"We've only been in there for fifteen minutes, but still. May I have some, please?"

19772
"But it sounds so cooool!"

19774
Melodia nods eagerly.

19775
"It also sounds totally awesome."

((No comment on Big Daddy talking))
((....maybe because nobody else knows that Big Daddies aren't supposed to talk? It's not like anyone except Alan could possibly know. To half these people, Bioshock doesn't even exist.))

"Oooooh, that sounds like a good idea."

19778
Mio smiles.
"It certainly smells like it. When did you find the time to make this?"

19779
Melodia shrugs.
"Eh."

19780
Mio heads over to the smell of cake.

gret suces

"Always well-prepared, aren't you?"

19783
Mio nods.
"Again, if you feel there's anything wrong that you need to vent, please talk to me. I'm always willing to oblige.

I'm going to go leave you alone now. See you later, Chryssa."

With that, she walks out.

"I know it's impossible, but you must try. If nothing else, you will be all the stronger for your self-control, both in battle and out of it, and people will be more willing to rally around a leader who can handle the stresses of their flock.

You put forth that notion, now enforce it. If they will not come to you, then come to them. Then they have no excuse for continuing their actions.

And finally, as I have said multiple times, I am no leader, I am merely a follower. I would be unable to handle the position. I couldn't with my own comrades, I can't with people I barely know. Garnt himself put it best. I lack the ability to unite people around me, and I lack the skill to lead in battle. All I possess is the ability to stop conflict, and even there I have failed."

"And you thought I wouldn't have contested him? I'm going to contest him. I was occupied at the time, and I was unable to every other time. Moreover, you decided to attack him first. If it was your last resort, the first action should have been to understand why he's doing it and get him to apologise- precisely the actions in such a situation YOU advocated, and why I stood by you initially.

His insults may be false, but the criticisms he brings up are not. You promised to stop the infighting by handling it yourself, and yet we've had infighting, and myself, Garnt and others had to arbitrate in your place. You promised to act as our strong leader, and yet we have people demanding I take over against my protests because they view anyone to be stronger than you, even those clearly unready for it. You insisted we move past our petty disagreements and what you did was attack someone over a petty disagreement instead of, as you stated, sitting down and talking to them about it in a civil manner.

Chryssa, thus far, you haven't fulfilled your promises as a leader. The actions you have taken in the course of leading thus far have been ineffectual or not the kind a true leader would take. There. I mean no malice, I mean no harm, I only mean to tell you why others would view your leadership as sub-par. Am I understood?"
