He'd stay silent for a little while in contemplation, his brows scrunched together as his mind swirled with uncertainty. Looking between Candice and Eve, Mars decided to voice his thoughts, and while he didn't seem outwardly bothered by the comment, his voice was full of a sense of uncertainty that he didn't know how to deal with, and he was loud enough that even Amber and Chrimite would be ablr to hear him, a sign of how frantic his thoughts made him. "If fighting is bad, does that mean that . . .I'm bad for liking it? Is there something wrong with me, is that what the voices in my head are about?" Mars looked at the two with confused, frantic eyes, desperate for answers to these questions. Was he bad for something he couldn't control? Was he damaged, defective, a mistake?

Kirk's got some explainung to do when we get back to the ship, cause if he's been around for as long as he says, he had to gave given the okay for this. Genuis commandef manages to screw up yet another newborn. Someone else should've been put in charge of that, dammit.[/i]
