Voting: the Inner Debate
Nov. 22nd, 2006 06:06 pmFrankie: "So, who're we voting for?"
Tsubasa: "This guy, apparantly."
Anna: "That's a woman."
Michelle: "And rightly so, women are so much more. Stronger in spirit, more graceful, they've got great taste in..."
Frankie: "...men"
Michelle: "I was going to say 'fashion' "
Frankie: "That goes for gay people too."
Tsubasa: "There's nothing wrong with gay people."
Anna: "So, who's this Espi guy anyway?"
Lanelle: "I never knew you could read?"
Anna: "Er... right. I can't. Xantara explained what it said."
*Xantara shrugs and nods.*
Michelle: "It's the SP. And why on earth are we voting SP?"
Tis: "They're nice guys."
Lanelle: "We should be voting for these guys."
Frankie: "What, the treehugging hippies agree on this of all things? Animals are our friends. Sjeesh."
Xantara, Lanelle and Anna: "WHAT?!"
Tis: "I dunno. Why not? I mean, the SP sounds very...brief. At least this looks like it's a long name that means a lot."
Xantara: "You can't read either?"
Tis: "Uh-uh. Never got around to learning it."
Xantara: "I could teach you."
Michelle: "People! Focus, please. Why do we vote for this SP anyway?"
Tsubasa: "They provide healthcare and education, although they do have some pretty radical ideas about reforming the government, apparantly. What's this wriggly line mean?"
Xantara: "That's their logo."
Tis: "We used to grow tomatoes on the farm. Before I left, that is."
Michelle: "If we are going to vote, why don't we vote for these nice people. Granted, the Ventrue probably hold a few strings..."
Frankie: "The Who?"
Lanelle: "No, the Ventrue."
Michelle: "...but they're all for stimulating economical growth. Attracting new companies, i.e. more work, i.e. more wealth and food for all."
Anna: "You want to vote VVD? That's what this is all about?"
Michelle: "That or the D66, though those guys only enforce the status quo. But that suits me just fine."
Frankie: "Say, why don't we all vote what we like?"
Tsubasa: "We only get one vote."
Frankie: "What, all of us? Just one vote?"
Michelle: "How about 'your multiple personalities don't count, Malkav.' ?"
Anna: "I dunno, that's from your world."
Michelle: "Well, you don't have much to say, do you? You're all dead."
Frankie: "Look who's talking."
Anna: "I was discontinued! And it was not my fault, the world just ceased to exist!"
Frankie: "Been there, done that."
Xantara: "At least my death was sufficiently romantic. With a bizarre and bitter aftertaste."
Frankie: "Whatever takes your fancy, Zan, but anyway, I say fuck the system."
Tsubasa: "What do you mean, exactly?"
Frankie: "Fuck it! I mean, look at us, squabbling over who gets to push the button, what party represents us best. Like we're ever going to reach a decision. If we were to just vote for these weirdo's, the whole political system will fail, yadda yadda, anarchy ensues, some public assassinations, and martial law. Boom, we will be in charge. Now that's what I'm talking 'bout."
Anna: "That's just crazy."
Frankie: "That's how you survive. Watch me, you furry-loving creep. Sorry, creeps, jeez, I can't believe there's three of you treedodgers in here."
Tsubasa: "This guy, apparantly."
Anna: "That's a woman."
