Need a thread with Don, but don't have a post for it and don't feel like starting one? Stick it here. Please note date, time of day, location, and any relevant circumstances.

Most here are human-shaped, and powerful. I don't think it may be a sampling but...

[A thought dawns into her. She remembers the Commandant's accidental word to describe Luceti.]

...Maybe there are more humans, baseline ones, in the other "regions".

[Don gives this due consideration: the idea of multiple enclosures, each biased towards different kinds of people. Sample populations...]

Daisy, I think we're starting to give the Malnosso too much credit.

[Her head tilts upwards.]

It's usually dangerous to underestimate an enemy. What do you mean, sir?

[He sighs, giving up the train of thought.]

Look, it doesn't really matter. There's nothing we can do to or about the Malnosso, so our estimate of them is irrelevant.

[daisy023]

...Understood.

[Unfortunately, he is right. She sits.]

There's just so much I'd like to know... I hate being kept in the dark.

[Daisy-023 turns to him, with a look of curiosity. She had never imagined she'd have a talk like this with a xenotype. Guess this place opened minds, after all...]

Thank you for your ideas, sir... Sorry I went on with my paranoia.

It's all right. [He smiles a little.] After being here so long, sometimes I need to be reminded to keep fighting back.
