Leo doesn't care about science, or discovery, or literally anything academic. He has his own gifts, though. A good strategist. Adequate with people in a way I'm not and don't care to be. [Rodney's already reached 'honest opinions about my brothers instead of bluster' status. that's what comes from letting a teenager use ur shit]

Noted RE: your injuries. May I ask what was worth the risk in Dogtown?

[energyfieldgood]

Noted. I know the type.

It started out as a fairly routine recon mission. Then we encountered a series of unfortunate events including ghost bullets, madness-inducing birds and spider bridges that forced us to move forward and deeper into the place. We found a strange building on the other side of the blood river - addendum, there is a blood river - that we wanted to investigate but couldn't reach it.

[Matches up to the descriptions in that post by 'Pegasus' that Donnie had creeped on but hadn't replied to. So no lying, though there is some downplay.

Spider hand. Yeugh.]

A shame

I'm not one for blind exploration so I'll take your word for it, Doctor

[energyfieldgood]

It wasn't exactly a BLIND exploration?

[It was totally a blind exploration.]

I would have preferred more detailed planning from my end but I had an obligation to keep my less prudent teammate from diving head first into doom.

[semilethal]

Dr. McKay, sometimes you just have to let a fool face doom
They won't learn anything if you keep diving in to save them

[Talking like he's constantly pulling his brothers out of the fire when it is at best like forty percent of the time and the other sixty he is being saved himself]

[energyfieldgood]

I hear you, I hear you.
But strange as it may be, I happen to be somewhat fond of this particular fool.
Which comes with certain responsibilities.
They'd be lost without me. [d e b a t a b l e]

You know. The hard lot of being the resident genius.

[semilethal]

Gratitude is in short supply, but we are morally obligated to share our gifts. I understand completely

[energyfieldgood]

See, you GET it.
Let me guess, it's all fun and games until imminent catastrophic failure and then they all look to you and yell for you to magically fix the impossible.

[semilethal]

It's as if you've lived my life!

"Donnie what does this do?" "Did you read the manual I gave you?" "What manual?"

I don't know why I bother
