<Snipped quote by System>

This whole organisation is chock full of people who would prefer that others in this organisation did not exist, and that’s the entire problem. If we all got our wish, we’d all be gone. So we’re all going to have to learn to deal with each other. *Pauses* If I have to say sorry for insulting you, I will. But I won’t be your doormat.

@Disdain

Despite the fact that we'd all be better off.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

If I don’t want to deal with someone who wants me to pretend I don’t exist, what is that to you? *Groans* This is exactly how I’m not supposed to be acting.

@Disdain

I'm not the only one who would prefer you not exist.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

I resent that, but I’m not going to waste my voice arguing with you and give you space to take more of it away from me. Any concessions I make, I’m making out of very strained courtesy, because I’m sure you’re as concerned about this as I am.

What the probability Codex said. I need to get her name. But we’re all going to die unless we all work together not to die, so I’m glad you came.

@Disdain

I consider that an insult at best.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

*Indignantly*Allow me—! *Takes a deep breath* Authority and voice are two different things entirely.

@Disdain

And you've forfeited both.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

Look, the way I see it, you and I both feel like the other is going to ruin everything for the Codex. I’m not content to stay once the background, but you make good points about my previous chances, and I hate that, but I’m willing to play second or third or fourth fiddle so we don’t butt heads as long as I can still talk.

@Disdain

I see no reason to allow you any level of authority after what you've done.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

We’ll just see what the situation demands. Ask your questions with a loud voice, if you want; step to the front when you do it, if you want. Just don’t act deliberately divisively. I’ll try not to, either. I had a bad enough time with Seth, and that ended... as badly as anything could.

@Disdain

Again, I would kindly ask that you step into the background and remain there. I have enough to worry about as it is.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

I’m not making it to anybody but myself. My speech is done; the Codex are “galvanised” for now. Let’s stop making airs.

@Disdain

Then I think it's your turn to step away.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

There’s a new difference to make, and another chance to make right decisions rather than the wrong ones. I won’t stand by idly this time, whether or not I lead.

@Disdain

That's a wonderful empty promise to make.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

You speak as if I've promised to create the plan. I'm just ensuring there will be one, and that we'll all have the motivation to follow it.

@Disdain

I think that you've already wasted your chance to make a difference. It's your turn to be victim to the whims of others.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

I'm just doing what seems right. Someone had to talk. If you want to set yourself up as a leader, then you can try later, but right now, I have the most credibility, and I'm going to use it while I can to make sure we're all willing to not die. Details can come later.

@Disdain

I've seen your hand when trying to prevent death. In fact, I'd call death preferable.
