[Video - for once...]
[She’ll tap the tablet VERY loudly for a while. If anyone asks it’s because she’s not used to using the video function, but really it’s just to get others’ attention.
AHEM.]
In a few days we will be having our second defense meeting. I realize they have dragged in several new people and I would say welcome but I highly doubt everyone feels that way.
For those new, however, I’m certain you’ve discovered the issues some may have with the Initiative. I’ll be honest when I say they could hardly give a damn about us. We are weapons to them and nothing more. Although there have been some improvements in their leadership they still leave us on the battlefields to fend for ourselves with little guidance and with little warning beforehand.
In the past months our issues have been with organizing ourselves into a unified force. We are here whether we like it or not, the more we fight the issue the less likely we will survive.
This defense group is meant to be our unification, it will defend those who cannot defend themselves and provide a more tactical offense.
I encourage you to join us and just see what this group is capable of doing. I don’t expect everyone to agree with any unification but I hope most will understand its necessity to at least try and do so. We may not agree with our predicament but there is little to fight otherwise.
The second defense meeting will be held just outside of the botanical gardens, we’ll be starting in the early morning on… [Stupid earth calendars, have a pause] Saturday.
Thank you and I hope you consider coming.
[There’s a long pause. And. Oh. Almost forgot.] And… I’ll try and answer any questions that others may have, concerning the meeting or otherwise. For the moment I am leading it, but there will be a nomination and vote come the third meeting of which I hope everyone who is able attends. At that time we will be deciding which people are suitable to lead smaller groups and should that go well, an overall leader will be decided come a later time.
[OOC: Here are all the OOC deets and guide to scheduling - Or a better explanation than Fiona's. HAH. THANKS GUYS YOU ARE FABULOUS.]

I'm in.

I'm assuming you have no questions, then?

This place is an utter mess, none of my friends or family know me, and I keep being called to account for things I haven't done.
I want to help this place and go home. And you want to help these people. It's only right to join up with you, isn't it?

It might be easier for people to ask questions if you give your name, my lady Fiona. [Someone's kind of cheeky today.]
[PERMAVIDEO]
But I appreciate your offer, my lord.

Do you expect many more this time?

Hi, I'm new here. I just want to say I like what you're trying to pull together, and you can definitely expect me at the defense meeting.

Do you understand the importance for a meeting like this then?
no subject
Yes, I think I've got it all right. You want to enforce organisation, order, and discipline, and I would think some sort of training regime. It's not exactly a difficult concept to grasp.
What I'm surprised at is that there's no such system already in place. How long have people been here at the whim of this Initiative?

It's a meeting for those seeking to unify or organize our efforts. The current purpose is to choose leaders and get to know and understand each others' capabilities. Since everyone is coming from different worlds, previous accomplishments or statuses mean nothing here, we would have to judge leaders and the division of any groups on what we see with our own eyes here and now.
Does that help answer your question at all?
