[closed] i'm not a hero, i'm not a savior; forget what you know.
Who: A collection of people listed here!
When: December 10th (IC)
Where: Delita's apartment.
What: Delita has... news he wants to talk about with others. Something is rotten in the state of CERES.
Rating/Warning: I can't think of anything!
I.
[delita is not one for social events - that much should have been made clear by the message that he sent out.]
Please come to my apartment. 7PM. December 10th. Directions enclosed.
I believe it is important regarding our current situation.
[however, this hasn't stopped delita from at least making an attempt to make things nice. there's (premade) whatever-the-equivalent-of-chex-mix is, and some (premade) punch, and some other various foods that one associates with a party. not that he's intending for this to be a party or anything like that, but if they're going to show up there'd at least better be food, right? of some sort.
he's not cooking for 10+ people though, and honestly, nobody wants that anyway... he's a fairly bland cook. his food is made for eating, not enjoying. as people arrive, however...]
Thank you for coming. Please make yourself comfortable.
[not that there's much... there's some chairs and whatnot but it's fairly sparse. some people are gonna have to lounge against the walls all cool-like or stand or sit on the floor. he hadn't thought about making this a big presentation, just a small group.]
II.
[once everyone's gotten themselves seated, and situatated, and as vaguely comfortable as they can, he'll begin.]
Thank you all for coming.
I know that we have been trying to gather information about CERES and what has brought us here. And as you all know - [he's assuming everyone is aware of this.] - I technically work for CERES, in security. One would think that this would put me in a position to hear things about how CERES operates or, if nothing else, how people feel about CERES.
[a brief pause.] It has not. That is what is strange, and why I have alerted you all to come here.
Any attempts I have made to address the subject are ... deflected. By everyone. I have been listening quite a bit, and it has yet to come up in conversation naturally. And when my fellow co-workers do speak the conversations tend to go in similar directions.
[this is difficult for him, just because he's not sure if he's explaining it well. it's not something that he can really figure out how to phrase.] It feels almost as if they are under a spell.
Something is not right about them. I have noticed these things in some of the people in the streets as well - not only security. A time or two, apropos of nothing, they have told me that they are "trapped", but could not or would not explain further what they meant by that.
I am not sure what steps to take next - or whether I can do so on my own - but this seems to be something that was not brought up at the previous meeting, and each person I have invited here because each of you does not seem likely to ... panic, and may have some idea as to what is happening here.
Please, speak.
[and that's when he'll stop speeching all kirei kotomine-style and let other people talk. there shouldn't be any specific tag order - let people tag in as they wish i guess?! make it work!!]

[he's recalling that conversation they had, where she was all like "well, i wouldn't be good in war!" and he's like "aw hell naw girl there's a use for you somewhere". this is the use he's found for her. he's just assuming, though, that all of this picking up on stuff is psychology-based and not like any sort of other powers.]
Even if I had not called everyone here, I would have asked you to do such. I think this is an area you are far better suited for than myself.
no subject
You really think so? [ Looks like she's back to being her perky self, now. ] I'm glad I'd be able to help! Just say the word, and I'll be there!
no subject
[see? he remembers big, complicated words... and things like that. he knows that athena is, of all the people here, probably the best suited for this particular task.]
See if you can speak to some of the residents of this place. Preferably those who work at the laboratory - I have more experience with them - but any will do, and see what you can find out. Perhaps there are some insights that someone more talented than myself can discover.
[...flattery will get you somewhere, delita. maybe? maybe he'll convince her to help.]
no subject
Alright, that's a really good idea!
[ She claps her hands together as she beams a bright smile. ]
I'll do just that.
no subject
just mostly.]
Please, tell me anything you find out. See if you know what has... happened to these people.
[he doesn't seem sure that something happened, though...]
no subject
[ PEACE SIGN.
TAKE ALL MY APPROVAL. ]
no subject
[there's something else he wants to say, but -- let's not. instead, just have him smiling at her. wow, so encouraging!
though he doesn't seem to quite get the peace sign - instead just politely staring and then moving on.]
Do you have any suggestions for other things that could be discovered?
no subject
They're illegal, I guess. [ She lets out a sigh. ] Where I come from, at least.
no subject
[delita looks at her, still smiling. he seems utterly unconcerned that what she is suggesting may be illegal.]
I am less concerned about the legality and more concerned with ideas, even if there are many practical reasons such may not work.
no subject
I'm sure we can think of something better. Give me a bit.
