a trap.

[His eyes narrow as he begins approaching. He wouldn't attack unless John got itchy fingers.]

Tell me something I'm not aware of. We've been damned for a long time. But to have these emotions is what makes us what we are. You'd seek to rid us of them?

You do that and you're no longer human, you're a monster.

I am not the monster here. You are. Happiness, love, joy. It is a small price to pay for peace and serenity.

I willingly accept my flaws. It's who I am. Contain the beast for too long and it'll only strike back with a passion that will wound everything and anything it can.

Repression isn't good for the species.

You're logic is fallible and your feelings mislead you.

[The space between them now closed, Shiki just looms. Staring down at him with growing contempt.]

I don't care. I'm not defending the species, as far as I'm concerned it can go to hell in the handbasket it's destined to.

What I care about is being told by some pathetic brainwashed little bastard, preaching at me how to live my life when he's too scared to face his own emotional demons.

_{[John draws his sword.]}

If you don't care, why are you getting so defensive. Your anger makes you blind.

I'm angry about many things. I do not care about your ideals, what I care about is your methods. You're blindly imposing it upon others because you don't know how to deal with your own problems, yet believe you have the answer to everyone else's.

[He raises a brow. He wasn't scared. He knew he could cut this idiot down in a matter of seconds.]

You speak of logic, but I don't see how reducing yourself to the state of an empty shell allows you to deal with situations. Emotions allow empathy and a greater understanding - all I see when I look at you is a pathetic mutt who is blinded by nothing but ignorance.

If I hear that you have hurt anyone here in your idiotic pursuit for what you perceive to be order, I won't hesitate to cut you down to size. Do I make myself clear, mutt?

_{[John knows when he should back away, even though it pains him to release a rebel.]}

Noted.

[Shiki gives a firm nod, sheathes his katana and begins walking away. He knew this guy'd be trouble until he settled in.]

Good. Because I don't like to repeat myself.
