There is--it's called the internet.

[notavirtue]

[Pause.]

You mean the extranet.

[huge_egomd]

If that's what I meant, that's what I would've said. But I didn't, so I didn't.

[notavirtue]

Perhaps they are the same thing. English is a nonsensical language. If you are able to access... explicit material on the internet, it is likely the same as the extranet.

[huge_egomd]

[You aliens--always have to have a different name for things.]

If by explicit you mean explicitly pornographic, then yes, I suspect both nets are the same.

I am now curious, though, as to how you know there's explicit material on the extranet. Do a little surfing there, Javik?

[notavirtue]

[That's what the humans called it!!]

After spending fifty thousand years in stasis, I found there was much to research about how the galaxy had changed. It was not intentional, and often hard to avoid.

[Joker probably thought it was hilarious to have EDI shut off the 'safe search' function. Holy high quality asari pinups, batman.]

[huge_egomd]

[Yeah, well...those humans had obviously been spending too much time with aliens.]

Dude, every sixteen year old who's gotten caught watching porn has used that excuse...minus the fifty thousand years in stasis part.

[You may not have gone looking for it, but admit it--you didn't exactly hit the back button the moment you saw those pinups.]

[notavirtue]

[When did he claim to hit the back button? Research, House, it was called research.]

It is not an excuse, it is a reason. You asked how I knew such things existed, and I answered.

[huge_egomd]

[Of course, it is. Research is how House discovered porpoise porn.]

Sure, whatever. I just want to know one thing--how much had porn changed during those fifty thousand years?

[notavirtue]

[He hesitated before answering. There really wasn't... access to that sort of thing during his first Reaper war. They had each other, after all.]

I cannot say. However, there is a publication known as 'Fornax' that contains explicit material on alien races, for other aliens.

[In other words, it hasn't changed at all.]

[huge_egomd]

No matter the time or the species, there's always porn. I suppose there's something reassuring in that. Pathetic, possibly, but reassuring.

[notavirtue]

It is reassuring that most species will not evolve past their base instincts? It is more than pathetic if that is what you believe.

[huge_egomd]

It is reassuring. I know how people act. Human people at least. If their behavior changed substantially, then how would I know how best to manipulate them?

[notavirtue]

[He opens his mouth to reply, then shuts it. That was a damn good question.]

I was not aware doctors were in the practice of manipulating people.

/turns this into a pick on House party

[bythewaves]

I must agree with Javik my friend, this is rather... a low standard!

Sure, why not--everyone pile on House ;p

[huge_egomd]

It's not low standards; it's called an open mind.

[And if you believe that, he's got some swampland he'd like to sell you.]

[bythewaves]

Really, House - as a healer you must surely have better standards than simply "breathing", I would have thought "carrying no disease" would also be a factor?

[ hello yes we are trolling ]

[huge_egomd]

That's what condoms are for, Maggie. And penicillin.

[;p~~~~~]

[bythewaves]

But surely you would not wish for your partner to suffer such either? and Condoms, my friend? You will struggle for children, if so!

[huge_egomd]

Why Maggie--surely you're not implying I'm disease-ridden? [He is, just not those kinds of diseases.]

And the lack of children is a point in the condom's favor. Come on--you know me. Do you really think I should be a parent?

[bythewaves]

I said nothing that you yourself did not imply~ [ cackle ]

As to that... [ Sobering ] I cannot answer in truth - I am not Galadriel, who might read your future truly - but I think that you would do your level best by the child - whether that might be good or bad I know not - but I know you well enough, I think, to believe that you would certainly try to give that child the best life they could have.

[huge_egomd]

You don't have to worry about me--I know where I've been. [Yeah, yeah- yuck it up, elf boy ;p

He's just going to boggle at you for a minute, Maggie. Sure, he's got a lot to offer and he might not screw up parenting as badly as he thinks he would...but he's pretty sure that's one question the universe doesn't need answered.]

Children are selfish, needy little whiners and I'm a selfish, needy, big whiner. It would all end in tears and a possibly a criminal trial.

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor's eyes when he meets' House's are calm and sure ]

Both true. And yet, I think you underestimate yourself, House. No man who works in the healers wards are ever entirely cold-hearted.

[ Hi, we think higher of you than you do, congrats? ]

[huge_egomd]

I'm not a homicidal psychopath, no, but I know my limits. I can barely take care of myself some days. No way I should be responsible for a child.

[You're sweet, Maggie...and deluded. Clearly you're in for a huge disappointment at some point.]

[bythewaves]

I think you would do better than you think. [ Maglor shrugs ] Nothing quite like having small children relying on you to teach you this. [ Admitedly, Maglor's situation is a leeeeetle different, seeing as the the small children in question were actually hostages... ]
