Hey Amiti? Would you be more inclined to come if you knew that you could defend yourself if something happened? I mean, that's the thing that this whole thing started over, right? ... *Looks highly uncomfortable* Do not worry yourself. I will not be here long. I'm not worried. I'm not asking you to leave for any reason. I'm wondering if you'd feel more comfortable if you knew that you could defend yourself. And others.

I'd have to take a picture with my computer camera, though, since my sister took both the memory card and battery out of my camera since she lost hers :I Metalman and Glados are both also in the painting. As is a super long blonde pony-tail and some yellow boomerangs. Ahhh. :B ...i somehow read that as "Metalman and Glados are both partying in the painting* "..." *Walks in cautiously, looking ready to leave at a moment's notice* What's "shortbread"? You've never had it before? D: This must be rectified immediately. Wait right there. *runs off to go get some* ~ *Tilts his head* Alright? I will wait.

I'm wondering if you'd feel more comfortable if you knew that you could defend yourself. And others. *Closes his eyes and sighs, holding a few fingertips to his crown and shaking his head* I come to this world to relax. I fight only when necessary. If I feel I can avoid a conflict here, I will try to do so. It's not as much ability as it is necessity. EDIT: Oh man shortbread cookies @___@ *Accepts some of the cookies from Chloe* (These are very good!)Can I have some :'DDDD

It's kind of abstract but it resembles an upturned face with light radiating from it... of course it also kind of looks like it's saying something. Hmm... My mental image is probably way off, but at least the description is something to go off of. Thanks.

If I feel I can avoid a conflict here, I will try to do so. It's not as much ability as it is necessity. Still, it doesn't need to rise to a fight. Say a robber came in with a knife. You could point a gun in his face – you wouldn't need to fire, you could jut point it – he wouldn't want his brains blasted out, and he'll run off without doing anything. Conflict avoided. Even if he does still try something, you can change your aim to his fighting arm, or to his leg, and he won't be able to do anything. Major conflict still avoided. It's a simple yes-or-no question: Would you feel more comfortable?

Until that changes, the ability to defend myself will hardly make me more comfortable. I thought I had that anyway.

*in case it hasn't been noticed already, I posted on MoDEoN* ... Actually, I'm wondering if you two (Chloe and Scrac) have it set up so that you get alerts on that, yet. I'm wondering because I'd like to know if I still need to bother.
EDIT: And just as I post, I get an alert for a new post. X3

X3 I just keep a separate tab open for the main Taco Cart and refresh that every few minutes. I think I did try to set the notification thing up once so I got an alert whenever I got a PM (since I'm not really used to getting them and so sometimes I can go for a while without realising I have a new one), but I couldn't figure out how to do it. :B

My stepdad often gets tins of them as Christmas/birthday presents and we usually reuse the tins, so we have a lot of tartan shortbread tins around the kitchen. :B

Until that changes, the ability to defend myself will hardly make me more comfortable. I thought I had that anyway. But it can be changed. We're Writers. We can make crazy-awesome things and give them to people. I bet you'd feel better if you knew everyone and anyone could handle something. And hey, if the bad guys knew, I bet they'd stop trying in the first place. In fact, it's been done in our world, and it's actually happened. It's been proven that when a populace can defend themselves, crime rates drop dramatically, incredibly. Criminals – who don't care about weapon restrictions and are going to have weapons because they're breaking the law anyway – tend to seek greener pastures, so to speak. Forget necessity; they're not likely to have the ability. I propose that we make the same a reality (so to speak) in the Taco.
