That's not very reassuring.

@Host

It's just the way it works. It's like a rock-paper-scissors thing. Ignoring all other factors, luck beats flexibility, flexibility beats planning, and olanning beats luck.

-Soren- I'll take your word for it.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Ruby- Can you think of anybody else to bring in, then? I can't.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

-Ruby- It's worth noting that I'll be making sure all of the power is directed toward each connection, actually.

@Balance

Even worse. That's more placed on your shoulders. More room for error.

@Etcetera

Too much can lead to some getting in others' way. There's a point where efficiency becomes mistakes as the numbers pile on.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

And if they're completely equal?

@Host

Luck.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

So both of you can keep finding another way and be stuck in deadlock.

@Host

Until one proves to be more adaptable than the other.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Thanks.

@Balance

And whatever you write, I'll probably edit it at some point to include lore, minir details, and other such things.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

X: I disagree with this statement.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

X: Noted.

<Snipped quote by Balance>

*Laughs*
Data: To a great extent.

@Etcetera

Okay.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

But doesn't it apply to the enemy too?

@Host

Yep.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

-Soren- That's apparently X's decision, but I agree.

@Balance

Hm.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

But is it always true?

@Host

If you're flexible enough, or adaptable, as you said, then yes.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Soren- Great. It's good to meet you. Do you have any prior experience in mental manipulation?

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

-Ruby- Are you strong mentally?

@Balance

If you let him in, make that the cutoff. There's such a thing as too much help.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

What did Sven do for the government?

@Balance

He was the Mayor. Which, in respect to Waternaux, is like President.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Well, it's only got like two sentences written by me right now. If you want to write it, feel free to.

Got it. Did the Big X have anything to do with ruling it?

@Balance

I'd like to see what you come up with, just out of curiosity.

They were to Waternaux what the Justice League was to Earth. Chaos inhibitors, if you will. They helped maintain order without being directly involved in the government, except for Sven.
