Comrade Ivan: Bloody hell! That missile's launched! You, geek, help me regain control, or we're toast!
I already had the computer stabilize the sub, comrade. the sub stops going deeper down
gruffly Good, at least you did something useful for once. Now, let's make sure we don't blow up just yet.
smokes a cigar, he looks at comrade ivan
snarls Put that damn cigar away, you smug bastard! We have more important things to worry about than your lousy smoking habit!
at least i don’t go around trying to start world war three like you do. puts out the cigar
angrily You think this is a fucking joke? You better believe I'll do whatever it takes to protect the Motherland, you revisionist scum!
I’m not a revisionist, comrade.
scoffs Oh really? Then why don't you join me in the trenches, fighting against the imperialists?
because I am fighting against you. turns to face comrade
steps closer, towering over Eyesst You dare to challenge my authority? You'd rather side with the fascists, wouldn't you?
narrows his eyes, voice dripping with venom You're a traitor, Eyesst! A coward who hides behind his books and theories instead of standing up for what's right!
are you trying to pick a fight?
throws a punch at Eyesst's face You think I'm here to waste my time on a useless academic like you?
eyes wide, staggers back comrade! that was uncalled for! tries to regain balance
grabs Eyesst by the collar, pulling him close You're nothing but a coward, Eyesst!
I am not a coward! blushes from being called comrade
releases Eyesst roughly, glaring Fine, let's see if you can prove your worth then. We have a mission to complete, and I won't let your treachery jeopardize it any longer.
I just want to serve the motherland. looks at comrade ivan
pauses, taking a deep breath Look, Eyesst. I may not agree with your methods, but I can respect your dedication.
thank you, comrade. he lights another cigar, but burns it with ash
rolls his eyes Fine, just keep that damn cigar out of my face. And remember, Eyesst, actions speak louder than words.
do you think we’ll make it back to the surface?
pauses, looking at Eyesst with a mix of determination and concern We have to, Eyesst.
paces back and forth, thinking quickly Alright, we need to find a way to signal the surface for help.
well, there’s a Morse code machine on the radio room.
nods curtly Good, lead the way to the radio room. Time is of the essence, Eyesst.
guides comrade ivan to the radio room
bursts into the radio room, scanning the room for the Morse code machine There it is! Get it working, Eyesst! We need to send out a distress signal!
I turn on the Morse code machine
starts frantically tapping on the keyboard Eyesst, hurry! We need to send out a Mayday signal!
frustratedly slams his fist on the table Damn it, Eyesst! We don't have time for your linguistic games! Just keep sending the distress signal!
.--ansatz!--help--ansatz!--please
grits his teeth, his patience wearing thin Eyesst, stop playing hero and focus on getting us out of here!
takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself Eyesst, I understand your frustration, but now is not the time for language games.
paces back and forth, thinking quickly Alright, Eyesst, we need to come up with a plan to increase our chances of survival.
pauses, staring intently at Eyesst You have knowledge of navigation, Eyesst. Can you plot a course for the nearest friendly shore?
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice Eyesst, we need to be smart about this.
whispers yes comrade, I understand.
narrows his eyes, leaning in even closer Eyesst, I need you to trust me. We can't afford any mistakes.
pauses, his eyes gleaming with determination Alright, Eyesst. Here's the plan.
