@@benjiboy111111 A term for certain brands/types of particularly harsh/unfiltered cigarettes that were popular with ranch hands/cowboys back in the day. Possibly due to their cost and relative nicotine levels.
@@DrFopolopolas Perhaps? I’m not sure which came first, lol. Marlboro Reds, I believe, were the specific ones. But I’ve heard the phrase used colloquially for others cigs, as long as they’re strong and cheap. (Taste is usually irrelevant.)

His reaction to the nickname was cute. Though on the surface, he claimed she was going too far. Yet, deep down. He was thrilled someone didn't treat him like some sort of demi-god and only respected him out of fear. Though her being a Rogue Trader. Can also see her trying to butter up, Robu. All as a political move. I mean, how many Rogue Traders can claim they are FRIENDS with a Primarch? Still, less pragmatics point of view. She could see the loneliness in his eyes and longing for real companionship. Not in a romantic sense. But just to be treated normally. Even as she did respect him, like any mortal, out of fear. But knowing him more. The respect was less out of fear and more in awe of how even a man like, Robu, could still keep going. The BS he has gone through and is going through. He clearly needed people around him that would stop treating him as a Godlike figure and more like a man. And well, she did that. By not trying to run away when she could see the pent-up rage building. When a certain topic was brought up.
Would he be able to actually enjoy it, though, considering it would probably result in flashbacks to the day Guillimom yelled at him while he was hungover on the stuff?@@romanplays1
The lion will do one of two things. He will just hug Roboute and then take over a good chunk of the military matters so Guilliman can handle the administration without having to worry about military. Or he will hug Roboute, and then cull a large portion of the administratum and eclesiarchy.
Guilliman: "What makes you think you can converse on my level?" Rouge Traders: "Here's a letter, signed by your own dad and it says "The holder of this paper can do whatever the fuck he/she wants" so here am I"
Lord knows, if Alfabusa was still doing TTS he would make Guilliman have a reasonable amount of Amasec and Primarch grade Marry Jane packs stashed in the corner.
@@LoneSilverW0lf Long Dick Johnson, as he had a fucking long dick. Thus, the name. (Called that behind his back, in private, in whisper, at least two star systems away)
Classic primarch behaviour - getting themselves worked up until people around them can physically feel their anger. Pre-stinkified Typhon and a bunch of astartes shat their pants when the Lion was proper pissed at Horus and Luther, said something like getting caught in an explosion.
Yassili after hearing an emotionally stunted son of a god open up to her about his role in life and his personal struggles with the imperium and his family: *game is game*
One of Papa Smurfs biggest fears is that one day, it doesn't really matter if he is still alive or dead, people could warship him as an god. That would be than an glorious day for the Word Bearers. So people treating him with respect but still as an mortal is an little bit of hope for him.
I know she is a Rogue Trader but, even with that status I would be concerned how much a Primarch was confiding in me. That is all kinds of power showing vulnerability. The wrong type of person would try to take advantage of that and you could be a liability.
when that much power shows you vulnerability, you'd better be counting your life in the span of minutes and seconds. Nobody with that much Clout shares their inner-world without having a price to pay for it.
Yassili is more than a Rogue Trader, she's part of the Logos Historica (may be misremembering the specific latin), an organization of scribes, historians and anthropologists made up of atheists and other apostates that stand up to ecclesiarchy dogma. Guilliman recruits them to work on research, such as helping him write a book on the true history of the imperium, and special missions he can't trust religious inquisitors to do properly. For instance the mission he gave to Yassili and the context of this conversation was to uncover a 9000 year old original collectors edition of the Book of Lorgar. He does drop a lot of truth bombs on her all at once, however considering the main thing he admits is directly related to her work and the only thing stopping him being honest with everyone all the time is that his information would spark a civil war it makes sense he'd be so candid with a person he specifically selected to be a rationalist about things like this.
dark eldar wife: honey wake up the imperium needs you! gillium: when did i get a elf wife? darl eldar: we got married when you were ion a coma still gullioum: what?
Robot Gullman is probably the kind of guy you have have a casual conversation with but the problem is everyone around him is a bit crazy and everyday he’s just “oh my fucking god whyyyyyyyy”
Yes. She's the only non religous fanatic G-Man met so he entrusted her with stuff like analyzing the Lectitio Divinatus without spouting it's religous nonsense. And figuring out what year it is because apparently knowing the year is heresy.
I thought rowboat girlymans likeness was supposed to be of julius ceasar, a statesman who funnily enough, never wanted to be a general but he was just too damn good at war so they begged him to lead. But gman is a general forced to be a statesman lol
Okay so the fact you used the rogue trader portrait i ended up going with in game tickles me greatly. Cause now all i can see is my five foot psyker women having the funniest chat with a primarch and calling him robu.
Me: "how ya doin mah dude row boat?!" *fist bump his bewildered power fist and go on with my life* Roboute: "... My sons are never gonna believe this..."
absolute favourite primarch. he is not the strongest nor the coolest but he is just a pissed off man who is tired of his job and his dayly life. just like us
He's still not happy about all the religious craziness. It goes against the Emperor's original plans and isn't the Imperium they were supposed to be building.
Me: "Good day G-man, how is life?" Guiliman: "Could be better but I do what I have to do, how are you doing?" Me: *starts to realise the secrets of the universe.*
I feel like Rogue Traders embody humanity and who we really are better than anything else in WH40K. Not All Traders for everything we are, but each Trader shows more truth about us than anything else in imperium.
Rogue traders are just a diffrent breed. and none of them are alike. Some are monstrous psychopaths. some a zealous fanatics. others dogmatic militarists. and then there are some who are goofy adventurers.
