Brotherhood Bar-Talks

[bluntpencil2001]

Ares takes a seat next to Juan Montoya and gives a displeased smile. He hands his friend a beer and sips his own,

"You sure know how to make me look a fool, eh, amigo? Treating me just like those damn LDDLG, whatever the hell that stands for, after they hack private communications. You then proceed to tell us to 'help each other'.

That was what I was saying all along! That we had been defending Gamma without the help of many so-called Corsairs. And then it appeared that he had been listening in the whole bloody time... Probably hired a Lane Hacker."

Ares shakes his head and clenches his fists, obviously furious,

"Look, Juan, I'm your friend, I was right about Gentle the bloody Hessian, and these fools have been seen carrying Inferno cannons in large amounts, similar to the path the OPG took. In fact, that idiot that uses punctuation in his name is behaving very similarly to that so-called 'Pirate King'.

They intentionally forget the blood and sweat my wing and I put into defending this purgatory of a home we've been forced to live on. They expect respect for provoking the Phantoms into conflict at Tripoli. The Phantoms! The damned Phantoms!

We were this close to getting them to targetting the Outcasts for supporting those Asgard bastards and the LDDLG shoot at them! We can't afford to worry about the Phantoms right now, Montoya. You've heard the stories."

He loosens up a bit,

"Sorry, sorry... I just worry about what the Corsair people are falling to... the Brotherhood and my sister are pretty much the only ones that I can rely on. The Corsairs are meant to be familia, all for one and all that jazz, comprende?"

He leans back on his seat, trying to calm himself down, hoping that Juan spares him the condescension. After all, Ares had been trying to be less confrontational over the past few weeks, especially after being contacted by the strange Nayehiya shaman, but it seemed that there were always folks that wanted to make a name for themselves, hiding behind the protection of their betters.
