(no subject)
Characters: Stoneface (stonyfaced) and OPEN to any applicants. Please tag yourselves in accordingly!
Date/Time: FORWARDDATED to Sunday, December 6th. Interviews go from 10 AM to 7 PM. Please list what time it is when you tag in.
Location: The Arena (and the rest of Melee Island if your character requests the use of The Range, etc.)
Rating: PG-13 for assumed swearing.
Summary: In Which Fey Spams Your F-List Even More, Stoneface interviews and spars with prospective members of the Watch.
Note: All current members of the Guard interested in switching over (Handmaiden, Sky and Wolverine) WILL be included in this, but you all can handwave it, because they'll all be accepted anyway. Also, not all people who drop in will be accepted. Stoneface is a suspicious, rotten old bastard and if you rub him the wrong way, he'll have some reservations. Also keep in mind that if you play an explicitly non-human character, your chances will be slightly lessened--he's a... uh, speciesist, I think you'd call it. XD Thanks for everybody's cooperation. Oh, and one more thing! If your character has a big issue with the Watch, the locations and times of the interviews have been made quite public, so they're free to barge in and demand ANSWERS.
The response to his suggestion of the Watch had gone much better than Stoneface had expected--it appeared that although many had issues, the only one with major ones was Aurora. Not enough to stop it in the making, and certainly not enough to make him take pause. It was troubling, though, the things people brought up--no matter how much he wished he didn't, he agreed with them.
He was no rule-maker. He was a rule-keeper. All he wanted to do was stop people from being hurt and instill a few laws about the place. If he thought too much about judicial systems and imprisonments and elections and The People (whoever they were), his head began to hurt. It felt as though he was standing on a frozen pool of water, wearing silk slippers and balancing a tray of eggs upon his head.
Still, this was needed, and it didn't look like anybody was willing to do it but him. If he was frank with himself, he'd admit that the reason he didn't ask anybody else to do it was that he only trusted himself to do it, which was a scary enough thought in and of itself; his deep seated mistrust of authority didn't fade no matter how far up the ladder he climbed.
He'd started it and he intended to finish it. It had taken him a while to decide where the interviews would take place (they really did need a Watch house at some point, didn't there?) but he had finally decided upon the Arena. It was large, quiet, and had enough space to show their stuff.
Taking a seat at the bottom-most bleachers, he scanned the sky, and wondered exactly what he was getting himself into.
