PRIORITY BROADCAST ‡ VIDEO
[so, did you forget your Links could have something labeled as 'Priority'? it's admin Firstforged only. either way, have a Prime.
have a Vector Prime, looking somber]
Many of you have expressed the desire to create some sort of force to enforce a set of laws. I have been granted permission to speak on behalf of my fellows on this matter. While we will let you maintain it by yourselves...so long as you function within our Haven, we do have our own conditions which must be met for such a force to exist.
[he pauses a moment, golden optics blinking once, then continues]
First and foremost, whatever laws you intend on enforcing, we must approve.
Second, it has been agreed that we will not allow an authority over our Refugees, without one such in that authority. In other words, whatever force you create must have one Marked from each of our number. If a representative is missing, then you will not have the right to act against them.
[there's a glint in his optics. one that's...warning.]
I would not suggest attempting to enforce your laws without that right.
[another pause, and then that glint passes]
Thirdly, any punishment must be authorized by the Firstforged to whom the transgressor belongs. You may detain, but anything beyond that, we must approve.
Now...should these conditions be met, we are willing to offer some of our own Acolytes to assist you in your work. We are also willing to do our own part - to listen, and to act, when matters have been brought to our attention. And, if a matter comes that is too large for you to handle by yourselves - to take it in to our own hands.
I will be serving as the primary liaison to whatever force is created. [he straightens, a bit - which, considering he was already at full posture, is saying something] As such, I will expect contact by the group once its membership is finalized.
[a thin smile...and a tilt of the head]
I look forwards to it.

Were you still serving as a leader to this project?

voice;
As you so protected us from Prism, and his experiments.
A robot who claims he has no trust in me has been more help in dealing with that matter than any of you. Why should we listen to what you say?

If Duke ever shows up, you two are going to get along really well.

... Duke?
voice;
He came along later than me.
voice;
[WHILE BITTY. Or waiting to be bitty.]
So many of you.
voice;
Not really. Hmm, that's nine, including you?
voice;
That's a lot.
voice;
That'll disappoint Yuuta.
voice;
[At least it's voice, so the wince isn't visible.]
... I only told him I would consider it.
voice;
You can be by yourself or you can join us. No one's telling you to do anything, all right? [He knows the feeling of wanting oneself's own freedom. He does.]
voice;
... All right. There's time, though, to think on this.
[What Would Shadowmaru Do?]
voice;
There's always time.
voice;
... For some of us, yes.

when he responds, it's not cold. it's not angry, or annoyed. it's...quiet.]
I regret Prism was not stopped sooner. I make no excuse for why he was allowed to continue for so long.
[and that's...actual regret there.]
It is my earnest hope that such a thing will be stopped from happening again. And I believe that this can - that whatever force is made will fulfill that hope.
voice;
[Kagerou starts out quiet as well. Just like always. But as he speaks, his voice gains strength. And heat. He's trying his best to remain calm, to speak without snapping at this stranger.]
[But there are very real nerves hit here, and he can't keep himself fully restrained.]
He went through my memories. It means nothing to someone like you -- to any like you. But my memories are my self. Everything I am.
He could have done whatever he pleased to them, and to me. And none of you did anything. Instead, I had to be assisted by someone else.
They locked him up. They kept him from harming anyone else. Why would you want to stop them? What does it matter who belongs to who, so long as no one else's existence is threatened like I was? Like Drift? Like anyone else that thing could have touched!
Your hope means very little to me. Their action means far more.
[... that was probably the most he's spoken since he arrived.]
voice;
If their action is what you believe in.
Then would it not be best for them to be allowed to take action?
We do not wish to constrain. We wish to create a place in which you, or anyone else, will not have to worry about such a dark act to threaten your self. With supervision, yes, but- ultimately, the choice to look at your fellow Refugee and say 'this one has wronged me, this is what he has done, let us punish him so that they may learn never to do so again'...
...is that not a worthwhile thing?
voice;
If one faction is missing, then we aren't allowed to say 'this one has wronged me, this is what he has done, let us punish him so that they may learn never to do so again'. They will get away, and they will keep doing as they see fit.
It is worthwhile... but not in the terms you want.
voice;
Otherwise, they go without a voice. And while they perhaps may not deserve one...
...I am told of a force like this being corrupted. Of those in power abusing their position. Can you tell me that there has never been a time when one has been accused, unjustly...?
voice;
...
I can't answer that. One way or another.
[He never had a chance to find out. He lived in a closed environment. He can't even say the Brave Police were totally in the wrong -- not after talking to Yuuta so much.]
voice;
voice;
That... should be what happens. Never release him. Never allow him to put his hands on anyone again.
voice;
[he's gentle, because...there /is/ a faint note of sympathy there, of empathy, but that's not the question he asked.]
voice;
[... and still...]
What would I do?
... Lock them away, keep them away, where they can't hurt anyone. Hold them all to the same laws, regardless of their representation.
That's fair, isn't it?
