Gods, that was the worst part about it. All those people praying to something that looked at them like funny bugs. I don't know what possesses people to worship things out to destroy them, I really don't, but I see it time and again.

Fear.

[ His vicious glee fades just a bit into something a little more pensive. ]

They kiss ass in the hope that they'll end up spared.

I'd agree with you if I hadn't seen the fervor in some of their eyes. I've met cultists before, more times than I'd care to admit. A whole lot of them really buy in wholesale. They really do think it's only everyone else their terrible monster-god will devour.

[jacksonian]

Hah. Yeah. I've seen cultists too. Of course, they all seemed to be dedicated to the cult of my brother.

I guess, really, it's just all about who overwhelms you. Who's charismatic. Who's able to convince you to hurl yourself off a cliff.

[wizzardly]

As likely to get people killed as any other. [an ambivalent agreement.] But with less soul-rending, at least.

[this quickly followed be a scoff.]

There's not charm enough in the universe for me. They'd have to club me and toss me off themselves.

[jacksonian]

I guess that's the only really good thing about Miles. He doesn't really do that.

[wizzardly]

Add a point to his scorecard, then.

[jacksonian]

Yeah, great. Now it's at negative five hundred.
