Sooooo.

Here's a bit of an awkward question:

How many of you guys have someone you don't exactly like holed up in one of those pods? And I don't just mean like "wow that guy's a dick" I'm talking more along the lines of "this guy is a GIANT dick and he will definitely try to kill us [ read: him ] when he wakes up."

Is there any way to...I don't know, pull the plug out of the pods? or something? Do you think we'd get in trouble for that?

[ A little casual accidentally-on-purpose murder never hurt anyone right? Like especially when it's for the greater good, which this totally is. ]

Comments

I said I wanted weapons and didn't get any, so they don't seem too loose with gifts.

[ hopefully that's the cut-off for more sinister incentives, though her request didn't cause alarm, either. would dangerous asks be honoured in due time? ]

What's a Celestial?

[beatupgrass]

In simple terms, it's a god. Just not the kind anyone does all the bowing and praying shit to- those don't exist. These guys are just big, arrogant cosmic beings who do weird things sometimes.

[Rocket talks like he's an expert. In reality, his entire exposure to Celestials is the five minutes he's been on Ego's planet, some stories from Yondu, Knowhere's existence, and a brief video montage in the Collector's museum that he was half paying attention to.]

[insurgent]

so
very dangerous

[ great. now the extra bad guys have jedi powers or whatever. ]

guess we need to find something to bargain with
or someone better with technology

[beatupgrass]

Maybe I'll just start building my own weapons. It's always done me well in the past.

[He's 2/2 on Technology MacGuffins That Saved The Day here. Assuming the bomb works.

It's a big assumption, but he'll take it.]

[insurgent]

i could help with that

[ mainly because she wants a slice of the preemptive murder pie. ]

[beatupgrass]

It's always nice to meet someone who ain't squeamish about this kind of thing.

...which, to be honest, seems to be most of us. It's kinda awesome.

[insurgent]

sometimes this kind of thing is necessary.

[ and it's nothing, compared to what she's lived and seen. for some people, death is a kindness, given what they've done to others. ]

we should be able to figure something out
together

[beatupgrass]

One way or another, I always gotta embrace teamwork. I think somebody's trying to tell me something.

[insurgent]

it sounds sentimental, when you put it like that

[beatupgrass]

You can't hear it, but I'm gagging right now.

[insurgent]

you made me gag first
