So, this whole ballot thing? Talk about a load. Personally? I ain't doin' it. But I gotta sinkin' feelin' that we're all screwed whether ya vote either way, 'r not at all. That's what Mayfield does, man!
[Action:
So now that whole Christmas debacle was over, it was time for things to proceed as normal. As normal as Scout walking down the street with a small, hyper beagle puppy on a leash seems normal. Now that everyone's done getting tortured for the holidays, Scout's picked up his Christmas present for Ai at the pet store. He's trying to keep it in line, but it's not like he can't keep up with it. It just wants to get into everyone's business.Also maybe it will entice cute girls to come over to say hello to them, so hopes Scout! Better look out for that puppy running about your feet, or these two speeding down the sidewalk, Scout laughing all the while.
Eventually he makes it to his home on Mitchell Road.]
Hey Ai! C'mere! I gotcha somethin'!

Just a moment.
[And she disappears.]

Date: 2011-01-01 08:50 pm (UTC)[Scout blinks. Also, puppy is confused.]
no subject
Date: 2011-01-01 09:22 pm (UTC)It's good. If you don't mind children's drawings. It's a picture of Scout with a baseball bat. She made sure to add lots of blue. Because she figures he like that colour.]
She said I should draw something.

Date: 2011-01-01 08:48 pm (UTC)Besides, investigation wise... it might be better to have one of us vote and one not, so that we get multiple perspectives on what happens. So my mistake might be to our advantage.

That matters more.

Date: 2011-01-01 08:50 pm (UTC)Yeah. He showed up not all that long ago outta nowhere, same with tha post office. If ya walk in there ta collect any packages he says yer owed, ya'll get somethin' back but lose, like, a limb 'r an organ. Some people even lost memories. I don't know how anyone thinks this guy is fer real.

no subject
Date: 2011-01-01 09:02 pm (UTC)Oh yeah, we've been gettin' that idea lately. Sounds like Grady an' tha Mayor are against somma the other weirdos in charge 'a this place. The stuff Kay had heard in City Hall definitely made it sound like that.

We should do something. I don't know what, but there can't be another day like Christmas. So many people were hurt.

no subject
Date: 2011-01-02 01:36 am (UTC)Eh, no one makes fer a good drone. Pretty much anyone has more personality than those cardboard cutouts! I'm glad that despite all my time here, I've only been droned like twice.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-03 03:43 am (UTC)Twice? You're pretty brave.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-03 03:27 pm (UTC)I thought in all the time I been here, I'd get droned more often. I think I'm just lucky.
