Floyd | You lift an eyebrow. "What about that line of kings?"

Floyd | "The Priory's old enough that they could actually notice who had it
Floyd | then. It's pretty likely that at least some of them had the talent."

inky says (to Floyd), "ask chatarras about priory of sion"
Floyd | "This is the first I've heard of the Priory being an actual
Floyd | organization. What are we up against?"
Floyd |
Floyd | "They're rather more... traditional than either of our groups. That
Floyd | makes them a bit more dangerous, but it also means they have trouble
Floyd | keeping information flowing properly. That's what's giving us our
Floyd | window to strike."

Gunther says, "chatarras sure chats 'ar ass off"
Fang says (to Floyd), "ask chatarras what jesus whould do"

Gunther says (to Floyd), "ask about holy grail"

inky says (to Floyd), "ask chatarras about saint"
Floyd | "How do you know Saint?"
Floyd |
Floyd | "I am Saint."
Floyd |
Floyd | "Er." You look at Saint.
Floyd |
Floyd | Saint shakes his head. "The name 'Saint' is a job title. We're the
Floyd | students' liaison to Higher Powers. So we cross paths occasionally,
Floyd | typically when our charges get in one another's way. Except you four
Floyd | were better than most at hiding it."

inky says, "hmm, now I am confused more"
Fang says (to Floyd), "ask chatarras about higher powers"
Floyd | [powers -> power]
Floyd | "Can you tell me more about this talent of Bian's?"
Floyd |
Floyd | "It's hereditary. It's supposed to make one the perfect leader. The
Floyd | Priory of Sion has been trying for centuries to restore the bloodline
Floyd | with the Voice of Command to the throne that was taken from it. In our
Floyd | investigations--"
Floyd |
Floyd | He is cut off as Janet explodes. "Our ancient rivals are trying to put
Floyd | a nineteen-year old Vietnamese-American girl onto the nonexistent
Floyd | throne of France?"
Floyd |
Floyd | Chatarras looks at her with quiet amusement. "How much stranger is that
Floyd | than half the stuff you've been shutting down on this campus?"
Floyd |
Floyd | "Point. But still. You'd think they'd have been shut down ages ago."
Floyd |
Floyd | "In any event, with the research we've been doing with Bian, it seems
Floyd | that this talent involves the ability to give short commands that will
Floyd | nearly always be obeyed. With more subtle applications, one can implant
Floyd | false memories or instill specific belief systems. We're still working
Floyd | out the applications, as well as how easily they can be mechanically
Floyd | duplicated or neutralized."

McMartin says (to Gunther), "Yeah, it was a talent Kzinti diplomats picked up to get noisy humans to STFU"
schep finally catches up
Fang says (to McMartin), "Huh, I thought Dune"
