Like a magical mystery party bus. Scooby Doo meets the Beatles on spring break. [If this were a cartoon, there would be dollar signs in her eyes.]

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He grins widely at that because that sounds like true perfection, really.]

I think that's a winner. You should try and make that happen.

[morethanasidekick]

Yeaaah... [Doubt creeping into her voice.]

There's a fatal flaw in this plan though. [Reaching for her drink.] Effort.

[pwnspatrickjane]

I tend to judge effort by the payoff. Is this the kind of effort that will get me something I really want? If the answer is yes, it probably won't take much effort at all.

[morethanasidekick]

Well. What everyone really wants is money. [As if... that's just a given?!] So if I want a lot of money then I need this to be hugely successful, right? Which means multiplying the effort needed by at least ten. Which means, no more Knights. One. I only just earned my stripes after being a Squire for almost three years and Two? Free bar tab.

Overall? Yeah it's not gonna happen.

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He nods slowly as he considers.]

And don't we get totally flush paychecks to begin with?

[morethanasidekick]

And an expense account. [That is the smile of somebody who totally abuses the Knights credit card.]

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He nods with a smirk, because he totally does too.]

That too. And killer benefits.

[morethanasidekick]

Yeah it's the - [Nose wrinkling.] - Killer bit that's a little worrisome.

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He pauses before nodding in agreement because yeah. Actually dying is something he can do without.]

At least they can bring you back, right? If you want to be brought back, that is.

[morethanasidekick]

Ahhh.... duh? [She really doesn't understand why anyone wouldn't to be honest.] What am I going to do? Say no on religious grounds? If it was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me.

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He laughs at that before nodding.]

That is a very good point.
