Before you new kids ask, no I'm not one of the people that captured you, no I can't let you go, yes I'll answer any questions I can if I feel it's safe to divulge that information. Please keep the death threats to a minimum since you'll just be wasting your breath, it's unlikely I'll be missed.

...there.



Hey kiddos. I got a job offer for you.

Remember those intruders some of you stuck it to a few months back? Well, I'm sure this comes as no surprise but the general public is having a bit of trouble with them as well, and have been for...hm. Quite some time.

Seems like your captors may have wised up, but I think they need a little reassurance. They can be such finicky things after all, and even with all the talk going about among employees about how darn good you all are, they're still wary about letting you out of your cage. Really, once bitten and twice shy, but only if you're an animal. Silly things.

But enough about the Organization.

Kids! How would you like to work out a little aggression? Bet I could get some of you some first-class accommodations in exchange for just a little bit of battle and danger. Though I suppose some of you would like that, wouldn't you?

Why should we do anything for you?

[malnosso]

This really isn't for my benefit, handsome.

[sortabeautiful.livejournal.com]

You are holding us prisoner. Nothing you do seems to really be for our benefit.

[malnosso]

Oh goodness, didn't you listen to my preamble earlier? I was trying to avoid this.

[sortabeautiful.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm not dealing out any death threats. I'm just pointing out that you're asking an awful lot of us. You, as in, your whole damn group.

So I'll ask again. We're risking life and limb for you - what are you giving us in return?

[malnosso]

No no no, I need to clear this up. I stated very, very clearly that I'm not with the Organization, so I need you to understand this before I can try and convince you of anything.

[sortabeautiful.livejournal.com]

Okay, fine. Fair enough. You could be with a band of dancing gnomes for all I care.

You're still not answering my question.

[malnosso]

[A long suffering sigh.] Way to take the wind out of my sails.

Honestly, if you aren't jumping at the chance then I really don't see how you would benefit from something like this. It's more of a community-based decision anyhow.

Nah, unless I'm reading wrong, you're offering some kind of reward for running headlong into this mess. As much as I enjoy being a labrat, I'd like to know more about the cheese before I go running into any mazes.

And any info on what sort of things we're fighting and why we're fighting them would be great.

[malnosso]

I'm really not lying, I don't have anything. This is an idea to test the reception of it, so that when the real thing asks you won't be as shocked.

[sortabeautiful.livejournal.com]

Or they'll be rioting in the streets. [Shrug. Subject change!]

So... you're not with our captors, but you're not living in here with us. How does that work?

[malnosso]

You'll get used to it.

I'm a shut in.
