>[Luck never lasts forever, Grif.]

That only worked because most of the people in the canyon were morons, not actual threats. Besides, luck doesn't last forever.

I got the impression the whole army was like that.

>[Where did you train then? O.o]
>[Just you and a couple other guys are that stupid.]

>[Just you and a couple other guys are that stupid.]

Just because they stuck you and a couple other morons out in the middle of nowhere doesn't mean everybody in the Red or Blue army is an idiot.

Somebody had to promote Sarge, Tex.

Somebody. Had to. Promote. Sarge.

>[Okay, point.]
>[Is that all the evidence you have?]
>[What do you know about the army? I thought you slept through Basic.]
>[He's not so bad.]

>[Is that all the evidence you have?]

Is that the best evidence you've got? Maybe they were hoping he'd wipe out all of the Blues by accident while keeping you morons busy.

Look, if we were all that stupid don't you think they'd have kicked us out of the army and stopped wasting money and equipment and food and crap?

I thought we were supposed to be fighting aliens anyway.

>[It's Command.]
>[You were. It got complicated.]
>[They just wanted to make you feel better.]
>[Did you want to fight aliens or something?]

>[You were. It got complicated.]

Yeah, you were. It got complicated. The whole 'trying to avoid extinction' thing, remember?

Just don't ask me why they let you guys keep fighting once things got that bad.

Because the army is stupid. See? It supports my theory!

>[You're just making this all up as you go along, aren't you?]
>[No it doesn't, you dumbass.]
>[No, they probably did have a reason for it.]
>[Well you're in the army, what's that make you?]

>[Well you're in the army, what's that make you?]

So if you're in the army, and the army is stupid...what's that make you?

[He points at himself with a thumb.] Drafted, yo. I didn't volunteer for this bullshit.

>[Doesn't change anything.]
>[That's the only sign of intelligence I've seen out of you.]
>[What, you wanted to let humanity get wiped out?]
>[Maybe the guys in charge were too. What then?]

>[Doesn't change anything.]

Like that changes anything. You were still in the army.

Okay lemme rephrase that: Anybody who wants to be in the army is an idiot.

>[You're an ass, Grif.]
>[So wanting to protect humanity makes you an idiot.]
>[Why am I still arguing with you about this?]
>[Change the subject.]

>[So wanting to protect humanity makes you an idiot.]

So wanting to protect humanity, and hold off the whole extinction thing, makes you an idiot.

A brave idiot.

I mean, I know there will always be other people who will do it so I don't have to. So why would I want to?

>[You're an ass, Grif.]
>[That makes sense. Sadly.]
>[So does that make you a cowardly idiot, or you going to say "I was drafted" again?]
>[And what if there aren't any?]

>[And what if there aren't any?]

So what if everybody who was brave got killed trying to look out for all the cowards, huh?

Well, then we're screwed. [shrug]

>[What, just like that?]
>[...]
>[What would you do?]
>[There's got to be something you would fight for.]

>[What, just like that?]

What, that's it? Just like that? Let aliens kill everybody?

Well, if all the people that can fight are dead what are the rest of us supposed to do?

>[This is why you need to learn to fight.]
>[Do something besides just roll over and die!]
>[Yeah, you're right, you probably couldn't even stop one alien if you tried.]
>[This is one of the reasons why you were in that canyon.]

>[Do something besides just roll over and die!]

..How about doing something? Get a gun! Hell, get a rock, hit one in the head!

How long do you seriously think that would last, Tex?

>[Okay, not very long.]
>[But at least you'd be doing something.]
>[This is why we need an army.]
>[I hate it when you make sense and are wrong at the same time.]

>[But at least you'd be doing something.]

It'd be doing something. Besides, would you rather die on your feet, or getting shot like a fish in a barrel?

We'd still die. What difference does it make anyway?

...This is really fucking depressing.

>[What is your problem?]
>[It doesn't matter to you?]
>[Yes. Yes it is.]
>[Only because of you.]

>[It doesn't matter to you?]

The whole thing with being what's left of our world and stuck on a meatship is depressing. You should be used to it by now.

So does going out fighting not matter to you?

Well it doesn't matter if you're dead, does it?
And besides. Just in case you didn't catch it? I didn't really like anybody from our world much.

>[Don't you have any pride?]
>[Maybe what you did could help somebody else.]
>[What about your family/your sister?]
>[What about Simmons?]

>[What about Simmons?]

What, you don't even miss Simmons? I thought you'd be bored without him to bug.
