[the video is a portrait of contrast. Sam Merlotte looks haggard, worn... and a little apprehensive. He seems like he's trying to decide if he should be addressing anyone at all ( Read more... )

It's good to see you out of contract, Mr. Merlotte... it's about time that whole mess has been sorted out.

Dragged on for a while there, didn't it? [wry, bitter and something more.]

Re: [Voice] gaveherwings October 24 2011, 20:13:19 UTC

After the case had processed, I'd thought for certain it wouldn't be much longer-

But AGI is rather skilled at threading out their bureaucracy, isn't it?

...I'm sorry that's it's taken so long.

That and their clubs are pretty much all they're known for. [nevermind how much more there is to that - not least of which were Sam's own efforts to slow down the process, for reasons he can't bring himself to understand.

he just shrugs at the last, uncomfortably.] It is what it is. I'm out now.

As well as the media, imported luxuries- AGI has its thumbs tucked away in many pies, and I doubt they want many of them known.

Good. I think it's detestable that one newcomer should hold any claim of ownership over another.

[for the first time in many months, Sam doesn't argue the point.]

How've things been on your end then? With the hospital?

[Voice] gaveherwings October 25 2011, 00:37:17 UTC

With SERO tightening its belt? Difficult.

deservesabone October 25 2011, 04:09:47 UTC

What's that doin' to your people?

gaveherwings October 25 2011, 06:49:52 UTC

My people? Well, finding a pharmacy which will fill all prescriptions is definitely a challenge.

deservesabone October 25 2011, 18:56:36 UTC

At the hospital, I meant.

[And he nods.] SERO and AGI both are really tryin' to extend their regulation powers, huh?

gaveherwings October 25 2011, 19:20:35 UTC

The central administa- the government doesn't have the resources to spare for minor consumer regulation...

Which, forgive me, I understand your business is under pressure from all of this, but it's a very serious matter when people desperately need their medications, and it's being distributed entirely by corporate whim of control.

...I can understand the shortage in light of the closed ports, but it's foolish to think they'll relinquish that hold when the docks can take new shipments again.

It's something the administration has a responsibility to keep in check.

Especially since they'll be able to gouge the prices or start puttin' membership restrictions on 'em. Yeah, I see what you mean.

gaveherwings October 28 2011, 01:47:52 UTC

No responsible citizen's bureau has any real authority here...

deservesabone October 29 2011, 01:34:39 UTC

We're tryin' to make the NCC one, aren't we?

gaveherwings October 29 2011, 04:10:04 UTC

In hopes of securing an office of newcomer affairs, but even so that is a long time in the making.

deservesabone October 30 2011, 01:44:19 UTC

I thought Raul or one of them would've made progress on it by now.
