Wow, she's pretty emo... and feisty...

Do you think we could recruit her?

It would be awesome to recruit her, but I think she's pretty happy where she is ;)

I liked it, it reminded me of Ayn Rand (http://www.iep.utm.edu/r/rand.htm#H2) and her ethical theory on the virtue of selfishness. There's a fantasy book on a somewhat similar subject, if anyone would be interested. To feel strongly about something, or to be emotional 'emo' doesn't have to be a negative thing. If you were apathetic towards everything you'd be quite the sorry wretch, at least in my opinion. If you don't agree with something feel free to say so, but don't toss out the word emo like that.

Ahah! Another Atlas Shrugged reader!

That one was truly epic.

My would-be wife suggested I read it.

Sadly, I've just woken up and I haven't eaten, so I'm not going to discuss it here just yet... but maybe later in-game!
