| *Knocking of the door?* OOC hey...question. since they all know hannibal is such a problem, what, other than the fact he'd be punished for it, is stopping Hector from, the moment the door opens, blamming hannibal in the face? | |

| Hannibal: Enter.
OOC: Um....the punishment would most likely be either life imprisonment or the death penalty for the murder of a superior officer for one. That and there's an entire political faction within the Protectorate of which Hannibal is basically the grandfather/father. Killing him would turn him into a martyr and things would get worse from there even if it did give good people the chance they needed to act. | |

| Hannibal: No, but they're the military arm and this is a military matter. You know what they did at Shaunxi, Captain. I doubt a few thousand dead Humans, civilians and soldiers alike, will move the Council. I'm sure the threat of nuclear weapons will placate them. | |

| Hannibal: The Council doesn't have the guts. The Asari and Salarians will veto any Turian attempts to use such weapons. Frankly, if there is another way to convince them I don't see it. | |

| Hannibal: Insurance. Using nuclear weapons is one thing, but assassination of a rival political figure is another.
OOC: Does this sound like what TV Tropes refers to as "Insane Troll Logic"? If so...good....Shows just how insane Hannibal is.... | |
