Do you want to make a difference in this world?

I am.
Right now I'm just curious where other peoople stand.

[purrsistence]

What kinda "difference" were you thinking about?

[batricide]

Overall? Fixing a broken system.

[purrsistence]

Hmmm. I like it. It's got ambition.

How you gonna do it?

[batricide]

Start small. Work on cleaning up the thugs and trace them up through the chain of command.

[ Unlike Catra's previous replies, which had been immediate, there's a bit of a pause before this one comes through. Like she's surprised. ]

What, not concerned about singing to Morningstar's tune? Y'know, the whole, "Don't draw attention to any of us, gotta keep your heads down and play nice so we don't all get in trouble," routine? I swear that's all I've heard since I got here.

[batricide]

I was.
But it turns out the scum of this world is a lot the scum in my world. They aren't playing by the rules so it's time to change the game.
They keep people powerless and reliant on the existing structures. I say we empower the people, we break the cycle.

[ Catra reads the reply and smiles. Empowering the people? Breaking the cycle? She doesn't really care about any of that. But their end goals aren't so different. She can work with this. ]

Finally. Music to my ears.

I was beginning to think everyone here was too much of a coward to do anything other than sit on their asses and do what mommy told them to do.

[batricide]

[ joke's on you, catra. he always does what his mommy tells him. ]

Its not cowardice to blend in. It's simple survival.
But we're already a known entity in at least some capacity. We can do a lot of good here.

[purrsistence]

[ Yes. Doing good. Absolutely. ]

I'm looking forward to working with you.
