VIDEO / USERNAME: LEVI

[powerdriven]

[ with his wrist raised to grant the magic bracelet a view of his stern face, the backdrop of his makeshift stable in the outskirts, it's apparent that Levi hasn't gone to any special preparations to make this announcement. however, he also hasn't wasted any time between the offer of Arthur's and now to corral ALASTAIR attention of his own. they've waited long enough. ]

The Order of the Chimera would have us plan a jailbreak for tomorrow.

And keen as I'm not on caving to the demands of terrorists, unlike that disaster in the streets a few weeks ago, this time we have the foresight to organize ourselves. I know some of you have your doubts. But whether or not we're helping those fools out in the process, where I'm concerned, we can't leave our people hanging in the balance.

So while the rest of you figure out how to deal with Michel, I say we combine our efforts.

[ simultaneous operations or otherwise, their downfall is being uninformed or unprepared for each others' movements. and while it may not be clear, due to a number of circumstances in which he's seen some less than reputable behavior among recruits... ] Our success hinges on snipping every loose thread.

To account for that, our most suitable people should lead the operation. But don't take it personally. Organized into squads, we can draw on all of our recruits' unique strengths. That includes you rookies.

I know the lot of you may not be so bent on following orders willy nilly, but be reasonable. We'll receive no higher guidance with ALASTAIR leaving us to our own devices, and we've got better chances in a team willing to ally themselves with loyalty than in a disjointed mob of lone wolves. Take heed to the fact that your cooperation with each other will determine the fate of our teammates' lives.

[ now then. with that out of the way, the next matter at hand is the allocation of these squads. ]

Riza. Pearl. Lend me a hand, will you? [ this is his way of saying he deems you two "suitable." ]

The rest of you: a basic rundown of your abilities would be of help. I'm not gonna force your hand, but we need to sort ourselves out somehow.

[ and considering the influx of new recruits as well as the existence of those he's yet to meet: ] My name's Levi. I'll be working to man the assault. If those two agree to it, they'll help me manage you lot, so speak up to one of us if you need something.


( ooc; this is an IC plotting/organization post for jailbreak shenanigans! threadjacking and posting your own threads is welcome and encouraged.

the squads will be focused on support (pearl) and assault (levi & riza) but it is up to you and your characters which you want to join up with. we could also really use some coordination efforts. that said, you're free to make your own, be a rebel and not help at all, or anything else you can think of. go wild. c: )

voice; un: hawkeye; liz i'm crying

[strictdiscipline]

I'd appreciate if you could elaborate on 'amazing.'

[AKA she's calling bullshit.]

i can't help you with that i'm sorry

[heavyhitter]

[ you don't like her resume?? sad ]

I'm really, really good at arm wrestling and totally stab-proof.

why the hell did i text that if it was voice.....omg

[strictdiscipline]

[This is the sound of a woman who's questioning every word you say, Ana.]

Stab-proof.

her incredulity broke the sound barrier and transcended into text, obviously

[heavyhitter]

Yep! Wanna try it?

obviously

[strictdiscipline]

I'd prefer not.

[Is her irritation coming through because she's clearly irritated right now.]

What offensive skills do you have apart from arm wrestling?

[heavyhitter]

Okay, for real now: I'm super fucking strong and nothing can hurt me. [ she's not sure if that's true, but she'll go with it ] So, you know, I'm pretty invincible.

[strictdiscipline]

And you've put that to the test?

[It's not that she's still completely disbelieving - not after what she's seen - she just wants to make sure she's not throwing some person out there to die.]

[heavyhitter]

Hell yeah. You think I'd make this shit up just to hear myself talk?

[ ...she's done some testing, that has to count for something ]

[strictdiscipline]

[To be quite honest? Yes.]

We'll probably place you on the front lines then, unless you have any objections?

un: coolskeleton95, voice: annoying sounding

[boneafide]

HELLO!

It's alright, Hawkeye! I have known Taranto for about ten minutes and I can vouch that she is, in fact, pretty much amazing in every way!

[heavyhitter]

Yeah! Yeah, see, the Bones Man is on my side. That's a pretty good endorsement, a living skeleton has probably seen some serious shit in his time.

[boneafide]

It's "Coolskeleton", Taranto. "Chillbonedude" is my brother.

[heavyhitter]

Wait, you have a brother? Is he a skeleton too?

[boneafide]

Of course! What else would he be? A snail?

... He does share a lot of traits with a snail...

[heavyhitter]

That's so weird that it crosses over back into great. What's his name?

[boneafide]

Sans. You'll know him when you see him. He's small and round. Like a snail! Sometimes he's slimey. Also like a snail!

ANNOYING-SOUNDING omfg

[strictdiscipline]

[TEN WHOLE MINUTES incredible. Sorry not sorry if she doesn't believe you at all, mysterious annoying-sounding stranger.]

Somehow I doubt ten minutes is enough time to get to know a person's every skill.

[boneafide]

[ Just imagine Skeletor's cheerful cousin. ]

I don't need to know her every skill to know she's incredibly talented and able to offer a lot to our rescue mission!

[strictdiscipline]

[Did she hire you to be her own personal cheerleader or something, what is this. Seriously, ten whole minutes???]

Very well. What can she offer to this mission?

[Please, enlighten her.]

[boneafide]

[ And, following Ramir's instruction: ]

Good fists and a great butt!!

[heavyhitter]

[ somewhere out there ramir is furiously thumbs-uping a piece of jewelry ]

[strictdiscipline]

[A great....you know what, she's going to pretend she didn't hear that part.]

So she's a talented fighter then.

[boneafide]

Very! And she has a high tolerance for annoying things!

[ He meant the fact she could ignore the fairies pulling her hair, but... maybe also his voice. ]

[heavyhitter]

Papyrus! [ this whispering is probably the least subtle thing of today ] Say good fists and a great butt!

[boneafide]

Right, right! Okay!
