Ethnia finished off the rest of her drink in one go, putting the glass back down with a *clunk*. She let out a sigh before shaking her head and opening the envelope.<br/><br/>"Congrats Cap'n, you let out a damn good depressing speech. I can tell ya now that<span class="bbc_u">none of us</span>are going to back down or back out. The military is my life, it is what I know and it is how I was raised. Not that I'd have a choice anymore with this chip in my head. Key is something similar. She can't back out now, and the military is one of the few places that'll take her. I can't say I know Sean's story, but he wouldn't have gone through the training if it meant saying 'fuck it' the first chance he got.<br/><br/>Yes, we're losing. But we're going to push back and struggle any damn way we can. If we can't kick those bugs off this planet, we'll drag 'em to hell with us." She was looking directly at Natalie, her eyes serious.<br/><br/>"Now how about we head to the back and enjoy our last night ashore before we gotta parade our asses our there for the media?"<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2012-02-05 12:49:50, Ethnia (uid: 26413) rolls: 2d10 Result: 17 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=34995)<br/>Roll of 10 + 6 plus another 2 to anyone who would be attracted to Ethnia.
