[Gladio appears on the ICP and starts things off with a laugh.[

So I guess I was nominated for this council thing, and doing one of these is the done thing. Personally I'd prefer meeting in person but... [He gives a shrug] This way reaches more people.

For anyone who doesn't know me, my name's Gladio Amicitia. Gladio is fine. A member of Blue Team.

I think I'm supposed to list my accomplishments and leadership qualities, right? [More laughing, a bigger grin.] I'm just me!

Back home I was known as a Shield to the King, or Prince, at the time. King later... An office of the Crownsguard. I'm military trained. I'm trained to protect. Since coming here none of that seems to matter. Who I was back then doesn't matter. Who I am now does.

And who I am now is a man who wants to do his best by the people on this train. Whatever skills I have, if I can use them to do good, to protect the people here, I will. To the best of my abilities.

What that means? Got no idea till it happens! Just know my actions will always have the interests of the people at heart, it's what a Shield does, after all.

Anyway... I'm an open book. So ask me anything.

And you don't think it would've made me sound like a pompous ass if I'd said that? Out loud. To over a hundred people?

[Rolls his eyes, but his smile is tender]

Sure, sure.

[bethereprompto]

Uh... Okay, good point, but everyone should still hear it. ARE YOU LISTENING TRAIN??? He's AWESOME!

[callmegladio]

[He didn't near choke laughing, you're seeing things!]

Lower the volume, love. People might be sleeping still!

And this is a serious thing. I don't think people are voting based on awesome rating.

... Could be wrong though.

It's called a 'shout out' for a reason, Big Guy. People don't 'whisper out'. What criteria should we be using? You're way qualified and you're awesome. You and Glorfindel are like the obvious choices. Although Dread and Minako are really cool too.

Did you see someone put a dog and one of those creepy penguins on the list?

[callmegladio]

A shout out, huh? I guess there's that. And those are all good people. Much better I'd think...

I saw. It takes all sorts.

[bethereprompto]

Yeah, but no one is better than you. And if you say otherwise, I'll make you regret it!

[callmegladio]

[He grins.]

I love you.

[bethereprompto]

I love you too.

[He blows a kiss. With one more smile, he turns the ICP off.]
