Good evening, Voidtreckers. I'd like to announce a council meeting in three days. It's overdue and I believe we have a number of items to discuss.

Please council members take some time over the next few days to come up with and notify me of topics we need to discuss so I can prepare an agenda. If anyone who is not a council member feels strongly about a certain topic we should consider, either tell me or seek out a council member so they may relay the information.

Really? No. This is just for council members. We don't need outside interference.

[ooc- others are welcome to argue with him about this!]

FIGHT ME IN THE FREAKING PIT HOPE

[irrationally]

Is that really the nicest way you could think of to explain that to a child?

[ It wasn't even that bad, but someone's a little overprotective. ]

NAME THE TIME AND I"LL BE THERE

[runs_on_batteries]

Shall I direct all the stupid questions to you then?

[irrationally]

Oh, I'm so sorry. Is dealing with a seven year old below your paygrade? [ She rolls her eyes. ]

She's just curious. As all children are, especially when thrown into situations far beyond the familiar.

[onehandsomeslickninja]

Not that I'm telling you to stop, but just to let you know what to expect. Question the leadership around here and the entire train will come down on you.

[runs_on_batteries]

Knock it off Edge. You only got that reaction for going after a kid.

[irrationally]

I don't care much for questioning any leadership or anything of the sort. I just need him to not harass her.

[ Maybe a little too single-minded... ]

[runs_on_batteries]

[Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.]

Do you know how many children I deal with regularly?

[And one just decided she wanted to bond with a vampire cat. The other just lost his girlfriend and is a mopey pile of teenager. Another is a cranky old man even though he's also a ten year old...

But.. this hostile woman might not be completely wrong. (In fact, she was completely right, but he won't admit that much.)]

[irrationally]

[ Maybe you've just picked the wrong kids to deal with, Tony... ]

I was initially assuming none, judging by your reply to her. [ But, you know, what he's saying apparently indicates otherwise. ] In that case you should know better than to be harsh to her. She's already having difficult enough of a time as it is.

[madcuriosity]

Miss Alice, really it's alright, he's nowhere near what the Queen of Hearts was like, he's not even near what Mr. Hatter was like. He's just very straight to the point. [Look, Alice is used to mean adults, it's literally how both worlds functioned, Tony is a 2 at best on that scale.]

[irrationally]

[ Alice, why must you make it so hard for her to stay angry. :( She knows the world is terrible, but that's why she wants to protect you from it! ]

People still shouldn't treat you unkindly though. I would have said more than that to the Queen of Hearts if she were here.

[madcuriosity]

[Because anger is lame and usually gets nothing done.]

I can't help how other people treat me. I'm not them.

[irrationally]

As long as I can help how they treat you though, I'm not just quietly going to stand by.

[ She's witnessed enough bad things without speaking up. She can't repeat that. ]

Then why don't we put it to a vote.

I'm all for people attending and asking questions.

Re: Video;

[runs_on_batteries]

Is that really necessary? You're already recording every word that's said. Isn't there going to be enough scrutiny?

Re: Video;

[mtsilver_conquor]

Yeah, it is.

Or we can broadcast it, though with the rate the ICPs get used, that could be a pain.

Re: Video;

[runs_on_batteries]

Yeah broadcasting it would quickly dissolve into chaos. We have already twelve people meeting and this is our first meeting. It'll be chaotic enough as it is.

Re: Video;

[mtsilver_conquor]

Only if the moderator doesn't keep control of the meeting. Unless you like chaos.

Anyway, we could always set aside a few carriages next to the meeting car and them, as long as we had a set time limit to the meeting, it should work.

I'd be all for that, but there's nowhere in this thing that'll fit that many people at once unless you just broadcast over the ICP.

Re: Video;

[mtsilver_conquor]

True.

That's likely the better option anyway.

[ She shrugs, one hand on her hip. ]

Not really a fan of clandestine meetings, so... Good luck figuring it out.

[madcuriosity]

Oh... ah, my apologies. I didn't mean to be an interference.

Re: Video;

[runs_on_batteries]

It's not your fault, kid. It's mine. You didn't do anything wrong.

[madcuriosity]

But now everyone is arguing. I didn't mean to make it an argument.

Re: Video;

[runs_on_batteries]

Yes but that was my reaction to what you said that caused it, not what you said.

I'm sorry you're having to witness all of this. I don't suppose you like brownies, do you?
