[color=green][b][u]The Mini-RP Collection[/u][/b][/color] [color=white][b][u]#41: We Are Worthless[/u][/b][/color] [i]Taken from the comments of "We Are Worthless"[/i] ------------------ [b]Feya:[/b] *in Tongan* Is every single furry in Wildcat City that hard on themselves? [b]Nikita:[/b] *in Tongan* No no no... There are furries who are like us. [b]Feya:[/b] *in Tongan* Oh... We Tongans have a habit of seeing Wildcat City as way too strict. Perhaps, I feel ignorant for not studying about Wildcat City enough. But then again, I'm from Tonga, and I spend my time there more so than I do in America. [b]Nikita:[/b] *in Tongan* Tongan, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, American, what does it matter? We're still people; we need balanced lives. *The Avenger translates.* [b]Leo:[/b] *to Feya* No, I do not see you as being ignorant. Besides, we have got nothing on Kriegland; too many things that got you death there would only have gotten you jail time or a big fine here; i.e., fortune telling. Who's dumb enough to believe that anyway? [b]Feya:[/b] Oh, Kriegland... My people and I often ask how do people live there comfortably? [b]Malik:[/b] And people say the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is strict, even though we use the Koran (Quran) to define a set of written rules in our lives. [b]Yamazaki:[/b] I forgot to say that people who stress themselves out too much are at higher risk of doing crazy things. In Japan, when male furries push themselves too hard in school or at work, they would engage in cross-dressing. Cross-dressing furries are not seen as nuisances in Japan, but they do bother tourists, though. The tourists are glad to see none of that in my country no more. [b]Feya:[/b] I always thought about wanting to do that in Japan, because I thought it looked fun. But I can see the moral implications behind it, so I feel it's better for me not to do that. My people don't mind but thanks to tourism in our country, we understand why most people frown upon that act. [b]Leo:[/b] It got me in a whole lot of trouble and led me to endangering myself, but you know why, so I won't bother you with the details once more. [b]Feya:[/b] Yeah; I heard about that story where you accidentally got sucked in to some festival that involved you-know-what. I'm glad you're cooling down man. [b]Yamazaki:[/b] Either way, we should be ourselves and never engage in that sinful act anyways. [b]Zabulon:[/b] No one should be cross-dressing in the first place anyways. [b]Leo:[/b] It's just common sense, isn't it? [b]Zabulon:[/b] Of course. [b]Feya:[/b] In my country, cross-dressing is a modern tradition, believe it or not but it's not mandatory. Yes, we have such festivals where men would do that and sing karaoke while dancing. But the real reason behind our cross-dressing festival is to promote the art of motherhood so our families can have more children and learn the values of staying at home to have more children to help our country; especially during rough weather or hard times which we don't have much today thanks to modern technologies to make life easier where we are protected from harsh weather elements. [b]Zabulon:[/b] But Feya, aren't tourists doing to lose their cool in your country if they see that? [b]Feya:[/b] They usually ignore it and we do our best to explain it. Perhaps, I should go to my country and explain to my king about how the G-52s may frown upon these cross-dressing festivals of ours and how we need to find a better way to teach motherhood to children without cross-dressing. Its going to be hard but I don't want to suggest anything that may make our country too strict. Part of our morals is about having fun and enjoying life while being productive. [b]Zabulon:[/b] Maybe you should do that. Give it a try, but if it doesn't work out, it's all right. At least you tried. [b]Feya:[/b] Yes. Remember, we are a country of people, and we do have morals. But we Tongans don't want to be too hard on ourselves or too strict. To value family is to value life and part of valuing life is to have fun with it. [b]Chuong:[/b] Or how about this? The G-52s and the UN1024s who don't like cross-dressing should just avoid your country of Tonga. I think that would be the easier answer don't you think? Just saying. [b]Feya:[/b] But didn't the G-52s show up in the Ivory Coast when everybody there was twerking because it was their tradition or something like that? [b]Chuong:[/b] That's a little different. What they were doing was a modern spin on mapouka, which became twerking. And at one point, the Ivorian government wanted to ban twerking but instead made it way more popular than it is. That's different. Your country never had a problem with cross-dressers, but you and your people fear that tourists may see you guys as something else. [b]Feya:[/b] Let's just hope my country and I don't get condemned for allowing this. I'll just think of a better way to convince my people that there's a better way to teach motherhood without cross-dressing and that the solution should not involve making a law against cross-dressing but rather to educate people about motherhood and why that's important. [b]C.K./King Leo:[/b] Ultimately it's all about finding the happy medium. Too much strictness and harshness made us all dull and boring in the eyes of those hating us. On the flipside, our patience gets tested with all these crazy acts. [b]Feya:[/b] Let's see... Xavier is going to get the Brazilian furry soccer teams to twerk in Carnival over some screw ups in the last World Cup and I wished I was joking but he's dead serious. And the Opium Lords drugging male furries in targeted countries as part of their terrorism. Oh, and the stupid song known as "What does the fox say?". And you thought Bendraqi was bad in annoying furries. [b]Chuong:[/b] Well, here's the thing; the terrorists like to prod the G-52s to find their weakness buttons, whereas with Bendraqi, he just wants to flat out destroy this world. [b]Leo:[/b] It seems I have let them push the buttons too long, or I'm just over-defensive of the G-52 moral code, strict as it was. [b]Chuong:[/b] Those terrorists are smart, you know. Smart people will find a way. And when it comes to the battlefield, they will prod around until they can find a weakness. To me, I think you're a bit over-defensive of the G-52 moral code, and by my standards, they're way too strict. Well, I can't really judge that because I wasn't alive when the G-52s were formed. Richard, since you've been way around longer than I have, and since you're a general, what do you think of their moral codes? [b]Richard:[/b] Mixed feelings... I think the codes on paper sound great, but in practice, they seem to be taken too far. Leo, you may be older than me, but I have been in the US Army for a long time, so I have a lot of experience on the battlefield, more than most UN1024s like Chuong. From my experience, moral people do not preach their values out loud in public while telling others what to think, as it would be immoral, since you don't know that person well enough. Some people's morals could be to relax and have a good time while living a productive life, so their lives can be balanced. Morality is not always black and white. Many times as my philosophy professors have said before, morality could be a personal thing to follow. Take Mathias, Alpha, and Torben for example, since they're from Denmark. Their moral codes like Danes is to live a balanced life and relax after work. Of course, this can be interpreted to many things. So yes, morality is not black and white and other people can interpret it differently. That's why in the UN1024s, leadership is emphasized and we encourage members to be creative on their own in the battlefield. [b]Capuno:[/b] Sometimes, it's all about unconventional methods to succeed against a big adversary. Hence my enemies call me "Ghost Hawk" and "Crazy Filipino Hawk," because I don't use conventional methods on battle. Unconventional methods is all about creativity. We Filipinos are known to be relaxed and creative. I don't know what my people thinks since we're a diverse country but I personally think that too much rules can drive one insane and destroys creativity. Not that I agree with the extremist but just saying. I think you have a lot of room to expand and so does Wildcat City. [b]Yamazaki:[/b] And in Japan, when male furries stress themselves out too much, they end up cross-dressing. We Japanese usually don't care but when that was going on, tourists would often complain about the act but we Japanese do nothing about it since as long it's not physically harming anyone, we don't care. [b]Leo:[/b] Then my biggest weakness has been making it black and white. [b]Super C:[/b] Looks like it was contagious because we all jumped on the bandwagon without conciously thinking about it. [b]Leo:[/b] And it's proof my influence is way too strong. An entire metropolis followed my example. If I didn't know better, I'd say I was hypnotized or the one hypnotizing them. [b]Cripto:[/b] I checked with my powers and there was no hypnosis; you're just genuinely someone everybody is flat-out afraid of because your voice is so big. Why did you want me to get rid of it, though? [b]Leo:[/b] No, I just wanted you to tone it down. In the end, the queen determined I must keep it the way it is because it should be seen as a gift, and many around the universe hail me as the greatest orator of all time. [b]Chuong:[/b] Just remember that you are not fascist; you just need to be careful of how you exercise your powers since they may turn against you. [b]Leo:[/b] Indeed.
