OTA TEXT | SO WHERE Y'ALL AT????

[crudest]

[sometime on the third, all the names of people who were sent on group missions (obviously au names only) will be released onto the network for IC knowledge. everyone will be able to see this post if they glance at the network, whether they're in the city or away on groups!

however annotated next to the groups will be the information that group one is going to pesgare, group two is going to respartum, group three is going to bosuma, and group four is going to magatus.]

if you didn't get a call to arms here's the copypasta:

How would you like to help us help you out? Your observation period's up and I want you on this particular assignment. You'll be fine, you're probably not going to die, and we'll be able to monitor you from here. We need help. You've got the skills needed even if you don't know it yet. I know it and that's what counts.

You'll be working with a group (wish I could give you the names, still putting the lists together), but your assignment partner is [INSERT RANDO HERE]. Should you choose to accept this assignment, you will need to meet at the [LOCATION] and we'll go from there.

You'll be rewarded for your success, of course, but this is only if we have an agreement. Do we have an agreement?

hard to do work when you don't have info right
carly's more useful than expected
but he said don't get distracted

anyway
the more you know and all that

[and that's the message!]

[ OOC: please use this as an open mingle for whatever purposes you need! unless directly addressed, baren won't be responding. he just bugged carly for info and shared it. if any adjustments need to be made, lmk!

edit: almost immediately after the initial post goes up, Matt Murdock's name will be edited out into black squares. ]

In this case, yes.
The rules of reality may be bending, but that doesn't change people.

[crudest]

are you saying beating up shitheads is a bad thing

[cattack]

Yes.
Acting when you are in the right time and place is good.
But being a vigilante and going around looking for fights is illegal for a reason.

[crudest]

then it sounds like some people aren't doing their jobs
if it's still dangerous out there
not that i expect law enforcement to catch every shithead
but what's wrong with knocking out the ones that fall between the cracks?
isn't that still keeping people safe?
or
maybe he thinks the system of justice here is flawed
you know all major crime disappeared a couple decades ago?
that doesn't bother you?

look you sound like you've got a lot of things you're really in denial about
maybe it's not his personal mantra you should be criticizing

[cattack]

I don't know why you're so accusatory about this.
Do you know the first rule of helping someone who is drowning?
"Don't add to the victims".
Law enforcement exists because this is dangerous, and someone without proper training, backup, and resources is putting themselves and others at risk.
It's not as though we don't want all the criminals caught.
But we don't want innocents to be harmed in the process.

Of course it bothers me.
But I know of some major crimes from a couple of decades ago that are worth investigating regardless.

[crudest]

the only thing i'm accusing you of is denial
and being kinda judgey

anyway this guy is fine
he was sitting in the bus?
i don't think he's going to fucking drown or the equivalent of your metaphor
if he gets hurt it's his own fault
but there's no point in stamping down someone's convictions

what's the alternative
he joins the police force he clearly doesn't believe in?

also
i was making a different point about the lack of crime
whatever we'll stick to one thing at a time

[cattack]

If he gets hurt, he'll become a liability.
Also, just because it will be his own fault, doesn't mean I want to see him hurt.

If he doesn't believe in the police force, that's all the more reason to join and make it something he can believe in.

What was your point?

[crudest]

so do you expect to be able to control everyone you don't agree with

that's naive
and also trying to control this person

the lack of crime is weird
in a city this big?
for this long?
weird

anyway
i'm getting tired of talking in circles
you might have to accept that your acquaintance likes to dress up and step on shitheads
or reexamine why you think that makes him a bad person
i don't really care

to go back to your original question so i can leave this alone
there were 28 names on group 4
there were 28 people on the bus
last time this happened certain areas were restricted to only those invited
like a whole magical wall blocking other people out deal
draw your own conclusions

[cattack]

Fine.
I'm done talking to you.
I'll prove it myself.
