Since I just bought a new chair...

You Are Sophisticated and Well Mannered

You're the type of person who can sit all day entertaining guests with witty banter. You believe in presenting yourself in the best light possible. You like to be seen as classy. You give a first impression of being upper class and even a bit snooty. And you're the first to admit you're a little guilty of that.You are an armchair critic. You can detect quality easily, and you want the best things you can find.

And what sort of deficiency would that be, precisely?

[have_no_mercy]

A Mercer communication deficiency. It's happened before.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

Actually, I'd like to think I've managed Mercer communication rather well. Certainly better than many before me.

[have_no_mercy]

And there are those who've done better.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

I think I can live with that.

[have_no_mercy]

Mediocrity? Major, I'm disappointed.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

I fail to see how increasing my Mercer communication skills would be overly beneficial at the moment.

[have_no_mercy]

So you're going to wait until it would be beneficial to work on it? That's not terribly proactive of you.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

It almost sounds as if you'd like me to work on it.

[have_no_mercy]

Perhaps, but there's something more pressing now: I may need to borrow your army, having told someone they were, well, mine.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

...What?

[have_no_mercy]

One of Oliver's silly little friends decided to claim Metropolis in the name of Egypt. Not happening, so I may need your army. It's not like they couldn't use the practice.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

Egypt? What are you talking about?

[have_no_mercy]

War, Major. Ready the troops! This man cannot be left to take what is rightfully mine! ... even if it isn't.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

What man? Who is he?

[have_no_mercy]

I don't know. Some whacked out Egypt supporter. Does it matter?

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

Yes. It does matter. You expect me to call out my troops to fight for something I know absolutely nothing about? We won't be exploited, Tess. You'd best start explaining.

[have_no_mercy]

I have explained. He wants to claim Metropolis for Egypt. And I mean really it's a totally Greek name so I don't even know how he's going to justify it, but it's not going to happen anyway, because I won't let him.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

Since when are you Metropolis' great defender? And since when are my soldiers something to be used whenever some threat against the city arises?

[have_no_mercy]

I live here. My headquarters are here. I will not so easily give it up for some yahoo's whim. As I said, I thought they could use the practice since they've been languishing for so long.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

This is hardly the first time 'some yahoo' has shown up with a threatening whim. You honestly believe he's going to take over Metropolis?

[have_no_mercy]

Well now, Major, if your skills at Mercer communication were better than mediocre, perhaps you'd already know if I were being serious or not.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

...

Well, you're just hysterical today, aren't you.

[have_no_mercy]

There is some yahoo threatening to claim Metropolis for Egypt and I did happen to mention I had an army, but I think if it really comes down to it we'll rock, paper, scissors for it.

[kneel-majorzod.livejournal.com]

My Mercer communication skills may be better than you think. I'm quite aware that, if it were a real threat against Metropolis, you'd have gone straight to Kal-El and told me absolutely nothing about any of it unless it became necessary. Which would be why I didn't 'ready the troops' at your call.

And you should know that your sense of humor appears to be seriously lacking as well.
