"Greeeen?! Greeeeeen? How dare you! How dare it! That is my business!"
"Ah, actually, as the ruler, as your husband, that is my business! Besides, green is a good color, what do you have against green?" He tried to side step her fury.
"Stick to one thing at a time, shall we? Freezing me that way, no no - that is not allowed." She warned.
"Don't screw your face up like that, you're too pretty," He blew a kiss, smiling, like a mischievous boy.
"It's my face, I'll do what I want with it! Hear what I said about the freezing?"
"Aaah, come on, didn't hurt, did it?"
"Can I freeze you? Stop you from all sound and action?"
"Of course not, only works on women, the inventor never made it to work on a man." Again, the grinning.
"So you can freeze me, any time you wish?"
"Let's not waste time on that, can we move on to other matters?"
"Oh yes, let's do - I want a divorce! A dissolving of this marriage immediately! Think I'll even consider being married to a man who is not man enough to let a woman have her say before she is frozen into silence?! You coward!"
Caesar stood, face burning, he looked to Moses, about to have her frozen again, when her words hit him, calling him a coward. He turned back to her, eyes blazing at her while she stood her ground, "Well - go on, freeze me again, emperor - after all, it's the only way you'll win!"
"This is not a contest! I did not freeze you to silence you, it was the only way Moses could check you over without conflict, I would never do such a thing! Look at'im, you've upset him, aaaah, he's covering his eyes."
Trying to soothe her, Moses big finger went to stroke her arm. "Don't - touch me! YOU froze me, bad robot, bad bad robot, you're never to do that again, even if he tells you to!" She scolded the droid. Turning back to the man before her, she
wondered if she should believe him, and decided not, "And you, I bet you use it all the time. Either case, let me get my demands in before you are tempted once more-"
"I would not do such a thing, all who know me, know that my word is sound!"
"I sir, do not know you, your word means nawt to me! I want the return of myself and my people to
our home. There is only so much of this cold steel, glass and metal world I can take. No grass! No trees or forest! Hills, mountains, streams - where? How can you even breathe in such a place?"
"This climate is perfect, scientifically mixed to assure humankind dwelling here-..."
"There is no such thing as perfection that comes from imperfect men! God is the only one who can do the perfect mix, all of which was ruined by men and their greed and need to control other men -or women-, stealing their lands and resources for their own selfish needs! It is obvious that has not changed. You are proving that to be still the case! I want to see my people, and where is my brother - I want to see him now!"
"Ah, your brother, one can only wonder why he did not explain all that I have to you, he is older, he would know." Caesar lifted his wrist, talking into the device, "My empress wishes to see her brother, please bring him to our social quarters, we have much to discuss." Looking into his wife's eyes, "Come, he will be here shortly, the hour is wasting, we still have a ceremony to attend." He led the way.

Mercy, as always you did a stellar job on both scene and story as both work together to draw the viewer in. It's still amazing to me how you adapted to this sci-fi style for this series, and I love the characters involved. The way you have them setup and thier expressions makes me really believe their real.
mikeerson
You're really into this girl - lol... ordering around the man and being calm with the man.... ain't it funny when you get into these confrontations you've got to see the story through both characters eyes? - I think that is one of the greatest gifts an artist has is being able to see what's going on and what is the best approadh... we're only human, we make mistakes, but it's a great tool to be able to see from other's points of view.... Last story was sexy, caught my attention... this one, you've got a voice that wants to be heard, that caught my attention.
