Goodnight Sweet Prince

Jacqueline Elizabeth Raleigh; 16; Erudite Transfer ________ There has to be something more than k n o w l e d g e Something greater than f e a r. Something that courses through her veins and makes her a soldier despite the odds stacked against her.

"One of the best, if I do say so myself."

[battlexscarred]

                " What would ya say if I asked for one? Since yer one o' the best. "

You really sure that it won’t be yours?  Because that’s how I see it going.

[battlexscarred]

        " Positive. How could I possibly give you the satisfaction of winning? " 

[alexandria-komarov]

"I give people tattoos. I don’t always get them for myself."

[battlexscarred]

                  " Ya any good? "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

Why do you ask?  You not up for it here?  Should I just call you a coward and then have you not waste my time?

[battlexscarred]

         " If only darlin'. I just don't want to explain ta the trainers, 'r hell the janitorial staff why they gotta wash your blood off the ground. "

[steel-nerva]

     “A valid question. The favorite pastime seems to be acting            like entitled assholes. Not exactly my brand of fun….”

[battlexscarred]

     "Thank the heavens, someone sane is here too. Don't they get tired o'                 bein' asshats all the time? It gets old f a s t. "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

Pin me down in a way I can’t easily get out of.

[battlexscarred]

       " Here? " A hint of a smirk crept over her features, as she tilted her head. "Or d'ya wanna go to th' trainin' room and get down and fuckin' dirty? "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

The trainers seem to be doing pretty well with me, considering that I’m one of the few of the transfers ranked above the line.  As for a training partner, you’d have to prove to me that you’re even good enough to be thought of as one, starting now.

And I assure you that I won’t stop being an ass.  I kind of like it.

[battlexscarred]

        " That doesn't seem too hard, unless you're askin' me ta do something totally insane ta prove myself. Name your challenge. "

        " I wish that was surprising to me. "

[desensitized-de-santo]

     “ I’m not last—— ”

[battlexscarred]

             " Congrats, I think. "

[luke-pelletier-deactivated20141]

"I would assume just about anything you’d need in Dauntless. You’ll find most things of interest in or around the pit. Tattoos, entertainment…entry to the dining hall and dormitories. not sure what else to tell you."

[battlexscarred]

" How the fuck do I find that? I mean, sorry. This is still all kinda surreal, and fuck you've gotta better things ta do than help the lost kid find 'er way around. "

[alexandria-komarov]

"Get tattoos. Or other shit. I don’t know."

[battlexscarred]

" I take it tha's what you do? "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

Well then fine.  State your case as to why it’d be beneficial to both of us to have an alliance.

[battlexscarred]

         "Maybe ya'd be less of an ass. There's a start, but no, who here do you really like? Wouldn't it be great to have someone who does more than just take yer shit? And you'll get a real training partner, besides the god damn trainers, who have how many of us to deal with? "

[battlexscarred]

" The fuck do people even do for fun here? "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

Because it makes you think that a) I want friends, b) I need an ally when at the moment I’m pretty sure the only ones I need are the trainers, which you are not, and c) that I’m approachable.  

[battlexscarred]

          " It really doesn't make me think ya want friends. Honest, this ain't gonna make anyone think you want friends. Allies are always important, think endgame, not tomorrow, but when all o' this is over, there's someone who doesn't hate you. "

[luke-pelletier-deactivated20141]

'If you're talking in terms of training you're going to have to find Aidan, Chris, or Rylie. Otherwise I can probably help. What do you need, initiate?”

[battlexscarred]

          " I'll uh, keep that in mind. 'm not a hundred percent sure I know what 'm lookin' for though. What th' 'ell's even here? "

[jace-dicamillo-deactivated20140]

Why the fuck would I be helpful to my competition?

[battlexscarred]

        " B'cause sometimes its nice ta have friends. Or allies. You win more wars that way. 'nd 'm askin' how ta find food not ta fuckin' train. How does that hurt ya? "

[battlexscarred]

          " I can't even pretend I know where 'm going, so if you could be a little helpful, it would mean a lot. "
