[OPEN TO ALL] 2nd DEFENSE MEETING
Date & Time: Nov. 10th, early morning to late afternoon/evening
Location: Near the Botanical Gardens
Characters: EVERYONE AND ANYONE. Ehether it was previously arranged with Fiona, someone else did the convincing, or they just happen to be around at the right time.
Summary: Second Defense Meeting. Some chatting, some sparring, a little showing off, and everything in between.
Warnings: Swearing and violence, very yes.
[Only problem with trying to have the meeting near a botanical garden is unfortunately the spacious non-elevated scenery. At least last time there was rubble to hop on, but no matter. Near the front of the gathering crowd, Fiona will do what she can to find something to stand on and if that’s not enough she’ll tap her staff loudly onto the ground and it’ll produce a bright light for a moment. Hopefully it’s an attention grabber.]
Thank you everyone for coming to our second defense meeting. For those of you coming again and those of you here for the first time, welcome. Although this place itself is hardly one to be welcomed to, I am glad to see others here. We are trying to be a united effort and for this I say welcome to. I’m Fiona and I’m the one who has been coordinating the meetings thus far.
[A short breath as a small bitterness creeps onto her tone of voice] As I can never stress enough, those Initiative bastards here are unorganized fools who trip over themselves while we are expected to win this war of theirs for them. Although they have made some improvements since the recent battle they still lack any generals or commanders to guide us. We are our own guidance and our own defense andit is up to ourselves to keep each other safe and deliver a blow on this enemy of theirs without sacrificing each other to do so.
I won’t lie to you, this defense may not only be one against the UE. In past months the Initiative has performed… tests on those they’ve brought here. These tests have been harmful to us, from poisoning to using our own memories against us. Whatever mishap or cause that they may claim to have brought these tests about still proves their incapability to defend the very soldiers they’ve brought here unwillingly to fight. However just their cause may be, we are on our own to defend ourselves. From whatever may come against us.
For the meeting today, I hope for everyone to get to know one another. That is our greatest disadvantage. We are all from different worlds where some have magic, or technology, or neither. It is impossible to predict what each other are capable of and that is why we must learn. If we do not then lives may be lost for what we never cared to know.
Our third meeting to come we will be deciding our leaders. For as it stands there are none.
Each person attending our meetings will be able to nominate a person they see fit to lead those around them. But they will not be able to nominate themselves. Three nominations and others may vote for them. Those nominated will be allowed to make a short speech during the meeting’s time and answer questions to those concerned. At the end of the meeting we will vote. And hopefully we will have five leaders by the end of our third meeting. These leaders will be choosing groups that the rest of us will adhere to. Come our fourth meeting, we will see if the chosen leaders are the ones right for their positions and if the groups made are truly capable of defending one another.
We will not allow each other to fall.
[She’ll take a moment to look around then before nodding. At least it appears that most were listening.]
Thank you all for coming.

And what exactly have you analyzed?
no subject
[ Also probably how to kill you but that's impolite to say. ]
no subject
So you've concluded..?
no subject
There will be casualties, that is inevitable.
That pride will likely be the greatest enemy that must be overcome.
no subject
Casualties may be inevitable but that gives us no reason to allow it to be so. This is an effort like any other, if having this group can save even one life then we have accomplished something. We should not limit ourselves simply because it is easier to do so.
[And then her demeanor shrinks.] But otherwise you're right. I can't argue with that. I'm not a leader and I'm certainly not a Commander of any army, but here I am trying to create this group. [She'll make a wide gesture to the others about the area] This must count for something, if not the ideal for improvement and hope of unifying.
no subject
As for unification, Unity is something that requires the kind of willpower and ruthlessness that I'm unsure anyone here possesses.
[ He knows what unity requires, and it is brutal indeed. His brotherhood, after all, was created for the unification wars and the Crusade that followed. ]
no subject
And you do possess this ruthlessness?
no subject
Possibly. I am not Phobos, however, or Medes. Better to advise, assist, and watch.
[ Also, for all his bluntness, Priad has something of a soul and isn't a completely cruel bastard. Only enough of a bastard to win. ]
no subject
So you will stand here and support but do nothing more? Is that correct?
no subject
[ He looks at her once more, standing utterly still, as if waiting for a command. ]
no subject
[She'll give a small shrug but leave it at that, she doesn't really grasp his intent so well after all.]
