VIDEO / USERNAME: LEVI

[ 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: )

Well they can probably jump a little bit if they really try! And if they have a soul! I can only use it on things with souls. So not a baseball at all. That's why I said imagine.

clearly they were meant to be

[Okay, this is just getting more and more confusing now.]

I don't suppose you could be more clear in your explanation?

Let me think... of the best way to say this...

A thing with a soul can be stopped from free-movement, if turned blue.

Get it now?

[Yes, but she's also apparently used up her call-a-friend lifeline on this question.]

So your powers influence the effect of gravity of others. [What a strange power....But handy in certain situations, no doubt.] Can you use it on only one subject at at time or multiple?

Yes, you've got it!!!

[Thanks to Sans, which he doesn't see happening.]

That's a good question! I've never tried it on more than one at a time... I'll try it next time!

Do you have to be within close-range of people [things?] in order to use your magic?

[personal profile] boneafide 2015-12-05 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I have to be close enough that I can jump over them. Which is about four of me lying down.

[this is a very papyrus unit of measure.]

[She......sees......maybe.]

Alright. Will you be able to defend yourself if we place you in the close-range combat squad?

[So much enthusiasm.....]

Alright, Captain Levi will give you further instructions then.

[ enthusiasm is basically his middle name. ]

YOU CAN'T SEE IT RIGHT NOW, BUT I'M SALUTING!

Thank you!
