Well, I...
I don't know. Technically it's not my future anyway, since I'll never return to Omegatropolis... so it shouldn't matter to me. I don't know, it feels strange knowing that there was- Will be... a revolution... and that somehow the rebel country worships the legends of the Brink of Time.
:::Cora shakes her head again:::
Well anyway... Kara's done something terrible, her brother refused to tell their people the truth about this place and she thinks she's saving them from opression...
:::She rubbed her forhead... much the same way Kal did when he thought about all this:::

He listened intently and the next comment couldn't be helped, "Terrible by our standards terrible by his, or terrible by hers? I mean there is quite a big difference between perspectives here. Well...just what is it?"

I have yet to meet anyone who thinks this is acceptable...
:::Cora crossed the space and leaned on the opposite edge of the bar lowered her head down so that she wouldn't have to say it too loudly:::
Kara, tricked Luke into thinking that she wasn't able to concieve a child. And now she's pregnant with his offspring against his will... That's what Kal told me.

His eye twitched...then he seemed to snort...then he just up and busted out laughing. When he finally calmed down a bit he shook his head, "Ok, so she's a good shot and a crafty little whore, if not possibly either stupid or insanely genius. Just why in the hell did she want to go and do that for?"

:::Cora was a bit taken aback at the laughter, she leaned away and put up her hands in confusion::
I- I honeslty am not sure... Kal led me to believe that she thought it was the best way. He said she couldn't just bring one of us to prove her point because the mass reaction would be such a shock, it would be worse than just keeping it from them... I guess this way, they have some time to begin explainging themselves to the people...
Still... to- to do that to Luke. :::Cora shook her head::: I haven't seen him to speak with him about it.

He gave a shrug, "They can't just start stealing our s**t, nooooo, she had to go and steal one of our sperm. Its blasphemy against mankind I tells ya. I mean she held my damn gun and could have run off with it, but did she? Nooooooo. Think of how arrogant that kid is going to be one day...jeez."

You gave her a gun..? And she didn't try to kill YOU with it?
::Cora rubbed her brow again:::
I want to hate that girl, but I don't know if I can...

He glanced to her with a quirked brow, "How the hell else did you think I'd know she'd a good shot? It was a long time ago, before Orcus was reconstructed. Don't think I realized at the time what it meant for her to hold it, but meh."

Why... what did it mean?

His looked turned rather bland, "Its obvious. If I found an artifact related to so-called godly beings and actually got to hold it...jeez...especially if it was from the time near my creation."

Tac shook his head with a sigh, "I would think its something of immeasurable value that it because invaluable. If the christians of my age actually got a lock of God's hair or something, or found the Ark of the Covenant, they'd go all crazy over it. A physical link to something akin to a god...if one is spiritual there is nothing of greater personal value, even if in monetary terms such an item is worthless."

He got all shifty-eye as he started to fade, starting to explain but trailing off to the point where it would leave Cora entirely frustrated.

:::Cora just shook her head:::
I don't know if Tac was trying to make her feel better or not, but she just felt in a huff now.
:::She thought better of that water she wanted, and got some strong red wine instead. Cora marched it back to her room:::
*Exit Cora*
