I don’t know if everyone else noticed, but Elias IX had been acting odd lately.  E spent eir time sitting in one room muttering about “communist revolutions”.  This afternoon, I confronted em over it, saying that not only are revolutions acts of rebellion, but also communism is meaningless since we don’t own anything anyway.  The argument grew heated and e pulled eir wand of death on me.  By God’s grace, eir first death ray missed me and my own wand sent em streight to the floor.  E’s now safely out cold in the Detention Cell, where e will hopefully be unable to start a revolt.
