Cody moved over to a mirror to idly run his fingers through his hair. He smoothed it out while he was talking, as if the topic was casual enough to discuss while making sure he didn't have bed head. "Machiavelli made his choice to be ruthless, but he offered solutions that were more difficult, but could create a stronger platform for command. He stated, and I'm paraphrasing, that one can rule by fear or love -- and while fear is much easier, love is stronger. Most people take from this that if you try to combine the two, you're still ruling by fear even if you don't want to admit it, so just be a jack ass and that's the end of it, but he is offering a hypothetical that if one could rule by love alone, they'd be a better, and more stable, ruler. Though naturally, the likely hood of maintaining that approaches zero with a larger population..."<br/><br/>Cody turned back, realizing he might have been rambling, giving a nervous chuckle, "I uh... Yeah. I'll try to keep the conversation a little lighter. I'm not sure where the other guys live though. I figure they're all students, except for maybe Plu-- Bastian." He looked down and chuckled, "Need to get better at remembering real names. I guess I'm ready to go! Maybe shoot out another text and see if they're planning to meet us there or not?"
