After Seth got his food, Jalil stepped into stride with him. Jalil- "Mr. President."
Seth- "Oh! Hey Jalil, wild party huh?"
Jalil- "Dude, it was bomb. Hella bomb."
Seth- "Haha, I'm guessin' since you're still here! Hey speakin' of that, maybe you can come to the meeting in a bit. Not that I wanna inflict that on anyone, but might be useful."
Jalil- "Oh, yeah. I figured that was about today. I sent Mamo back to let my people know I'm cool and what I'm up to. I was gonna hit you up about it, but it can wait, what, twenty minutes?"
Seth- "Oh sure, you can bring your food to the meeting too, lord knows you'll have time to finish it there. Well, when we got shit to do sometimes I can get them to hurry it a bit. You guys got a council over there?"
Jalil- "Not really. When something big is going on, we just put out word and anyone who's interested can be in the room. It's frustrating because old folks talk slow, but it helps everyone feel better - like they had a say. Most people don't even bother to show up these days.... How does your thing work over here?"
Seth- "Yeah it pretends to be more organized than that, but it's not far off. Started pretty small with my 'cabinet' or whatever, keep getting more people there as things go. I guess it's good, get different expertise, but yeah... slow talkers. That's funny, we're both in the same job as Edgar Pan. That's messed up, hahaha."
Jalil- "Real recognize real. Hahaaha! Hooo... Yeah."

Whenever people are ready, check in at your meeting spots: Alex and Micah on the Patio, Ashley and Patti in Marie's Room. Gillsing and any random passers-by that would like something to do, drop me a line. Otherwise, chill. It's the beginning of what will no doubt be over a week of madness (of course, only a day in game time)...

Cathleen came lurking into the Comm Center. Cathleen- "Hello world." Comm Center cast Judeo. 9,999 damage. Judy- "Hey, where didja sleep last night, Cee-cee?"
Cathleen- "No one. I mean nowhere."
Judy- "Uh-huh, anyway, guess what we're doing today? Guess!"
Cathleen- "Do I have to?" And so on!

Ben turned up for breakfast on his crutches, and made it to the wall to read the messages. Another council meeting? He grabbed himself some breakfast to go, and put it in a large paper cup that he could carry with him to Marie's place.

Jalil and Seth made their way down the hall. Sarah made a point of not looking at Jalil that morning because she totally didn't have anything to do with him staying over last night, haha... yeah. Sarah- "*whistledy-doo*"

Seth, Jalil, Davin, Ashley, and Ben entered the Comm Center and headed to the equipment cabinets. The men pondered bringing guns. Last time, they brought weapons, and left them in a planter nearby so they could approach unarmed, and grab weapons while retreating, if necessary. Joe thought they should bring handguns. Davin decided to go for it. Jalil just pulled up his jacket to show he had one of his own. Seth considered it. Davin- "So we leave our weapons close by and pick 'em up on the way out again, right?"
Seth- "Man, doesn't it seem like a bit of a waste of time? What's gonna happen that's gonna let us go outside, pick up our guns, and blast on fools?"
Jalil- "I see your point, but haven't you ever seen 'A Better Tomorrow'? It's early John Woo and it's pretty convincing."
Seth- "Oh well, I guess if we don't use them while we're there, we can just shoot some pigeons."
Jalil- "See, John Woo wouldn't be into that, because the pigeons in his movies symbolize God's grace."
Davin- "Jesus H Christ."
Jalil- "Or Allah if you prefer. ;D " The men made their guns less visible and stood around for a bit. Very few people were left in the Comm Center, as there was still a lot of work to do in the neighborhood.

"If you don't want me armed, I can go unarmed." He offers them in a single breath, and indeed does not seem to care either way. He inhales and crosses his arms. He seems both hard to read and anxious at the same time.

Seth- "That's cool man, we'll all be unarmed eventually. Damn, too bad none of us are kung-fu masters or somethin'! Unless... are any of you holding something back from us...?"
Davin- "Nope."
Jalil- "A week of Tae Kwon Do. So same as nothin'."

Ben shook his head. Ben- "All I have is my Kendo practice. Not going to be of much use without a stick and enough space to swing it." Ben didn't think there was much point in bringing guns, but it was probably time for him to get used to handling one.
((Are there enough handguns for everyone? Maybe we brought some from the police station? Also, Ben will return to his apartment before leaving, to leave the crutches and pick up his leather jacket.))
Ed.) Yeah they got tons of guns, just barrels of 'em. We'll transition here shortly and move on to the next scene, with a crutchless be-leathered Ben.

Seth- "Well damn, unless any of us finds our secret inner powers, we'll have to just take these guys on their word that they aren't gonna start shit. We've got the power of our words and minds though, and that's gotta count for something, right?"

Jalil- "One life, man." It looks like everyone is taking a handgun, so Ashley probably should as well...

The men made their guns less visible and stood around for a bit, except Ben, who had a few more preparations to make. They agreed to meet in the alley in twelve minutes or so.
Bryce came through, and wandered over. Bryce- "Jalil was it? I'm Seth's assistant. What's going on today?"
Jalil- "We're just going to pay Edgar Pan a friendly visit."
Bryce- "Hm. Think I heard something about that. Eh... Good luck?"
Seth- "Hey it's that guy. We're headin' out in the name of righteousness and whatnot."
Bryce- "I gathered that." Suddenly, the place got 50% more whitened teethier. Casey- "HellO!"
Seth- "Uh, hey man. We're about to head out..."
Bryce- "For Righteousness."
Casey- "No problem. I just wanted to thank you for the dance last night. It was really magical."
Seth- "Oh yeah, s-sure. Hey well, see ya around man."
Casey- "Seriously. I will never forget it. Not to sound like a creeper, just... you rocked my world. I'll see ya when you get back. "
Bryce- "..." Bryce walked away quickly without saying a word. Casey- "Take care!" Casey jogged away.
Seth took his sunglasses off like the opposite of dealing with it or Horatio making a pun.
Seth- "It had to be when I was hung over, wouldn't it?"
Jalil- "It was a crazy night..." They went to about their business. ((Convene on horrorboys.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=403pt3&action=display&thread=338 ))

In the early afternoon, after the debriefing with Marie, Ben went to the community center to see what was up with everyone else. He was feeling some aches and pains from the fight, but surely nothing that would need medical attention. Or so he hoped anyway. Time would tell.
Due to the warm weather he'd already ditched the leather jacket at his place, and on account of already having been beaten up once that day, he wasn't exactly desperate to get out again before a good night's rest. Ben- "What's cooking?"

Chantelle- "Dinner, man. Back off!"
Stevie- "Haha! What a sourpuss. Have a leftover goose sandwich, my friend..." Stevie had been in the meeting and was in a good mood, since the news was pretty funny - to anyone that hadn't been beaten to retrieve it. He put together a couple of sandwiches and grabbed some chips and a drink.

Ben backed off. Never mess with the people who prepare your food. But also never look a gift horse in the mouth. So Ben graciously accepted Stevie's gift, and got himself some water to go with it. Ben- "Thanks! You're a lifesaver."
