Teenage Wasteland

[Ophelia]

"What's father's line? Waste not want not?" Ophelia said as she crossed her arms and looked at him. "He's more than likely useless... to the Alliance. And to us as a source, but... there are other ways he could be useful." she gave Ian a look. "Of course, father did say to extract something useful from him... but he didn't say how." she tapped Ian's forehead. "There's ways of getting intel out of the meat without the man."

"And maybe one day father will teach it to us." He paused in thought, "Now here's something to consider: what if he is teaching it to us now? He did say to use techniques we haven't used before."

"Or... I keep him around as a... study aide." Ophelia said with a grin. "We don't kill him all the way... practice dummy if you will."

[Ian]

"Won't stop you sis, but my fun with him has concluded."
