Brotherhood Bar-Talks

[bluntpencil2001]

"Ha! Good work, Benitez! Good to see you kicking in those drug-addicts!" says Ares, thinking better of giving the drunken Corsair another beer.

He looks over the photograph with Maniaco, then points at the 'Kruger' tag on one of the LDDLG before clenching his fist, restraining himself enough to stay quiet...

He collects himself before responding to Pedro's points.

"Yes, I mean you should force them. However they should be considered full members of la familia, not some distant relations, who, in effect are utterly inferior to yourselves when it comes to the affairs of Gamma. The Brotherhood does acte like it is more important in Gamma, after all. They'd get their rights as Brotherhood members, correct? They retain the freedom of your average Brotherhood pilot, which is considerably great, yeah?

Also, you mentioned the OPG and Benitez families largely falling apart... if they were memeber of the Brotherhood instead of these little bands, then they'd be a part of a cohesive whole, not crumbling thanks to bounty hunters and the like.

Besides, when they act as a separate entity, they represent the Corsairs as a nation, whether you like it or not. This is the sort of thing that can bring the Phantoms down on Crete, or similar, right?

In fact, I will meet with the clown. And I will suggest that he joins the Brotherhood and learns to act like a bloody Corsair."

Ares grins.

"I'll even try to watch my language!"
