26th Inning

[Working 14-hour days, Scout managed to get the rest of his part in those shitty propganda films completed. Exhausted, hungry, and lacking in caffeine, he figured he was done all he needed to do, so he could relax or help out his friends until this whole thing blew over... until he heard the names of those executed.]


Sniper! You said to let you know when? NOW is the time!

There can't be NOTHIN' we can do. If we just sit around, God knows how lon they'll keep us here. This ain't like Westport where they only took a few guys. This is everyone.

I never said or implied nothing can be done. Jumping into it, however, will solve nothing. Our best bet is to bide our time, gather others, and catch them off guard. They're human and humans make mistakes, it is our nature.

If we wait around any longer, we're gonna get executed!

And if we rush into this, we'll get the same result. This is not home, Scout, we are not at the bases. Applying our battlefield tactic here will get us nowhere.

Even if we actually played a team and even if RED joined us. There is hope, oui, but not the way we're trying to go about it.

Then what do YOU suggest? We can't just wait this thing out! All that did in Westport was give me a slow death.

Have you ever considered the town as a whole? We are not the only ones looking to escape. What you do could effect everyone else.

[BRB, seething.]

...Fine! I'll just wait fer them ta bust don my own door before I kick their asses. I'm sick of just waitin' around fer them ta win!

[+1 point to Spy.]

I wouldn't recommend that either. You should find out what the town wants and make plans from that. We don't even make up one percent of the population and if the others want to do nothing, then nothing you will do.

[Geez, now he's starting to sound like scolding father. Way to go, Scout.]

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

[Well, Scout does act like a kid, so he deserves the father act.]

I'm sure they don't wanna wait till they're "reprogrammed" permanently, 'r shot in tha back 'a the head.

For as long as you've been here, I'm surprised you still don't understand how the town works.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

This time seems more... I dunno, this is way more fucked up than regular ol' Mayfield. And it ain't like I sat around an' waited fer them ta drone me there, either!

No, idiot. Not the town itself, the people in it. Those of us trapped, they are always steps ahead. You'd be better getting involved with theirs than creating your own.
