[QUOTE="Agamon, post: 1460694, member: 184"] "It's not all as bad as you say, Sarah," Neutron says. "I mean, yeah, our lives are scrutinized, mine especially. If anyone has a gripe to pick with being put in the spotlight, it's me. Sure, we're treated like movie stars, or rock stars or athletes. The difference is, unlike the entertainers, we make a real difference in the world. Your job as a police officer, and our jobs in AF aren't much different, aside from the scale. Now don't get me wrong, the NYPD do a helluva job, and they don't have any elite powers to back them up, that's true heroics. But policework is best left to the baselines, your abilities allow you to accomplish so much more, on a much bigger magnitude, not to just protect your neighborhood, but the country or even the world." "Listen to you, Barry," Jersey Devil says with a grin. "You could sell those motivational tapes." Screaming Eagle smiles. "Don't try and guilt her into accepting, Neutron. This kind of life isn't for everyone." She looks to Sarah. "I will add your name, and you can consider it further if and when the time comes that you're accepted." [/QUOTE]
