Maria:... I think learning by example would do this one good. Give him a Fed ship and drop him in Delta. In fact, I can give him an Austrian one if you like.

You don't make allies by threatening them with a bigass gun!

It worked on Faerun...
I pointed the gun at the planet, said "surrender and get your free dental and cookies or die", and 5 minutes later Elminster Aumar was selling me the planet in exchange for Regime services in beating up various dirtbags.
I kind of cheated him, since the Regime actively protects and polices all of its territories and colonies, but still...
Yea... and what if you try that on some world that has a BIGGER gun huh? What then?

No ship has a bigger gun than the Superior Force!

You don't know that! You assume that! For all you know... the next planet might have a frakkin' antiproton beam capable of slicing right through solid neutronium! There is ALWAYS a bigger fish out there! You are NOT the biggest!

Oh, duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude, that would be AWESOME!!!!!
We could totally take readings of that and make one of our own to replace any ships we lost! And since we have the evac protocols, loss of life would be minimal to none.
Man, that would be COOL!
Hail Ba'al!

*Pins worffan to the wall, fox fangs now clearly visible, along with a now very puffed up fox tail*
You are an idiot! You're not even listening!
By assuming you're the biggest kid on the block, you are setting yourself up to get your head handed to you by someone down the road! You think no one can touch you! Well guess what?
*Pokes worffan's head*
Touch.
A big gun means nothing if the enemy can take it and use it on you, or has something that makes it look like a firecracker! You want an example? DIABLO! How effective was your big gun on him?!

Well, "Basic Diplomacy for Dummies" probably wouldn't have worked on him anyway.

I'll catch up as soon as I'm done ripping the Grand Vizier a new one for stupidity.

No...wouldn't be a good idea to kill someone who's a high ranking officer of a guy who's got that level of tech.

*Relaxes, and looses the fangs*
It was from before Kuntel and I hooked up. Something happened, which turned me into an anthro vixen with blue fur. Shadow helped with coming up with something, and I got the bright idea of keeping the fox side around because of the advantages it could provide. Mixed bag really. Better hearing isn't always a good thing. Same with enhanced sense of smell. And... if I lose my temper, I kinda... fox out unintentionally.
What you saw... wasn't the full extent. Sometimes its just the ears... sometimes the tail... sometimes... full of fox. And that's only if I lose my temper. Normally I can control it, but... like anyone... things slip when angry.
Maria: Genetic experimentation is something the Austrians have... experienced before.
And I meant, how did you gain the ability of controlling it?

When I turned into that vixen... that was it. I was a vixen. No idea how it happened, and no changing period. Shadow came up with the idea of modifying an existing retrovirus to allow me to change back. Getting a sample of it though... that was interesting...
