[Voice] Roll Call
Fuck this. I'm tired of waiting for those damn bastards to get their act together. It's not going to happen.
I need everyone's attention. And I mean everyone.
Those Initiative bastards are continuously dragging people, us, to fight in their failure of a war. We hardly have a choice in the matter, and the entire situation is just sick and wrong. But the worst of it is that they're dragging in anyone they can grab. Not all of us can hold a sword or throw fireballs at our enemies and yet they're supposed to be able to defend themselves.
And before any of you get started, this isn't some kind of rebellion.
What I'm proposing is that we get our own act together and organize. Which is why everyone needs to listen to this. If you prefer to be difficult? Fine. I'll be knocking on doors anyways.
First, we need to know who can fight and who can't. DO NOT play hero because you saying you can and want to help others when you actually can't is going to get both you and the person who should have been defending you killed. So be honest.
And if you can fight it'd be nice to know how you can pull that off. In my own case, I'm a mage. I can use both offensive and defensive spells, but I need someone to watch my back and keep the enemies busy while I cast my spells. The idea is to get evenly matched teams so when we're thrown into a battlefield in the middle of our sleep three or seven or whenever nights from now, we'll be able to organize ourselves and survive.
[Taking in a deep breath, she's getting so worked up! She needs a moment, okay.]
I can't organize this on my own and I shouldn't even have to. If you think you can help gather answers from others, do it. Let's not keep making these same damn mistakes.
[A long pause and then...]
... Thanks.
[OOC: Okay. I'm making a spreadsheet for everything that will act as both an OOC reference and an IC reference for organizing actual battle parties. I'm hoping to have the spreadsheet basics done by tomorrow and I'll post that on the OOC comm then (it's a Google doc/spreadsheet). The way the spreadsheet will work is going to do with numbers 1-10 on ability (-numbers meaning a threat, 1 meaning defenseless, 10 meaning you're god in a bottle), list of types, and so on. Details on that OOC post tomorrow. BUT IC responses will also be useful! Because Fiona really will be knocking on doors. And it may help me get a basis to better shape the spreadsheet. IC wise, no need for numbers. That's just weird.]

If you actually can say you know what you're doing then fine. I brought this up because no one else even considered it.
But tell me this, if you didn't bring it up before, and there were plenty of times when you could, why do you think I should even expect you to successfully carry on with this?

[SHE'S INSULTED OMG.]
If you are able to look back and see all the previous announcements I have made, you will find that I have brought up similar ideas to this many a time. Unfortunately, certain events had made it nigh impossible for me to gather my thoughts in order to properly organise such a list. I had been hoping for an official gathering.

But. Then again, I wouldn't really know. Would I?
no subject
No. I highly doubt you would.

Well I do hope this little role call of yours gets the attention it deserves. I look forward to seeing the final product.

Typical.
