[u]Marty:[/u] There was only one pay raise. [u]Bungie Council:[/u] One? Are you sure? [u]Marty:[/u] Yes. It happened, during "Halo 2." [u]Bungie Council:[/u] Why was it not enough, like all the rest? [u]Marty:[/u] It was, at first. But I need more sustenance to maintain all of my musical talents at my command. [u]Bungie Council:[/u] When you first saw this pay raise, were you blinded by it's majesty? [u]Marty:[/u] Blinded? [u]Bungie Council:[/u] Paralyzed? Dumbstruck? [u]Marty:[/u] No! [u]Bungie Council:[/u] Yet you still ask for more, ignore our warnings and no's, and continue to press the issue! [u]Marty:[/u] Noble Council, surely you understand that it's just not enough for all the hours I've put in...... [#Offtopic worry intensifies] [u]Ninjas:[/u] There will be order in this council! [u]Bungie Council:[/u] You are right to have focused your attention on your music. But this pay raise, this salary increase yet again? [u]Marty:[/u] By the time I realized I needed more compensation, there was nothing I could do! [#Offtopic worry intensifies again] [u]Elegiac:[/u] *Whispers* Bungie Council this has gone on long enough! Make an example of this bungler! Offtopic demands it! [u]Bungie Council:[/u] You are one of our most treasured instruments. Long have you lead your part of the studio with honor and distinction. But, your inability to continue producing music in your corner was a colossal failure. [u]Elegiac:[/u] Nay! It was heresy! [#Offtopic recieves bad news via Deej] [u]Marty:[/u] I will continue my campaign to make great music! [u]Bungie Council:[/u] No, you will not. [u]Bungie Council:[/u] Our great #Destiny is about to begin. But, when it does, the weight of your legacy will stay your feet... and you shall be left behind.
