Raven barely had time to laugh at Callius' story about the squirrel when Alice popped in.<br/><br/>Raven was actually more surprised by Alice deciding to follow them than she was from Alice's comments.<br/>Such a naive view would be expected from someone raised by Rebecca Hackett. It was only a matter of time before the twos' contrasting views would be made clear.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"To be fair, he was basically the most skilled cyberneticist in the galaxy, and an extremely well-respected figure in the entire Warengion society. At least, that's what Mother always tells me." </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>With All do respect, your mother always was a bit naive...she had a tendancy to put a positive spin on even the most vile creatures, a real gift actually.<br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"Prejudice against high technology aside, you can't deny that his loss wasn't a good thing for the galaxy. Imagine the sorts of wonders that could've been created if he was still around? <br/>His prosthetics work was good, I'll give you that, but we could have easily ended up with an army of Synthetic Snakes to contend with, and NOBODY wants that!"<br/>Raven's eyes grew wide with malice when Callius mentioned the Geth, but she bit her tongue, this wasn't the topic at hand so she wouldn't bring up old wounds. She was glad he backed up her point about the Synthetic threat though.<br/><br/>With Alice's next comment Raven gave her a nasty glare that could melt the armor plating off a Krogan when Alice used the word "defiler".<br/><br/>She then looked at Callius, <br/>"It's all fine, better we get our disagreements out in the open than to let them fester, I only shoot things that have glowing blue eyes. Her mother was a snake-lover so I wont hold it against her." Raven made sure not to look at Alice when she said this, in case her eyes were in fact blue, or glowing. The way she said "snake-lover" she hoped it'd carry the same sting as the tern "defiler" carried with her, as she said it in a manner more akin to "snake fucker". Of course the notion of revenge was rather petty, but this wasn't revenge, simply a lesson on how titles can hurt the person being called by that title. She actually respected both of them so she hoped her response wasn't taken in as harshly as it sounded when she said it.<br/><br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>
