"D-did I really?" Lucifer's look of confusion morphed into one of shock. He had? He had! He was trying so hard not to! He bit his lip as he tried to think of the best explanation he could use. "I...I didn't know...that's...um..." Darn it! That wasn't convincing! It wasn't even a full sentence! It explained nothing! He stared at the floor for a moment before he finally gave a nervous grin. "I'm sure it's nothing. It's definitely not anything to do with any past experimentation incidents, that's for sure." His face lit back up at Liz's decision to try the potion. "Thank you! I'm sure it will be helpful! Or at least I hope that it will be. Either way, I guess we'll know soon!"

"...My dear lad, I suggest you learn how to lie or not do so at all, trust me I know a lie when I see one" Willis said. First giving Liz a strange concoction then lying to our faces? What was the boy up too?

Liz gave Lucifer a confused look. What an odd man he was. He almost made Willis seem normal. She picked up the thermos. She snuffed it. It smelled good enough. She took a small taste. It tasted alright. Satified she quickly finished off the drink

"Liz? Are you ok? Can you hear me? Are you feeling ok? Liz?" Willis asked Nervously. Hopefully she would not die or fall ill from this

Willis narrowed his eyes, as Lucifers reassurances done little to make him feel any better but he decided that he had made his point clear and if that had not done anything to alter the situation then nothing else he would say could. But Lucifers response to his question left Willis simply confused, had he not heard the boy right? Had he mistaken what he said for something else? Was Willis going crazy after all? There was only one way to find out "...Before. Just a few moments ago when you were talking about your poi- I mean Concoction, You referred to Liz as "Master". Liz you heard him too right?"

They did fine, eh? WW1: Russia left the war during the revolution, America only actual joined battle for half a year despite having officially been at war for over a year (Though I'd say this was more greed) and the French had to set up machine guns facing away from the Germans because so many of their soldiers kept running away.

Russia left the war because Lenin saw that it was a war of Imperial powers and not a war of the common (Russian) man. It would have been a bit silly of him after campaigning for so long against the Imperial Empires to go help fight for them

Murica had a isolationist policy and so they tried to stay out of the European wars as much as possible because they wanted to cash in as much as possible. And then, as Darcs pointed out, Germany began to attack trade routes important to Murica and so of course they needed to defend their wealth.

And Call me a coward but I too would run at the sight of machine guns

WW2: The French surrendered, Russians only fought because Stalin was worse (In fact, many towns in Western Russia at first thanked the Germans for conquering them and didnt resist) The Chinese collapsed into a civil war, the USA only joined half way through and got their arse handed to them until they swallowed their pride and joined up with the British and Frew French (I am of course reffering to Africa... Where the American soldiers ran away in their first battles). The Germans and Italians lost the war. I that they did fine.

The french didnt surrender, they were invaded and had to go Guerrilla, have you not heard of Charles de Gaulle and the Resistance?

While the Old Imperial Powers of Europe were fighting amongst themselves Stalin had almost re carved the entire Old Tsardom of Russia and even a little more. This meant that he had a border with Germany and so things began to get a little tense as neither Hitler nor Stalin liked having a Superpower on their doorstep. And so Stalin was willing to help the allies in order to remove Hitler. Then Hitler done a deal with Stalin convincing him that they could share Europe, But then Hitler betrayed Stalin and so Stalin hid in his office for about ten days (no joke) and then hit back in full force.

When a foreign power has invaded you and your country has a weak, divided and old fashioned form of Government your country is also likely to fall in Chaos

Whats your point aboot America?

Oh really? Can i see a Source? Not that i doubt you I'm simply curious about it

darkwolf687 said
Right, and when the revolution starts you expect the world to be fine with such? Oh, and the people will win? This is the 21st century, now more than ever rich people have the advantage.And the other uneven playing field?

The world may not be fine but it will be better than it is now. There may be more rich than ever before who are are more powerful than ever before but the people have a advantage, numbers. Of course numbers alone cannot win a war but as the rich use more extreme measures to protect their wealth the numbers of the Revolution will grow

darkwolf687 said
So you know, France after the French revolution and Russia after the October revolution all ended up so even, right?

Like I said before most, if not all, Revolutions in the past have not had the correct Prerequisites

Everyone except Romanians.

Has history ever been nice to Romania?

Your Political Ideology

You can argue that we could have done it without them isnt inherently true. In war, morale is very important. Would we replace them with a president? A man who the majority of the country will have voted again and will despise? Even less people like Britains elected officials than like the monarchy, good luck uniting the people behind a president...

Moral? Pah! Troops know what they got themselves into and they should be willing to fight for whatever reason they joined. Although Britian did have Conscription at the time no? Well in that case the task of keeping the troops in order are of even greater importance to the commander

And anyway other countries without monarchs seem to do just fine, are you Brits that reliant on your Monarch that you would lose all hope if they left you?

darkwolf687 said
As for a brave fool, I have in my time come to the conclusion that a brave and honoirable fool is better than a wise man. The wise seem to endlessly plan each others dimise

Both the brave and the foolish die because of recklessness, or as some like to say "courage", on the frontlines. Better is the wise or the cowardly who actuallly live

darkwolf687 said
As for a revolution, I hope you arent serious. Very few revolutions with noble goals have ever ended in happiness. and more often lots of sorrow. A revolution may be the only way to "even the playing field", but it will end in another uneven field. This is the invariably truth of humanity, we'll just be wasting time.

Thats because most revolutions did not have the right prerequisites unlike what Britian has today, a "advamced" Capitalistic economy, reliance on other countires for resources and trade, more Economic crisis's coming at a greater pace, and as always, disatisfaction with the system

And what is this other uneven playing field?

As for wasting time, I must wholeheartedly disagree

darkwolf687 said
Why just go Europe? Because at the moment thats realistic. I can say "The entire Earth should be united" until the cows come home, but to unite a planet you must first unite a continent.Put it this was; The tribes of Great Britain were transitory componants into the old kingdoms, which were transition states into England, Scotland etc, which were transition states into the UK, which is a transition state into the EU, which will be a transition state into a UE.

Well of course. I never said we have to do it all in one fell swoop.

Willis still did not like the idea of this, after all you could never be too careful and secondly he had learnt many times in the past you can not take someones word alone. Not to mention Lucifers word was not exactly the most reliable for one, the lad was a little odd and more importantly he did say this was the first time he had made this. But as he looked at them both he could see the determination in Liz's eyes and the confidence in Lucifers. And after all who was he to stop Liz? She was no child, but a grown adult not meant to be coddled by a old man. And so at last he said through clenched teeth and in a low growl, quiet enough that only the three could hear it "I swear... If this doesn't work... Or if she falls ill because of this... This potion or whatever... Then you will not see the light of day again, you can have my word on that"

There was one additional thing that was bothering him however, he noticed that Lucifer used the term "master". It was Queer to be sure, but after all a Queer boy will do Queer things. But of course Willis could not help himself but ask "Before we begin this nonsense I have one question. Why did you refer to Liz as master?"
