[ACTION: Are you new in town? Wandering around looking lost? Staring and gawking at the drones and identical houses with a growing look of dread across your face?

If so, a tall teenager will shyly approach you. He's carrying a newspaper bag, but instead of the daily news, there are pamphlets poking out. He has a quiet voice and a light Irish accent.]


Ah, um, excuse me. Couldn't help but notice that you, um, seem to be feeling your out of place. I can explain, if you's like.

[PHONE:]

Um.

N-No one's seriously considering the position of police chief, right? It's so suspicious... what if you get droned into the role, like Grad-- er, Evan Olney probably was?

[Well this is going to be incredibly awkward, but he's spotted Crowe handing out pamphlets, and he knows someone who could use one.]

...Can I have one of those? For someone who just got here.

[He isn't looking at Crowe so much at as Crowe's shoulder.]

[Commence Stammer Protocol A]

Oh. Um. Y-Yeah, sure, of course.

[He'll hand one over.] It, um, a little out of date by this point b-but if you're not sure of the details, I-I can fill you in.

[Still looking at his shoulder.]

Alright. ...I never got one of these either.

[It's probably in a convenient spot, that shoulder. Crowe's pretty tall.

He's looking away too, slightly red in the face. But he'll hand Iceland a second one.]


Ah, there you are. Sorry, I-I should have offered you one sooner.

[Iceland takes it.]

Thanks. I can figure things out, but Da--Denmark's kind of an idiot.

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Denmark? Ah, so another nation... S-Someday I think you'll a-all be here.

Well, it's pretty easy, I-I'm sure you'll both have no problem figuring it out...

...He's pretty dumb.

[Iceland is biased though.]

All my brothers are here now, though.

[She notices you passing out the pamphlet to someone. And is curious.]

Did we replace the newspapers here?

I've been wonderin'a same thing, after I heard'at phone call about Grady bein' dead and lookin' different than he did before.

Imagine if you got accepted into'a job an' got morphed into Grady II: Son of Grady. Dunno 'bout you, but that gives me'a willies.

Crowe?

Why're you passing out those fliers?

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Ah, yeah, a-all the northern European nations, right? I-It must be good to have your family here to keep you company.

Date: 2011-08-09 02:05 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
O-Oh, no. Not that they're useful, but I still hand those out. These are the information booklets for new people.

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Exactly! I-I really hope people aren't considering it like a real job. Mayfield will just use them... It could turn out r-really badly for them.

Ah, hey Mart. They're for the new people. Seems like it's that time again.

We have a booklet now?

When did that happen?

Date: 2011-08-09 02:33 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com
Yeah, new people huh.

I hope we don't get more assholes.

Especially Nazis.

Ah, awhile ago, but not everyone might of heard the news. Here, have one. It's a bit out of date, I'm afraid, but it's still good to have.

Date: 2011-08-09 02:39 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
[Well that's a weird thing to say.]

Um. I'd have to agree, yes.

From: [identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com
Glad to hear.

So, met any cool people yet?

Date: 2011-08-09 03:20 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Um, no one new yet, if that's what you mean.

volcanoes: (least said soonest mended)
From: [personal profile] volcanoes
Yeah. Well, the colonies and dependencies aren't here...

Actually I don't think Norway knows much about Mayfield yet either.

[Maybe he should sit them both down.]

... Speakin' of which, what kept Grady from "respawnin'" like everyone else, anyway? I mean, the woman that apparently got murdered came back like nothin' happened, didn't she? What did that guy call her, Jane Smith? Samantha Achewood? ... Somethin' looked off about her though.

Some people are not particularely bright, yes?

[Some people want power, and will do a lot of dumb things to get that.]

Oh, right. Because he... [Forget that thought. Just have yet another pamphlet.]

M-Maybe? Probably more like they just don't know any better, whether they're new o-or something... Still what happens if no one applies? Maybe they pick someone at random.
