[Thread] Begin The Proceedings (ALL)

Sep 20, 2008 16:52

Now that things had (more or less) returned to normal with everyone wearing their own faces and bodies, Jing wanted to get this council underway before the next thing struck. Especially since the next thing, for all they knew, would be the Keepers showing up on their doorstep. So he made an announcement on the messengers and asked everyone to ( Read more... )

ARRIVING thieveryofstars September 20 2008, 21:05:48 UTC

[OOC: After seeing Jing's announcement over messengers, people are invited to come to the auditorium. There are plenty of seats, so mingle while you're getting settled!]

Re: ARRIVING flipping_bird September 20 2008, 21:32:42 UTC

Jing had been as good as his word. Robin looked around the auditorium with approval on his face -- it seemed that there were more residents interested in improving things than he'd guessed.

"I see you came as well," Quatre said. Not that he was overly surprised, really. In fact, he wouldn't be surprised if several people he knew showed up. "Mind if I sit next to you?"

Re: ARRIVING flipping_bird September 21 2008, 08:59:26 UTC

"Of course!" Robin said, making room for Quatre with alarcity. It seemed like it had been a while since he'd talked to the younger of econtra's two Quatres. In fact not since the Ball -- the Ball Robin had been in such a hurry to leave. He winced at the memory.

"It's good to see you," he said, before Quatre could take his manner amiss. "Especially here. After what you told me about the situation in your world, I've got no doubt that your viewpoint will be useful."

Re: DISCUSSIONS thieveryofstars September 21 2008, 13:40:41 UTC

Although privately thrilled that people were actually willing to use the "wait your turn" approach when asking questions, Jing gave Alema's question his full attention.

"The purpose of this council is more to organize than order," he said emphatically. "There's no one person or persons in charge of everyone else. This is so that people can put their efforts into one pool. We'll all get more out of it that way."

He looked sheepish for a moment. "We're not making a government here. I'm better at wrecking governments than making them. But even I admit that a little sense and order around here could be a welcome change."

SHARE THE STAGE thieveryofstars September 20 2008, 21:07:21 UTC

[OOC: In which the stage is offered to anyone else who had proposals for what should be happening in Neocontra. Take the spotlight!]

Re: SHARE THE STAGE pastaintthrough September 21 2008, 05:15:04 UTC

Oh boy. Public speaking? So not Rumor's thing. That was reserved more for Spaceboy (but that's only if public speaking was synonymous with punching villains) or Violin who had more eloquence in her little finger than the rest of the team combined. Which wasn't saying a whole lot for the rest of the team, unfortunately.

Still. A Rumor had to do what a Rumor had to do. The hero hadn't even bothered to prepare a speech, preferring to go in by the seat of her pants, standing near the stage and waiting to be flagged up for her turn.

Re: SHARE THE STAGE packratsawyer September 21 2008, 06:20:39 UTC

"Gonna make a speech there, Bird?" Sawyer called cheerfully from where he sat in the audience, feet propped up on the seat in front of him, arms folded across his chest, sarcastic expression on his face. Obviously he could care less about manners or interrupting the meeting. "Hell, this thing can't get any more boring, right?"

Re: SHARE THE STAGE pastaintthrough September 21 2008, 06:24:40 UTC

As cool as she thought Sawyer was, there was no way in hell she was going to take shit from him, especially not tonight. "Yeah, I am. You gonna shut up and listen or am I going to make you have to?" Rumor snapped, fidgeting with one of her gloves and resisting the urge to flip him the bird. She'd show him a bird alright.

After a moment's hesitation, the teen made her way onto the stage, heading straight for the podium and looking out at all of the people. That was a lot of people. Like, really. A lot. She cleared her throat, waiting -- not entirely sure for what, but it seemed appropriate. Build suspense.

AFTERWARDS thieveryofstars September 20 2008, 21:08:06 UTC

[OOC: Once the meeting is finished and people are leaving, if they'd like to discuss amongst themselves.]

OOC --> OOC thieveryofstars September 20 2008, 21:08:28 UTC

Post for questions or whatever. X_X

Re: OOC --> OOC flipping_bird September 21 2008, 09:26:06 UTC

Just to let everyone know that my schedule is going to be spotty -- inconvenient timezone + working tomorrow means that I hope you won't wait on Robin in any threads he's in -- just go on without him, assuming he's there please!

Re: OOC --> OOC phd_query September 28 2008, 05:35:03 UTC

Same, minus the inconvenient timezone.
