I’m just waiting the for holiday where we all get smashed and no one can save the world. Hard to beat that kind of fun. 

At least Kingsman celebration style is a thing.

[vongaul]

At least the holidays here are hard to forget. 

[vongaul]

I think it’s entirely possible I may have been blind-sided that day and caught a reflection of someone else’s glimmer. Who knows. Guess you’ll have to work extra hard.

I wouldn’t be here if you didn’t see something in me. I know you like me Percy. You’re like the posh uncle I never had!

[vongaul]

Perhaps it comes with the job title. Or perhaps families such as ours are only used to big, empty houses.

Sounding more and more like my father, darling.

[vongaul]

It was really more of a metaphor than anything. 

Haha so am I your pup, then?

[vongaul]

I know! Makes me feel great about not living here all the time, and almost makes me want to go on an assignment, just to get out of here. 

I’ll have to agree with you there. I usually walk around without seeing anyone, and now I can’t turn a corner without bumping into someone. 

[vongaul]

If that’s what you want to call it.. I imagine it more of  a dog/owner type deal between all kingsman and all recruits. 

Oh come on Perc, you love us

[vongaul]

It’s amazing how small this place starts to feel when the applicants are here.

I agree with you. That little bit of humanity is what keeps us from being a lot worse than we have to be. 

I suppose that’s what makes remembering why you’re here is so important. Because I believe that’s the difference, that’s the line. Especially since right and wrong is so subjective. Perhaps, but I think it’s reflective, and that’s usually a good thing to do from time to time. 

[vongaul]

Of course I’ve thought about that. There are men out there just as devoted to killing us as we are to them. How are we supposed to separate the line between us? It’s ambiguous. No one can really make the distinction, because it’s impossible for one to be objective. It’s hard to grasp. Sometimes I think it’s just better to not think about at all. 

Oh does it? Does it come with time or a prerequisite? Most antagonist are the protagonist in their story regardless of morality. It’s rare the bad guys think they’re the bad guys. Have you ever thought about it…you know from the other persons perspective?

[vongaul]

Just a little bit of that Percival-wisdom for you to indulge in. Just, comes with the job. Something goes wrong and you begin questioning the concept of morality before you’ve even had breakfast. It happens. Life goes on. 

That’s true and a blanket answer, but an answer. I know everyone’s got their different personal reasons. But some people stress more parts of it then others. I was just curious. That is perhaps one of the truest statements I’ve ever heard, particularly the think bit of it. 

[vongaul]

Some personal reasons. I mean, that’s what everyone joined for, right? Self-betterment, for king and country, dignity. You could ask anyone and they’d give you different reasons, but it all comes down to some personal commitment. You don’t risk your life unless you think you’re the good guy. 

That’s good to know, it keeps me on my A game. Oh really? If you don’t mind me asking, what are you here for then? Or I guess rather what brought you here?

[vongaul]

Hey, I think everyone here finds the tech one of the best aspects of the job. Can’t say it’s what I’m here for, but sure keeps me here. 

You’re welcome I’m proud of how they turn out. Not to mention I find them fun to use personally. Sounds like you two are on wonderful terms. It’s always interesting. Mostly dependent moods though.

[vongaul]

Well, I’ll have to thank you for that. I quite, quite enjoy these ‘fancy gadgets’ that are supplied here. That sounds socially optimal, though I can only imagine how talking to Merlin might be. Even on his best days, he’s a right piece of work. 

Yes…I was his protege. I’m a technician I created and built most of those fancy gadgets you use. No, I mostly only have to talk to Merlin perhaps Arthur on occasion.
