Backburner

Good evening. You've heard of me, and if you can guess who I am by the completion of this post, then you deserve a cookie. Perhaps several.

The Diplomat and the Head have been quarreling, which is unusual. The Brute has remained strangely silent. Likely he will find a way to aggravate the situation soon, which is understandable, given his nature. He was unfortunately never given much good will towards his fellow man. Brilliant though. If one cannot like him, one must at least admire him. The Head as well, in his own way.

Yes, the Head will not like the content of this post, but my status marks me as exempt from his rules, should he like it or not. Likely the Cynic will be thrilled. He has not been given much free rein since his own post.

The Diplomat is an interesting case. The polar opposite of myself. Where I am reserved he is brazen. Where I catalogue he applies. He doesn't seem to enjoy our equal status. Resentment, so on so forth. When power meets power incidents occur. We all remember the days when the Head and the Brute hadn't established their truce. There used to be more of us.

Hmm, here I am lost in my own thoughts again. Hardly "diplomatic". Likely setting the Head's plans back significantly, if he has one. Which he almost certainly doesn't.

Things are moving forward and deaths will likely occur. The Head will want expansion and the Brute will want conquest.

Have you guessed yet?
