... To call you by any other name coming to mind at this very moment would infect my mouth with wickedness, so I will say this: I hold much dislike for you, Ophelia. Much dislike.

Huh. Interesting name.

I'm Pilot Abilene.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Your name is interesting as well, Pilot Abilene.

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's true. But at least everyone remembers me, even though they always think I fly planes or something.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

What would your name have to do with planes?

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

A pilot is someone who flies a plane. I'm a war veteran too, so they always think I was in the air force.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

You're a soldier then?

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

Not anymore. I was sent home after taking a grenade to the face.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

What is a grenade if I may ask?

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

Uh...it's a little oval-shaped thing that you throw at your enemies. It explodes and blows them into little bits.

Luckily I was far enough away not to be killed.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

... Oh.

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it ain't very nice. But war ain't nice, either.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

No, it isn't. Where I am from we use swords and arrows and rams or catapults.

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

...wow. We got like, nukes and tanks. That's big exploding things and things on wheels that shoot big exploding things.

I don't like it.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

It doesn't sound very pleasant at all, Pilot Abilene. I apologize I did not mean for such a somber course of conversation.

[do-you-bleed.livejournal.com]

Nah, it's alright man. I'm used to it.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Well.. I hope that you do not have to encounter such circumstances again.
