Fortitude Round 12 Start

[mamarosa]

Dolorosa stands on her familiar spot on the podium flanked by Fortitude's prefects: Nanami, Lelouch, Yuri, Dave, Jade, Sora, John, Becca, Dirk, Jane, and Jake. The number of prefects just keeps growing and she smiles at each one of them, proud of how far they've gotten.

She turns her attention back to the rest of the Fortitude students, "Good morning everyone, I trust you have had a good and eventful round. By the extra raks in your pockets I'm sure you have noticed that you have won the round, for that I congratulate you."

"Special congratulations should go to Dirk for defeating Alex and Jade, Jade for defeating Dirk, Komachi for defeating America, and Dirk and Jade for winning the round," she pauses to applaud those who have won, "You have all come so far since the very first round, and I know you will progress further from here. Don't let anything hinder your progress.

"And for this round's players, I wish luck to:
Lelouch vi Britannia
Bubblecup
Merlin
Komachi Onozuka
Nanami Asagi
Sora Himoto

May you have a fruitful round."

Shion nodded, "I don't think I'm allowed to buy things alone..." He frowned, he didn't like the rules. He didn't like that it made other people less than others, when all should be equal.

"Then let me know if you ever want to buy something. You have my permission to eat off the full menu and to use your communicator as well." Asagi gave an easy smile, actually deciding in his head if Shion would look good in a maid's outfit, though it probably just seemed like he was trying to be reassuring.

"Thank you." Shion didn't have a communicator but he assumed that he meant the computers as well. "It is appreciated." Even if it was unfair.

Asagi pulls out a cigarette, before realizing that he hadn't gotten any spare matches yet. He pulls out his lighter and passes it to Shion, "Can you give me a hand?" Not remembering how to light his own lighter was going to be a huge pain.

"I don't see why you shouldn't have the same rights." He really didn't. Or at least have the rights someone would have if they were in a job they really needed and couldn't quit. That tended to be the basic kind of situation his employees were in.

Shion took the lighter, it took a moment for him to work out how to use it but soon he had lit it and held it out so Asagi could light his cigarette. "Neither do I, no one should have any fewer rights than anyone else."

Everyone was equal and it made him furious that this place tried to claim otherwise.

"I have not given much thought to the subject," Asagi replied nonchalantly. He hadn't. Laws were part of the human's interests, and he didn't involve himself heavily in human affairs.

[savedbyasong]

"Oh..." Shion had, or more he hadn't because it just seemed to him like a very obvious conclusion. All people were the same and therefore should be treated equally. So far he had not found anyone who agreed with him, and really he shouldn't be surprised that there was no one here either.

[the_stand_cometh]

Asagi might generally be a dick, but he did believe in human rights. He still hadn't given much thought on that particular subject, "But I don't discriminate against the people who need my help. I don't get involved in human laws and human problems because I have no right to. They don't concern me."

After all, even if he looked like he could be an albino, he wasn't; he was a completely different species.
