Talk:Francis Brigade/@comment-3028058-20101229062708/@comment-184.56.233.31-20101230013141

Woah, guys I need to fill you in. FRANCIS ATTACKED US! Well, attacked Nate mostly. Nate had made some dumb joke about taking over the EITC, which Francis took seriously. Nate said he was only joking (which he was, Nate is a petty thief, not exactly the high falootin' British type), but Francis started threatening Nate and called him an EITC traitor. Next thing I know, I sign in a few hours later. Nate whispers me and says he's being attacked by Francis (the ship attacking him was Francis's, the Black Mercenary). I tp in and naturally, am super confused. I start asking around and find out what happened from Matthew Darkskull (who was with the Brigade, so it's not like he's lying) as well as Nate what had happened. They asked me to shoot at Francis and I wouldn't. I whispered to Francis what was happening, he asked me to help, and I said I wasn't picking a side. I asked if we could meet at Ile De Porc, just us two, and talk this out, so that we can put this silly misunderstanding behind us. He refused, and sent me this message, "you are eitc trader good bye!" and defriended me right there. (?) I STILL wouldn't fight Francis, and even demanded Nate port at Ile so that we three could talk and figure this out. He wouldn't but eventually ported. I talked with Johnny Foulbellows, who, like many Francis Brigade soldiers, was confused and conflicted about fighting an ally. I asked him if he could get Francis to come so we could just talk this out. We went into the tavern and Francis eventually came. Matthew Darkskull was also there. When Francis came, I made sure to point out I was neutral and just wanted his side on what happened so we could smooth things over. He pulled out a sword and threatened me! Called me an EITC traitor, going, quite dramatically, "Back! Back!" I was just trying to fix all this, I wasn't taking either side. Even after this, I refuse to fight Francis, he is like my brother. But clearly, you can see something is wrong here.
