[The first time the NV turns on, it's at the Newcomer Memorial Center, with a view on one of the markers and some flowers.]

This is very beautifully done, and I-- [Raul's voice is hurt, as the NV is shifted, and then a voice is heard in the background before the NV is turned off

A dance? Is it going to be formal?

[rapturescreed]

Yes, it is. It's going to be black tie.

[quackery]

Is that the same as formal?

[rapturescreed]

Yes, it is the same as formal.

What sort of political power does the NPP have? What sort of sway against the corporations? I'd hardly think lacking money would be conducive to winning power, but I could be wrong.

Lacking money does make things a little more difficult. The NPP has as much political power as any other political party here in the city; we were able to set up a situation where Newcomers could become Siren's Port citizens, so many of us are now full citizens of the city. Just as well, we also facilitated a talk between the Newcomers and the companies when they tried to take over the Tower apartments.

Suffice to say, we have a lot of manpower, but lack the funds to start our more major campaigns.

Do the companies aligned with your party tithe to the party? I should think that would be a decent source of income, unless not many are affiliated.

What sorts of things are you needing of people who seek to become involved?

permavideo

[rapturescreed]

We do not have many aligned with our party, though every newcomer here is a part of it, in their own way.

That would depend on what they would want to be involved in. We have a lot of people working in the offices, but there are certain qualities one needs to be on the board.

Did this come up from what I said to you before?

private voice;

[rapturescreed]

This fundraiser has been in the works for a few months, now.

[kingofrooks]

I'll take that as a 'no', then.

[rapturescreed]

It is a no, that is correct.

Good day, Raul.

You may be pleased to know that since our last meeting for the fundraiser, I've finished two unique bots I we can auction off.

By the way, did you like the watch I sent you for Christmas?

Private Voice;

[rapturescreed]

Good day, Mr. Chaolan. Thank you, I',m sure they will both bring a fairly large price at the auction.

[Nods.] I did. I wanted to thank you for it.

Private Voice;

[excellentviolet]

I see... I was thinking if I could auction off one watch as well. What do you think?

Private Voice;

[rapturescreed]

I think that would be a wonderful idea. I know I would bid on it, if I didn't already have one.

[longaevus]

How is the fund currently?

[rapturescreed]

I am not actually in charge of the Newcomer fund. You would have to ask Ms. von Karma, since she holds onto it ever since Mr. Edgeworth left.

[longaevus]

I'll be certain to do so, thank you.

[rapturescreed]

[Man, they are so formal with each other... he smiles.]

How are you, Helen?
