And dead ones make the least.

Sometimes I don't know which is worse.

It's more like the entire planet's populous screaming in your ear all at once, for a protracted period of time.

But, yeah, I guess you'd know, huh?

My homeworld popped like a fire-cracker when it was destroyed. Only there wasn't any noise. Everyone and everything was already dead.

What's the Valiant?

(deleted comment)

Interesting. Is that concern?

Must've been quite something insofar as ships go. You don't strike me as being easy to impress.

Oh, I see. Well, I'll hold off on that for the moment, if you don't mind. At least till I've got a better idea of you. Wouldn't want to overstep, after all.

Interesting name, Valiant.

Yes, it's quite the opposite of everything he stands for. Very intersting name indeed.

Why is it that you two always get into arguements whenever you're near each other? It'd be funny if I weren't so worried about getting caught in the crossfire.

Protecting the universe, annoying him, I dunno, call it instinct. I think the few times we actually agree are the strangest.

Oh, okay. If you say so.

Personally, I think on those days the devil must skate to work.

We like interrupting each other with snarky commentary. That's basically how we communicate now, since each of us think the other can't see reason.

Well isn't that a sad state of affairs?

I wonder if this is what it'd be like if one of my kind were still alive. I doubt it.

I know. I see it here *touches forehead* and feel it here *touches heart* But that's fine, at least you're honest about it.

Clever, I'd say. Not that I'd trust you any further than I could throw you, personally.

(deleted comment)

I'd know, though.

Yeah, I think he thinks you're going to try hurt me. Since I'm obviously completely defenceless.

Yeah, sure you can.

Sent her away? Where?

(deleted comment)

I'm sorry, not that I imagine that's much of a consolation.

What sort of methods have you tried? Maybe you're being blocked somehow. Could he do that, you think?

(deleted comment)

Hmm...that's strange.

Surely there are other ways? Non-Earth ways?

(deleted comment)

Oh, I see.

I was a prisoner of war for twenty years. The sole survivor of a dead planet, of an unknown species... my captors thought I'd make an interesting lab rat.

Sounds awfully selfish of him. But then again, perhaps you're just good company.

It's amazing what people are capable, given the right situation.
