[Yu is all business as soon as the feed starts, his expression and tone very measured.]

It seems I'm not the only one who was contacted for "sentencing," so I'd like to pool our information. I was contacted by someone named "Jerry" and told to go to City Hall. How many others received a similar order? I know it wasn't everyone, but maybe we can get an accurate count. Were you asked to meet with the same person, or someone different?

If anyone else feels comfortable sharing what their "sentence" was, that could also be useful. Mine was to investigate people I'm close to for evidence of crimes. 

[His tone is carefully neutral, but he doesn't seem thrilled about that. Loyalty... he still doesn't see any way to consider it a crime. Now he's being asked to atone for something like that?

... Anyway. What else does he need to add? He thinks about it for a moment, frowning softly, and then adds:]

Last thing. Does anyone who was summoned remember what happened inside the building?

Comments

[izanagis]

A "step" toward that, at least.

["A step" out of how many? They don't have any more information than that. After a pause:]

Did he give you any indication of what happens if you don't do it?

[rebellions]

Not really.

[ But he's not exactly eager to go out of his way to do as he was told, so... ]

Guess we'll have to wait and find out, huh?

[izanagis]

You're planning to skip out, too?

["Too." They can be delinquents together!]

[rebellions]

I'm not big on following orders, least of all when they're coming from some weirdo cult I don't even remember all that well.

[ What's the worst they can do? Kill him? That'd be kind of hilarious, actually. ]

[izanagis]

Understandable. I'll look forward to facing the consequences along with you.

[Fight the power, etc etc]

My name's Yu Narukami, by the way. Nice to meet you.

[rebellions]

They can take their consequences and shove them up their asses.

[ He's not planning on taking any possible punishment lying down. ]

... Ragna the Bloodedge.

[izanagis]

[A soft laugh. Whatever happens, he admires Ragna's spirit.]

I can't say my feelings are much different. [These guys suck.]

[rebellions]

Guess I'll see you in the time-out corner, then.

[ Or whatever form the "punishment" for not following the Council's orders may take. ]

[izanagis]

It's a date. See you there.

[This will definitely be Fine.]
