Was the situation something that affected you? Or are you simply the type who sees that something needs to be done, and chooses to do it?

[he rests his chin in his palm there, watching him curiously.]

[leaberator]

[ there's a smile pulling at his lips at the latter option, but it's not a nice one. ]

What do you think?

[wagashis]

I think most people are more motivated when they have some personal stake in things.

[leaberator]

Sounds about right.

[ he shrugs ]

Even the ones who are all "do the right thing 'cause someone has to" have been directly impacted by it, though. That's just how things wound up.

[wagashis]

An all-encompassing sort of threat, was it... you really did come prepared for this sort of thing, then.

[given that this is the universe's core at stake, and all.]

And is it still unresolved?

[leaberator]

[ isn't that the question. ]

Sorta. The most recent threat was dealt with, so we've been in a peaceful lull, but... [ hmmm ] Nothing's ever truly over with that stuff.

[ kh never ends ]

[wagashis]

Then do you intend to try to put a stop to it from here? Or are you content enough to return to work when the threat returns?

[leaberator]

No way, man. Once I'm back from this place, I'm enjoying my break. You got any idea how long it's been since I could stop for a minute?

[wagashis]

As a matter of fact, I don't-- but I assume the answer is 'long enough'. Possibly 'too long'.

[leaberator]

An eternity. Until I get the call, I'm planning to enjoy myself for as long as I can.

[wagashis]

What sort of plans do you have for that time, then? Just taking the chance to relax?

[leaberator]

Yep. Hang out with some friends and take it easy for a while. [ a beat ] Prolly after I sleep for like, three days straight.
