Yes he is.

[He listens to it, gives Pagan a moment.] What are your thoughts?

I thought it would make me angry. Or defensive.

Mostly?

I hate his voice. Not his words.
ukan: (attentive)

Do you agree with his words?
crab_rangoon: (one second)

[A sigh.] Well, he's not wrong. It's an exaggeration, but - it was the truth.

The essence of it. I did control the only airport in the country and the planes did contain drugs.

What would you want him to say about you now?
crab_rangoon: (walking and thinking)

[personal profile] crab_rangoon 2021-11-02 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
I -

[He pauses.]

The same thing. The truth. In his stupid, fucking unfunny way.

The truth is going to change when you go home.
crab_rangoon: (tell me more)

[personal profile] crab_rangoon 2021-11-02 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. But I don't want to start up my propaganda machine. Not the way it was before.

What will you have them say instead when you get home? The first day.
crab_rangoon: (So sophisticated)

[personal profile] crab_rangoon 2021-11-02 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
The first day?

That I survived a fucking helicopter crash. Maybe I really am a god.

And then? The end of Sabal and Amita. And then the opening of the airport. Appointing of advisors, foreign and domestic. Beginning of elections. Trials.

Work.

Do you have lists of candidates for those roles? It might take a decade or so before the people are able to adjust to elections.

Yes. I have a few names. The rest I will get from references.

All right.

I'm proud of you. I don't know what the Admiral's version of your graduation is, but you're doing the right thing for your own reasons.
crab_rangoon: (oh shit i fucked up)

[personal profile] crab_rangoon 2021-11-02 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Lark.

I know I have a fucking lot of work ahead of me. More than I've ever had to think about in my life if I do this.

[Pagan hesitates for a long, long moment.]

But I - if the Admiral doesn't let Lakshmana live, if it's too goddamn complicated for his stupid, fucking life right now, then use it for Ishwari? Give her more time with Ajay. And let him meet me when I'm not - like I was.

All right. I'll do my best to word it in a way that won't be complicated for him. Or for you.
