Pseudo-worldwide broadcast

Sep 20, 2012 14:54

[Anyone who is tuning in to any of the nearby broadcast messages will find that every frequency is changing gears, getting ready for an important announcement while simultaneously asking viewers and listeners to stay tuned.  The challenges of making a worldwide broadcast now when there's no world wide web are downright herculean, but that isn't ( Read more... )

Kincaid's watching the broadcast, with tight lips and a troubled expression.

"I've heard way too many would be world conquerors making speeches like this, but if it's as bad as he says..."

He shook his head. "I don't like this. Not one bit."

[And Josh is watching it too, frowning a little.]

So long as Bian doesn't try to put himself at the helm of the response against these new guys, I don't think there'll be much to worry about.

But we've worked with him before and things turned out alright so until more red flags get raised there's nothing we can really do.

"Well I wouldn't expect anyone to jump and tear him down based on me feeling uneasy. If these aliens are as bad as he's saying they are, then he's absolutely right. I'm just going to be keeping a close eye on this."

Yeah.

... Think we should throw our lot in with this movement if it gains some traction?

I can't count how many times someone's tried to bring up a unified front. Most succeed to a point but... How long will that last before someone makes a grab for power.

[[He looks a bit thoughtful about it but...]]

Power Play. Power Play.

...I wouldn't be surprised if someone like the Titans would pull some shit like that.

[[The Titans ALWAYS do shit like that. Even in the vidja this setting is based on!]]

Them or the AEU. But... I get the feeling that, stated or not, it would end up our place to prevent that grab for happening.

Of course it is! You think most of this crew's going to stand around and let it happen? Heh...

Even Gucun...I hope they're alright...

Yeah. But Cheng has Devon backing him up... and Arkham isn't too far away, right? And if Gucun had fallen we would've heard about it.

I'm sure that it won't fall again that easily. But this does make their already tough job harder.

It is a bit surprising that he considers this new group more of a threat than the Festum though. Most people seem to consider them to be the worst thing to fight against.

What kind of "ally" condemns people who are part of your cause? The Irgelion people have been atoning for what we did for a decade. Why would you use us to incite anger?

[Got hung up on that, eh Sora?]

[Not the only one, Sora.]

He probably could have picked his words better.

... Then again, the DC's not too different from Thaumata.

I'm sure he did it on purpose. People remember that conflict, why not play on their fears that our intentions aren't as peaceful as we claim? [She sighs.] Damn him.

Thaumata? That's... the anti-space organization, right? Gets violent when it feels like someone's being too adventurous?

That's them. Hating space, going out into it, and people who come to Earth from there.

...Grandma...

[Hana couldn't see if they had any incidents involving Fairy Park. If there was, what happened? Was it okay? Was her grandma okay? Were any of the PreDesus there able to drive off everyone?]

I`m sure Fairy Park`s fine. We`d probably have gotten a missive by now if they`ve been attacked.

I hope so... just... I can't help but worry...

We'll be getting news any time soon anyhow.
