[Haise has talked with several teammates about the lack of cohesion, and how difficult it is for all of them to coordinate. It was something he'd meant to discuss, or perhaps encourage others better suited, to bring up when they had some down-time. In the wake of a rather heated debate he chose to sat out on, he thinks maybe conversations about how they unify can't wait]
It seems that some of us may be feeling a little hot under the collar after recent events. Since I am an advocate for mercy, and am only alive because as much was extended to me when others may have argued against it, I don't want to touch on moral disagreements. Our stances will naturally differ, because our organization doesn't give us any unifying principles to abide by.
As a member of the CCG, I had very set guidelines to follow. Those weren't all things I agreed with, or felt right about. But they did maintain order, and did keep people safe. They made us an effective team, and more than once it's come up with colleagues here that we might benefit from that.
This was something I'd hoped might come up on Oska, when people had time to relax, but considering the circumstances...
Would any of you be interested in opening that discussion? That is, talking about our backgrounds, where we're coming from, and what we believe. If we start there, surely we can find a way to work together. If we're constantly at odds with one another, that isn't good for anyone. When I first joined, that division was certainly in place, but those I disagreed with still took the time to speak with me, and we did have common ground. I'd like to suggest that, as a team, we try to find that...for all our sakes.
Edit: Although I spoke of my own background in the example I provided, by no means am I suggesting that everyone do the same. Most importantly, we need to establish where we stand on issues we're often confronted with in our line of work. These things would inevitably show in our actions, so speaking on personal matters is not necessary for discussion.
What each of us believes and what course we're inclined to take is what I mean to inquire about.

Unless you mean about posting. If that's the case, then no, I'm grateful for the discussion.

In that case, let's see here...
Typically an investigator at my level would be assigned to work with one from the junior ranks. However, I was assigned to four because of a procedure they had undergone to become more effective fighters. You could say its basis was my own ability, so I was deemed best equipped to help them.
At the start, one followed me around like a duckling and listened to my guidance, another had difficulties coping and stayed in her room much of the time, and the other two competed with each other for who could barrel into danger soonest. It was...interesting, trying to wrangle them, at first. I'd had no experience with subordinates.

heh, i've got a kid brother. sounds pretty familiar from here.
how long were you with 'em?
no subject
Over a year, before I was brought to this place. We were right in the middle of a large-scale operation, so admittedly, I worry about them.
What's your brother like?
no subject
you probably know him, name's papyrus. n' if you don't, he's about the best guy you could ever hope to meet. objective fact, not opinion.
no subject
[Which is to say, yes, he knows him.
And he'll keep right on calling him Great Papyrus, just as he keeps getting called Haise Sasaki in full]
So I take it you're a skeleton as well?
no subject
[See? Long-con. As in, now his jokes actually make sense. Long-con.]
just got back from reassignment. y'know, i remember this team being a lot more buddy buddy last time around.
[He doesn't remember that. In fact, Sans was never hear before at all. It's a shot in the dark, but he's willing to bet anything was buddy buddy compared to all of this fighting.]
no subject
People have been pretty heavily divided since I first got here... I want to think that they were better at discussing it, but I get the feeling I was just lucky I was in after the debate had already been settled.
[Unfortunate, that. And so many of those people are gone besides.
He remembers just how many people he's seen come and go... And Sieglinde had seen yet more]
no subject
y'know, no offense.

As I've seen you say elsewhere in this discussion, it really is the case that there isn't a true sense of black and white. I'd argue it's more black and grey, at this point. Much as I'd like to think that there's a right way, and that we'll come upon it, my missions back home weren't ever so idyllic. Not to mention, we have no way to be certain of the outcome until we see it for ourselves.

We'll have to make do with what we've got.
