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.

Tony, every platform we get ten to thirty new people, and just as many people leave. I don't know about the election, because I was ... with the conductor, or whatever it is people are calling it nowadays. But people are arriving who have no idea it ever took place, and the guys who voted are leaving just as fast as the ones who didn't. You can't just sit back and rest on it.

Do you not believe the hundred people who were here to not pick good people to represent them? We're doing the best we can with the tools we have. We can't have an election every month nor would that make sense when they don't know the people here to vote for them.

What we need is people like you to back us up and help generate some trust that this system is meant to be fair and helpful. It's been used by good people who you know have the well being of the people aboard at heart. You know me, Lightning. You can ask others, I did everything I could to make that election fair and just. I'm working to continue to do things that will benefit everyone and not abuse the power I've been given. I have no other motivation here. You have my word on that.

And I'm sorry you were gone. You were an asset on the council before.

Believe me, if I wasn't backing you, you'd know about it. [ She smiles, the expression twisted with challenge, and then it softens, and she sighs. ]

I'm not questioning the election, you know. I've heard nothing but good things. I'm saying that an open meeting wouldn't hurt. One that people can see, even if they can't speak up. Let 'em see you working for them.

[He breathes a laugh at that and nods. Yeah, he believes that whole-heartedly!

The rest, he takes a moment to mull it over.]

Do you see it as possible to keep people from interrupting? What do you propose is the best way to have them see the meeting?

Honestly? Like a talkshow. Let people in if they want, sit yourselves somewhere visible. Take breaks for questions or points, but tell 'em to keep it down otherwise.

[ she's been thinking about this a bit in the last half hour, apparently. ]

If people interrupt, send them out... if they're just doing it to disrupt you, anyway.

Let me think that over.
