This is the new thread. Stand up and admit.

"Well... I'm not exactly apolitical. I'm a Republican, and I don't exactly believe in protesting. If you have a problem with the way things are going you write to your congressman." I state.

"Just take a seat then. This is Tom and Selja, and my friend Sakari is in the bedroom napping." Cambridge says to Hope as sie leads her into the living room.

(I wasn't paying attention with that post that just got discarded...)
I am setting up the next video and debating weather to start some popcorn or not when we hear a knock at the door. "Well hello." I say to Hope as she walks in.

I nod my head.
"I understand. Are we taking the same machine?" I ask.

Damek decides that it is best not to discuss politics, since she is on the near opposite end of beliefs.
"I just want people to be free." He says and leaves it at that.
He follows after her.
"It isn't like I leech off of society. I do work during the summer time. I work at a fudge factory in Frankenmuth Michigan. It's kind of lame, but it gets me enough money to travel around and stuff."

"Oh, you are friends with Sakari! Wonderful! And he lives here! I was hoping to see him again." I say with enthusiasm. Ah, Sakari was so much fun. If only I wasn't so attached to Calithin.

"Yeah, I know Sakari." Cambridge replies and raises hir eyebrow. Sie hopes that this isn't some girl that has been or is involved with him.
Sie decides to ignore it for now.
"So what do you want to talk about?"

"No. We'll be taking a commercial flight, since like I said I'm buying an airplane and it'd be difficult at best to fly two planes back to Minot at once." We get in a car and drive to the residential district. I am looking for a certain apartment, and it's taking awhile since they all look so damn similar.

"Revolution. I am worried about revolution. I am afraid that if revolution actually happened something might end up going wrong and we would have a terrible Soviet dictatorship type government on our hands. I wanted to hear your thoughts on revolution." I reply.
I sit down near Tom and keep an eye out for Sakari.

"Well if you're working I'm not really too wrorried about your politics. It's these apolitical leeches that suck on the welfare system that piss me off. They produce nothing, and live off money that's supposed to go to people who can't work."

I roll my eyes in my mind when Hope gets excited about Sakari, I just don't understand what it is about him. But I put it aside since really it doesn't matter. "So does anyone want popcorn? We were about to watch a dramatization about the life of Marx." I say.
"Yeah that is a real concern. That's why we're trying to spread that same message to our fellow socialists, so they don't instigate a revolution prematurely." I explain.

"Ah, I suppose it would..." I reply, somewhat stupidly. I look out the window as we drive, resting my chin on my hand. I guess there's a lot on my mind, though nothing I'm too comfortable sharing with Rei.
"What are you buying might I ask?"

Damek just shrugs. "I have never met someone leeching off the system. I wouldn't know much about that." They keep on walking. "It can be hard. My mother was on welfare. I remember using food stamps. But her English wasn't good. It was hard for her to find a job. So she worked minimum wage."
"I was born in the Czech Republic."

"A 747-400 cargo conversion. Yes it's a little on the large side and it does use a lot of fuel, but it can get us anywhere in the world in less than 24 hours and can carry any equipment that we could conceviably need." I explain. "We'll likely improve on the bunks onboard so we can sleep onboard when we're abroad and save on hotel fares."
