[open] woah so serious

Who: Everybody!
When: 9 July (IC)
Where: The Sanctuary
What: A follow up to this! Citywide discussion log.
Rating/Warning: None so far! (Please let me know if things should be changed!)

[ the morning of the 9th, everybody should receive a text ]

Hi! I've updated the timeline summarising the recent events here in the colony. Check it out if you have the time, and let me know if there's anything you'd like to contribute!

Also, pizza party later at the Sanctuary. Be there at around 5! There's free food and drinks for everybody. :)

-- Athena Cykes





[ as promised, there's pizza boxes everywhere in the Sanctuary, and one of the tables has an array of drinks being served. there's soda, water, juice, and but nothing alcoholic! this is a serious event, after all, so let's try not to get drunk right now… ah. . . and don't forget to leave your cerevices by the door! this is a ceres-free environment after all.

once enough people are around and seated comfortably, athena tries to call everybody's attention by clapping her hands and yelling OBJECTION! really loudly. and we all know how loud she can be. . . so that's definitely one objective done. ]


So, I guess it's time to talk about that post on the network by that anonymous robot-looking thing. For those who just arrived, this is what I'm talking about. [ and with that, she clicks on a button on the remote control she's holding, and by one of the walls, the text in the said post will be projected. ]

Should we trust that anonymous poster, or should we trust CERES? I doubt there's anybody here who wants to trust CERES of all-- [ well, CERES is not a people, so she just waves a hand dismissively to finish her statement. ] Especially not after all those robots came in and tried to replace the originals.

I think… I want to trust Mosley, though. But nobody here has to share the same sentiment. I don't know much about him, and I'm just following my gut feeling, but-- [ she shakes her head. she can just talk about this further when prodded. she should be providing facts right now, not her opinion. ]

The moment upon arriving in the colony, we were fed information that the Flamines consumed our worlds - but we all know that's not true, either. After all, there are people here who have been able to go back home for a few days. From most of our experience with the Flamines, they're after CERES too, but at the same time, they've been working together. Or they used to, anyway. For those who don't know, the ocular implants we have are by the Flamine Federation. But now, the Flamines are after CERES because they have a debt to pay.

[ she glances around the room now, trying to look at everybody in the eye. ]

Tellus, in this case, are the following parties: The Bridge, and the four "Gods". [ air quotes included. ] Maris, Caeli, Occidi, and Ardeo. The Bridge was once held captive by CERES, and she was released by some people here. To thank them for what they did, The Bridge brought us to the jungle—her "home" and let us stay there for about a week or so. It wasn't exactly the best experience, but there aren't a lot good experiences here in the first place.

I could talk more about the parties in this post if asked, but for now, I want all of us to decide what to do with this announcement. I'd like to investigate all these parties, if possible, including Occidi, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Information and facts are our best weapon right now, after all.

So, if anybody else has something to say about all this, feel free. The floor is yours. And if there's anything you can offer, or if you know anything else, please share it with everybody. I know there's not any information I know that I would hide from anybody here.

[ awkwardly, she just shuffles away and takes a seat on one of the nearest sofas, hoping somebody would speak up and give their two cents. ]

[Illidan spoke up from behind the boy, remaining in the far corner of the room himself. He agreed with the human that more effort to get information should be taken, but he clearly did not understand just what he was facing.

It was worth testing the boy to see if he could back up his bold words.

I have infiltrated one such tower during a flood, even in the buildings weakened state it was no easy feat. What makes you think you could pull such a thing off?

If anyone thinks this mission will be easy then it's just as well that we don't put them in the team.

[Still talking big, still standing tall. Still talking of will versus could, because this isn't a fucking matter of Should It Be Done, was it? It had to happen. Neji was fairly he wasn't the only one with that in mind; why did he feel like he was?

He turns to face the monster; doesn't flinch, doesn't balk-- can't really hide oneself in an enclosed space such as this, right? Neji's pale eyes search for Illidan's before he continues.]
It's a task we shinobi are trained in from our days in the Academy. If I knew of a way to relay information from my position to the outside, to a reliable person, I would have at least already attempted this myself.

[Please believe that he's not eager.] Which tower did you infiltrate?

[He knew the information he gathered from that mission had long since been shared with the general crowd, but he was always still reluctant to share his knowledge in general. The boy showed some promise, though. If he was trained in infiltration as he said, he could be of use.

He met the boys gaze, a faint green glow emanating from beneath his blindfold where his eyes should be. He didn't appear to be having any troubles seeing, however. At least nto for the moment.

The tower I infiltrated no longer stands. At its base it contained a vast storage of concentrated magic. Concentrated to the point of being incredibly volatile. Rather than seeing it fall back into enemy hands, or risking it to destabilize, I detonated the stores, which collapsed the building.

As far as communications go, I do not have anything that would be of use to you, but there are many other ways I could provide aide for such a mission.
