Who: Everyone
When: Day 40, later-morning
Where: Common Area
What: Long awaited meeting...

[cleared up from the events of last night and whatever earlier moments of the day, the Common Area's now sporting some tables pushed against a wall with food and drink spread out for those who would want something to munch on. opposite of this would be the masked ninja that advertised said meeting, standing in front of the windows, posture in its usual slump and seemingly lazy eye distracted by the views outside. somewhere nearby will also be that blonde people may remember as advertising the police force, pointedly standing with arms crossed, making a point to keep a CLOSE EYE on the people who attend the meeting]

Powers usually leads to fighting, thus why we got a ton of people who can brave nature. Fighting leads to higher chance of injury or death. Which means there's a chance someone can come from a home where someone else here injured them, or someone they know, or they killed someone.

And who said it was a complaint? It's called thinking ahead on something that can become an issue with this place unique set of circumstances. I've already met someone from the same world as me and a whole bunch of people came from that Sabra place.

Mm. Well, I don't know if it will work like we'd hope, but there's no harm in trying it...

[hyanaimne]

. . . I will keep that in mind.

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[hyanaimne]

Oh, one of those types, are you?

[theshadowturnedhero]

Becca, whose likely to be listened to and taken seriously? The person keeping a cool head, or the person freaking out and trying to punch people?

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[hydralize]

Yes . . . ? Why the fuck wouldn't it? Even if it was some psychopath killer that got taken down like that . . . people can't just go around doing that shit and getting away with it.

Nova...

[theshadowturnedhero]

Is she bragging about it? [Really doesn't sound like he cares.]

[pencilpremonition]

You think that's what's coming?

[She lets out a nice, loud, long laugh. It...really doesn't sound all that sane.]

You've got no fucking clue. I told you. It's what you want.

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[hydralize]

. . . Unless it was revenge for killing someone. Something like that.

[pencilpremonition]

She is.

Reinforced with what? Tattoos can't provide the right kind of metal for construction.

[best_ended]

Hm? Which types?

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[herpunishment]

Yer complaint was that people would demand punishment? Lucky an' I already got the commission ta do so. An' we're both from "that Sabra place".

Ya wanna talk contingencies? All three of us have said the same thin' even if those long ears of yers don't help your useless head realize it: punishin' people fer what they did before they were here is stupid. They come here knowin' they're gonna be punished, there's less reason ta behave, motivation ta not repeat old actions. This whole argument fer punishment is based on deterrence.

[hydralize]

What? People have a right to know shit like that. If they want to know I signed up with a crazy goddess too, fine. I'm not asking anyone to rely on me that doesn't already.

Re: Mingle

[revanchism]

You may be surprised.

What would you have them do?

[theshadowturnedhero]

[Nope. Grabbing your upper arms to stop you. I'm tiny, Becca, I can't have that take away my credibility too.]

I'll keep an ear out.

But I handled it in the way I think is best. And it was an assault towards me. I can decide how to handle something like that.

[crazylikeavulp]

I don't think anybody with a functioning frontal lobe could actually take her side...

But at this point are we being negligent in our job not having her removed from the grown-up talks?

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[ibedeadpeople]

I don't think anyone needs to be named or trusted for anything. I'm just saying I don't think that we need to plot out the penalties before we even know the rules.

[slight twitch]

Well good, as I'm not a detective. The overall point here is just to be 100% sure who the murderer is, before inflicting such a severe punishment, if we choose to go that route. Honestly, I'm not sure why we haven't. The system is filled with flaws back home, but it's still more efficient than "let crazy people run around doing as they please."

As Link and others mentioned though, having their acquaintances agree to that is the real problem.

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[ibedeadpeople]

...That's bad?

[pencilpremonition]

[fussiiiiiiiiiing why can't I have my snuggles]

So I don't get to care when my friends are abused to get at me?

[don_the_pants_of_victory]

Then use your accessible gods to deduce your murderer, take your justice of them and feed the body to the dragons.

Once or twice will stay the killing for sport of it, weed out the rabid ones, and make the lay man hesitate in his jealous hand.

Re: Discussion - Second Topic

[onlygoodlawyeris]

Fair enough, though this one is only applying to outright murder--if "Don't Kill People" isn't a common sense rule, I don't know what is. Self defense, bouts of rage, and other such actions are a bit touchier.
