Sollux, an ex-Fixer, takes time to rant about Imperial Intelligence.
Also possibly implied Imperial Agent spoilers.
Also, IA story critical.
(Rated M for language because Sollux swears a lot.)
- Alright, I'll even speak normally for your sake. So I heard you are crazy enough to WANT to work in the intelligence? Well, listen to me. Don't. Go find something else to do.
- Because after I will tell you a thing, you will have no fucking reason to retain this desire.
- Because it sucks 24\7, they are all a bunch of brainwashed spineless lickspittles there, and Sith can and do dance on your heads 24\7 and they brainwashed me even though I was a fucking FIXER and wasn't even supposed to talk to those assholes. Yet when one barged in and fucked up my work, I was supposed to lick her shoes? But I didn't and I told her to back off and talk to the watchers.
- So yeah, in short: it sucks, and you get NO reward aside from being locked in a prison on Nar Shaddaa when you outlive your usefulness.
- I still don't get the motivation. Like, Sith go for power. Jedi go for peace and learning and whatever Jedi do. Bounty Hunters just want glory or cash or both. Smugglers just want to fuck the system. Troopers want to defend their factions or something. And all of these people get some kind of reward in the end, except those who go for the Intelligence.
- There's no reward, and the job fucking sucks, and you can't even do whatever you want with the time that's supposed to be your FREE time.
- Honestly, what the fuck.
