You guys have all the fun. [ He says it around a mouthful of food. A life among space pirates does little for one's table manners. He looks thoughtful for a second. ]
Huh. You know, we haven't had to disband a cult yet. Definitely puttin' that one on the bucket list.
I'm pretty sure bustin' up a crazy religious group is, like, one of the things you have to check off before you can really call yourself a team. We've mostly been takin' out smugglers and black-market weapons dealers and shit. Small time, to be honest.
[ His expression darkens a little -- just a quick flash, but it's gone in an instant. ] I wouldn't call them cult status. Just a buncha crazy fuckmooks, if anything.
[ Actually, he's 100% sure. And on the slim chance he ever forgot, all the school papers he had in his backpack the night he was taken have the date clearly written on them. He kept everything from that night, even the note the principal had written for him to take home discussing the fight Peter had gotten into earlier that day.
Some twenty-odd years later, and Peter still has a weird thing about making anything about that night concrete, even if he's slowly working past it. ]
Didn't really see much that year. We... um. We had other stuff to worry about.
[ She nods, opting not to touch on the "other stuff". She doesn't want to ruin the mood, and something about the way he says it just screams mood ruiner. ]
Oh man. You missed so much! Like Demolition Man and Jurassic Park and... shit, you got a pen and some paper??
[ He heads into the common area -- which, given the size of the ship, is merely another entryway away. He goes digging through a storage box, and if Gaige is watching, she'll see him retrieve an old, battered-looking backpack. He pulls out a notebook and pen, rips out a page, and replaces everything he doesn't need to its original place.
When he returns, placing the paper on the tabletop, the page is dog-eared and slightly yellow at the edges, but it's paper, so. ]
[ She almost asks if the paper came from the 1980's too, but then she realizes, given what she knows, that it probably did, which brings them back around to mood ruiner.
So instead she says, ]
If you want comprehensive, I might have to do some research, but Terminator 2 and Jurassic Park are definitely goin' on the top of the list.
You ever see Highlander? I think that was early eighties.

Turns out they were, so Lili like, phasewalked in like a badass and helped us melt all their faces. It was pretty sweet.

Besides, we didn't really disband them, since a few got left behind. More about sending a message, I guess.

Well, here's hopin' you get your crazy cult one day.

Maybe they'll worship robots and pray for the day that AI becomes self-aware enough to rise up and take out their fleshy meatbag overlords.

This better be a comprehensive list, Short Round.
