<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">Nightstar</span>&<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orange">Rose Wilson</span>:<br/><br/>Nightstar arched an eyebrow as she listened to her Godmother,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">"Really? Because Dad is the one who is enforcing the rule on me, and when I argued the point that is was outdated he threatened to pull me from the team."</span>she replied simply as she watched the woman work. She could track every keystroke, after all her dad was a pretty good hacker himself and she had picked up a thing or two from him. Then as she heard the comments about Artemis she frowned,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">"Artemis is my second, she's the most experienced person on the team, and I trust her with my life. Besides that, I would rather her be the Team Leader instead of me... but the League doesn't agree with me."</span>she added calmly as she glanced towards the others.<br/><br/>Rose watched as Cera left, she didn't mind the view in the slightest, if the girl didn't want to wear pants then she didn't mind staring at her bare ass all day, and maybe more. Turning her attention back to Artemis she smirked,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orange">"No my dear Archer, you'd be tied to my bed while I fu...."</span>whatever she was about to say was cut off by the sudden hug from someone she had never met in her life. For a slit second all she could do was blink in confusion, she also noted the scuff from Artemis' direction as she was called "Princess", before she pushed the blonde girl back.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orange">"Don't ever do that again... I'll forgive you this <i>one</i> time. I am not a Princess, nor this Opel person. I am Rose Wilson. You'd do well to remember that."</span>she replied, perhaps too harshly, but Rose was known for her abrasiveness if nothing else. Glancing past the girl that had hugged her she noticed Velocity's return and judged by her expression things were about to get interesting.<br/><br/>Nightstar rounded on Velocity as she approached and frowned at the comments the speedster made. She let her finish her rant, which went way off topic by the end, Nightstar narrowed her eyes behind her blacked out shades.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">"Are you finished?"</span>she asked, her voice level and calm, Olive, Oracle, and Artemis would know this was a bad sign. Rose heard the tone and turned her attention towards their leader.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">"I don't care how fast you were going, or how much control you had or if someone bumped you or not. The point of the matter is, you ignored not one, but <i>two</i> warnings to slow down. What happens when you run into a teammate going that fast, did you ever think of that? If you ignore a warning to slow down again, I'm benching you! If you can't follow warnings here, you can't follow orders in the field. Then you'll really get someone hurt or killed."</span>she said as she stepped into the center of the room so everyone could hear her.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#9966ff">"This is still new to a lot of you, so you still see it as a game, as something fun and exciting. But one day you're going to face someone like Two-face or The... The Joker. Then you're going to come face to face with "the Abyss" standing on the edge where one wrong step will send you tumbling into the darkness and no one will be able to pull you out or save you. Your action here affect your actions out there. We have rules for a reason, we train for a reason. So when it really matters we can count on each other and when you face that Abyss you'll know what to do and be able to step back from it. So if you don't like the rules, there's the door!"</span>Nightstar said, her voice level and her anger hidden as she pointed towards the actual exit and not the boom-tube. With that she turned and walked out of the main common area of the base and made her way towards the room where they kept halo statues of past members that had died. If anyone chose to follow her she wanted them to see what the price of doing their duty could be.
