(no subject)

hey! a while back at the beginning of the month i talked about getting people together to start forming a training coalition/volunteer crisis response team or whatever (this thing) and then this whole month went completely stupid as usual.
so anyway i still want to do that! i know everybody who replied thought it was a good idea and i am hoping to do the first meeting maybe in the first or second week of may and we just hope that the city is a lot less annoying next month.

maybe may 6th or something?

until then if you did not talk to me about this already and you're interested in training and organizing and being part of a crisis response team let me know.

if you already did, do me a favor and fill out the following so i can sort everybody? that would be helpful.

I need a crisis response group for my crisis response group... Assuming I make it back alive-

Name: Arisato
Age: 22
Date you received the Retrospec app: November
Abilities: offensive elementals, healing, assorted weaponry, assisted flight
Other skills/strengths:
Do you work well with big groups or small groups: Small. 2-3 people max.
Other notes: I work best with people who can hold their own in a fight, and can take direction. But I'm flexible, so you can group me wherever.

can you maybe kind of make sure you make it back alive? i happen to like you and also you have something incredibly important of mine.
what does assisted flight mean in this case?
we can see who signs up and work on getting you a few partners you can swap between.
leadership abilities are pretty good, minato. i'll keep that in mind.

Your pants? Or do you mean Dave? Maybe I want to keep both and won't come back.
Assisted flight's like dragons and large birds and stuff. The same stuff Souji can do, if you've seen his.
That'll work out for the best. Having a variety of people and skills to choose from, depending on who fits the situation best.

ok i can accept you eloping with my boyfriend but i really liked those pants.
i haven't really paid attention to souji's stuff. but like what happened in the swamp with us and james and lalli, right?
that is really what i am hoping for for all of us. i think having one partner is great but i think as a failsafe multiples will be good.
isn't the saying safety in numbers?

I'll give your boyfriend back if you let me keep the pants.
Yeah, that's it. Bird's easier to ride on, though. More compact, easier to maneuver.
With more numbers, it's harder to look after everybody and optimally coordinate. There's pros and cons.

you might need to bargain with him about that.
can i see the bird when you get back? i am just curious.
i know. that's why i want to see who is interested, what groups i can organize, do sub-categories. my team back in my memories was only a max of four people, but there were a lot more of us involved in everything. different parts, stuff like that.

I'll do my best.
If you want. It's a sun bird, so if you stare too long at it, you might go blind, just fyi.
Were you the leader of your team?

i am already kind of blind, minato. glasses, remember?
and yes! i was even if i do not think i wanted to be. but it worked out. maybe that's why i feel like i have to do this.

Yes, and let's preserve what's left.
Maybe you want to do this because you care about the city, not simply out of some obligation. You can give yourself that much credit.

fine, fine.
...yeah. i'm actually kind of worried about how things are gonna go. we lived past my birthday which is better than usual but i am not sure that things are going to stay the same for too long. so i would rather we all be ready for whatever.

Birthdays are a good benchmark for survival. Dave told me a little more about the intractable cancer and stuff. If something to that scale and severity happens here, do you think we'd be able to handle that?

yeah, our last universe was pretty doomed.
and i do not know if we could handle it yet, but i feel like we could if we were all working toward the same goal instead of scattered like we have been.

Yeah. Feels a lot like taking care of ourselves and those closest to us, rather than moving together as a city. With you at the forefront, I have high hopes it'll work out. Guess I'll see in a week or two when we all meet up.

exactly.
but thanks minato. that actually means a lot.
and if it doesn't then we just keep trying.
that is all we can do.
