"Kneel, Tau'ri dog!"

Now that was the lamest excuse for a sobriquet I've ever heard. And I've been gifted with many of them over the years. A fact I would have assured the First Prime had I not been gasping from the blow to the solar plexus I'd just received.

"I said 'kneel.'"

Ignoring the deadly quiet words, threat inherent, I stood tall, forcing air into my protesting lungs. I'd hand myself over to Hathor voluntarily before giving him the satisfaction of seeing me succumb to his half-assed attempts at intimidation.

The staff weapon planted itself into my abdomen once more. Okay. Maybe they weren't half-assed after all.
