Video - Imagination 15
(Gen - in Purple. | Roland - in Dark Blue.)
[ The ICP flickers to life and in video, two individuals stand side by side. One is stern and still, with heavy eyes and crossed arms. The other with duo-colored hair is smiling, but their gaze is sharp and attentive. The announcement seems to be coming from the Dining car. ]
Good morning, everyone! After a rather … difficult … last mission, it seems that everyone’s scrambling for ideas, and answers. It’s … certainly been in my mind. Some have even called for a change in leadership, which is understandable, but I think might’ve ruffled a few feathers.
I really think that after everything we’ve been through, a fight about who’s running what is the last thing we need.
[ Roland transitions smoothly, with a nod in agreement. ]
Leadership’s always been about action, and in that sense, no one necessarily needs a title to be a leader in their own right. We’re all here to make train life a better place in our own way...so let’s do it. Let’s talk. No more barriers, no more walls. Just everyone who’s ever been interested to say anything about the train, coming together.
How’s the 18th of Imagination, sound? We can do it in the Music Room’s upper floor, so we maximize space.
[ Gen nodded, and added sheepishly: ]
Yes, so - Roland put things a lot better than I could, but he’s been here for a lot longer. But, pretty much, what he said!
Please - everyone, no matter what team, how involved you were in the mission - whether you saw things fall apart for yourself - please come. We’d want to speak to the Team Leads and the Council members, of course, but.
Now isn’t the time for us to bicker over power. We need to work together to find a better way to work - or more people are going to end up getting hurt.
[ Roland’s gaze grows more stern. Like he’s remembering something as he talks. Could just be the catch of the light. ]
There’s a lot we need to discuss either way. As one. Every voice heard, every talent taken into consideration so they’re exactly where they need to be.
[ Shrugging, Gen flourished a little with his hands, and said - ]
Ah! And there’ll be snacks! So even if you’re worried you might not have a great idea … if you’re feeling shy … you can at least come for the food, my friends.
Come for the candy! Stay for the attempts to keep us all from exploding. It’s a win-win!
[ And with that said, the two make their individual salutations - Roland nodding again and Gen waving nicely - before the announcement ends. ]
(OOC: Expect threeways/fourways/whatever-have-you-ways wherever appropriate! The said Open Log will be posted on the 5th of December. This is not a council meeting, but a player-driven initiative :) Come one, come all! Please feel free to throw in stuff OOCly here. )

voice from dressing 1/2
What about-- ah-- [ oh fuck this is public abort ]
action!!!! kind of 2/2
PROPOSAL FOR FOUNDING OF WHITE SQUAD
white armbands obviously
put them on all of the healers or medics or whatever
same deal as black armbands
really obvious if there's no white armbands in a fight
know who to go to if you're
low on hphurtthat's all nice speech guys
[ Action for Roland - ]
... It seems like our friend, Miss Spider, is very shy.
Come take a look at this.
1/2 [ Action - Gen ]
[ He isn't surprised at its appearance at all, and crosses the short distance to read over Gen's shoulder. A quick scan later, and Roland hums, strongly in agreement. ]
Well, would you look at that? [ He finds that his lips naturally draw into a smile. ] This is a great idea. We'd be functioning like real units deployed on the field. [ And who knows - with more talents aboard, it could expand to more roles. Black for emergencies, White for healers... ]
no subject
You mean, like the Red Cross, and all of that? [ Gen tilted his head thoughtfully. ] We'd need a way to protect them if they're going around in battle, helping keep people alive. Using magic, I'll guess, to accomplish that?
no subject
Exactly like that. Except with more potions and spells to make healing a bit more efficient, heh. [ The paper is folded and offered to Gen for safekeeping until the Promised Day! ] Right. That's something to bring up too, I suppose. Personally, if either you or Senku needed the muscle, you just need to come find me or talk to me on the SCA. Don't hesitate.
no subject
[ Or is he? ]
We used the muscle-y members of our team at home to great effect. There were all sorts of things we found for them to do.
no subject
[ Roland makes an amused face, but also, maybe, 1 fear. ]
no subject
[ Such an innocent smile! ]
Before we had a way to generate hydroelectric power, it was instead man-produced energy which charged the dynamo.
There was even a treadmill!
no subject
[ He hates to admit it, but he can actually picture it. It's partly amusing but also partly frightening. Still 1 Fear. What did he put himself up for as their friend willing to do physical activity for them...? ]
Did your dynamo...work well?
[ WILL YOU MAKE ME RUN A TREADMILL TO CHARGE THINGS ]
no subject
[ Gen gave him a more slanted grin, trying a new ploy since Roland looked a little intimidated. ]
Afraid of working up a bit of a sweat, my friend?
2/2 [ Video - Kumoko ]
Message well-received. I'll speak on your behalf, don't worry. Thank you. This is really brilliant.
[ That's his Spider Seamstress wife! ]
