Red Fish, Blue Fish

[Iris Faust]

Iris' breathing is very shallow and she wimpers but she nods.
"I'm fine," she looks into his eyes as her arms come around his neck again and lightly kisses his lips. "Joukahainen..."

[Dinari Dollar]

"Hello Peron and soldier guy. I'm Dinari Dollar."
Dinari says giving them both a doofy smile.

[John Peron]

"Hola, Señor Dolar. Mi llamo Colonel Juan Domingo Peron." he said, extending a hand to shake.

(Note: While his name is John, the Spanish pronunciation of it is Juan.)

[Sgt. Marbo]

Marbo noticed another officer approach and their greetings. So he stood down for the moment, silently giving himself the stand-at ease command.

[Lady Blue]

I notice that the sergeant seems unfomfortable. "Sergeant, you have permission to stand at ease and speak freely. We're not on base and if you have any ideas on how to get us out of this nutsty situation I want to hear them."

[Sakari Lehtinen]

Sakari is worried about her current mindset, but decides that she won't listen to him anyways.

Nevertheless, I have to say something.

"The ability to care can be muzzled by many different factors, and most people are incapable of caring about those who aren't in their immediate circle of family and friends. It can be seen as both a glaring weakness of character, or simple ignorance. They hold sympathy to those whom they feel are worthy of it, but the government, and all governments, have stilted the view of who's worthy of sympathy and who's not." Sakari replies.

[Dinari Dollar]

"I don't get all of these military people and why they have to be so formal. Hey, as long as we're in Helsinki we should visit the socialists, you know, to show them that we're back..."

Dinari hates the socialists and wants to show them that not only has he returned from Siberia, the capitalists are reorganizing.

[Lady Blue]

"Well we could do that. I wouldn't mind seeing them again." I think I've only met Bassarov once, briefly, whilst I was still my uncle's assistant under Kolov's command.

[Sgt. Marbo]

"If I may ask, what situation would that be?"

[Lady Blue]

"We've had our legs chopped off, so to speak. Red Infinity has cut off all our assets in this country and most overseas, and terrorists damaged the USS Iowa, our only real offensive weapon. And of course old Kolov made sure we'll never get back on our feet properly..."

[Victoria]

"I agree that government stifles individual growth. That is why it is up to the heroic few who have refused to become cows to save everyone else."

I move onto my side. The room is cold so I pull a blanket over us.

"If I had the power to over throw the government and all government I would. But it is too much of a risk. I can personally gain more by working for Red Infinity than by rebeling against it. Someday when someone with nothing to lose stands against it, I can be a happy woman, but until then, I'm not about to make any waves. I have a good deal. My work is exciting. I have a boyfriend who is always on the news. I really admire him, you know. I watch him on TV whenever I can."

I wrap my legs around his.

"Tell me about yourself."

[John Peron]

"Bien, hasta que el infinito rojo es apartado, pienso que tenemos cosas más importantes a hacer que tirar encima de los que deseen la misma cosa que deseamos. General Franco nunca fue a buscar a enemigos, ni unos ni otros hizo Mussolini. Si debemos tener éxito siempre en este mundo, la cosa pasada que necesitaremos es el mundo contra nosotros. Debemos echar a un lado con los socialistas hasta que se va el infinito rojo. Después de la, podemos atacarlos toda lo que deseamos... por lo menos, que es mi opinión." Peron said in an almost fatherly tone.

Translation: Well, until Red Infinity is out of the way, I think we have more important things to do than shoot up those who want the same thing we want. General Franco never went looking for enemies, neither did Mussolini. If we are to ever succeed in this world, the last thing we will need is the world against us. We should side with the Socialists until Red Infinity is gone. After that, we can attack them all we want... at least, that's my opinion.

[Valkoinen Joki]

I sigh and get up, I look at krupskaya and frown slightly. "is there something you wanted?"

My voice isnt bitter but rather, somewhat sad. I wanted to go and talk to sayuka... but I knew I couldnt without asking if I was needed, or else I'd be considered turning

[Joukahainen]

I smile, and kiss her again. But this time, it's a deep, passionate kiss, which is full of emotion at the very fact that she actually knew, and said my full name.

"Good..." I slowly begin to move back and forth, keeping my gaze locked into her eyes. My arms embrace her loosely but lovingly, and my kisses move down the side of her face, and I lick circles around the outer and inner parts of her ear, nibbling playfully and sensuously.

I breath heavily onto her neck, and ear.

[Lady Blue]

"I tend to agree with you Juan. WHEN we win back a part of the world, if not the whole thing, we'll deal with them according to how they treat us."
