1.1.01.01.028: sacrifices for the good of the community.

[needshumility]

You know, I like being here, sometimes. All the... violence, the chaos...

It reminds me why the Rules exist. Because not a single one of you act with regard for anyone else. You're all selfish and have no concern for the Collective. No concern for each other.

You Previous... you're everything we were told. Worship of the Me. That's what we believe you all did, with your hollow eyes and your Parker Brothers' maps.

And that's all I see, day in, day out, here.

I can't wait to get home. Soon. I miss Constance. That's the appropriate thing to say, right?

Lime is a narcotic. Abuse of medicinal hue, especially Green, can lead to the degradation of the visual cortex.

Jane Brunswick needs us to intervene. Sooner rather than later. We need to remove the Greens she's requested from her possession before she damages herself seriously.

[Private to Victor]

Fifty merits if you can find anyone affected by the... strangeness some people are demonstrating. It's worrying and disruptive to the collective.


Also, violin lessons tonight. Bring the Vivaldi.
[Private to Una]

I'm worried about Jane. She just... refuses to listen to the Rules and I don't want her to go... on the Night Train, you know?

I'm sure she's not crazy like people say, but... the way she treats me, the things she does...

She will deserve what ever happens to her.

No, it doesn't. You cannot work around fact forever.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

No, see...I wouldn't be.

That's the beauty of actually understanding the world.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

The Rules provide us with all the understanding we need.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

Your Rules are illogical.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Our Rules are infallible.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

That's a bold statement to make.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't make it if it wasn't true.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

If they weren't, that other woman wouldn't complain so loudly against them. And break them, if I'm not mistaken.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

She's a little crazy.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, I think that of almost everyone here.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

So do I. But Jane needs help.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

Fortunately, that's not your job.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Actually, it is.

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. Your...system.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Exactly.
