The Truth On The So Called 'Mayor'

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

So, let's review, shall we? -get a pencil. First, we have the million clams, then the morning fur brushing, the life time supply of grubs, the solid gold crown, the large waterhole, the lush jungle home, and.. Eh, what was that last one again? Oh! I remember now, that peace and harmony thing.

Alright! Now that that's all settled, lets get down to business. As most of you know, recently I've become the newly elected Mod and soon to be mayor of this place. And, already I've collected more than enough info that the current maggot headed mayor would even so much as think about sharing.

First of all, this whole nice guy thing he's got goin' on? It's a big sham. He's just as demanding and selfish as Laharl the know it all giraffes. He even threatened me! Insulted me! Can you believe it?

And he calls himself 'The Mayor'. He's not even in charge of this place. Someone else is. He works for somebody as well as works with certain somebodies. The organization?

He also knows how we can get back home. Thing is, it's 'classified information'. He'll deny knowing it, but if he LEFT THE CITY how could he NOT know how WE can leave? Think about that one!

What part of DO NOT ANTAGONIZSSE HIM didn't you underssstand? Our goal wasss sssimply to have sssomeone inform newcomersss of where they so that people DO NOT PANIC. What have you done Timon... In a few moments this possst will be covered with angry repliesss and people are going to be upssset and asssking quessstionsss to which you will have no anssswersss. For exssample, who are/what isss the organizssaton?

To the Mayor of Paixssao: I apologizsse but will ssstand by Timon.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

What do you mean 'what have I done'? I've done exactly what I'm supposed to: inform the people. This is stuff they outta know. Besides, that jerk had this coming. And I know exactly what... Who the organization is!

N' don't appologize to him!

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Then by all meansss, enlighten usss. Who are they and what are they?

I wasss refering to basssic information needed to fit in with the new environment and while I agree that the "mayor" hasss no right to withold thisss information from usss, verbally lambasssting him will accomplisssh nothing. For all we know he could be jussst another foriegner like usss pretending to know more than he actually doesss but until we can figure out exssactly who he isss and what hisss true ajenda isss, we are forced to play hisss twisssted game.

I realizsse that you are trying to help Timon, but pleassse do not make thisss any more difficult than it already isss.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

They're... Uh, this organization on the island who... Well, they really... That's classified information! I can't be sharing that kinda stuff on the board with just anyone. -Besides, I'm not exactly, specifically sure myself.

I don't have to play no game of his, though. I'm makin' the rules now, note my high ranking title, so he'll have to learn to play according to my game. He's as cowardly as a caterpillar anyway. What's he gunna do about it? If anything, he'll just keep posting notes to ignore me. Ooooo, I'm SO scared.

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

You sssound a little like him, be careful.

Asss harmlesssss asss he ssseemsss did it occur to you that if he began ignoring usss we might never find a way off of thisss island? In addition, I'm guesssssing that ssssomeone like him doesssn't take an alpha possssition without sssomething to back hisss wordsss with. The new policsse forcsse for exssample.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Are you suggesting I just let him get away with makin' me look like a Mook?

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Do you feel like a "mook"

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I know I ain't a Mook!

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Then why do you think that he'sss making you look like one? You know you're not a mook and ssso do I. The only one who can sssay otherwissse isss you.

[career-lesbian.livejournal.com]

You know what? I'm keeping out of this.

I think everyone here would do well to remember: It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt.

(OOC: I know Chizuru shouldn't be able to comment on this right now since she's outside the city, but...)

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Which isss what we are all trying to prevent. Thisss placsse, feelsss like a cage.

(ooc: I've no beef with it, jump on in!)

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Because we're not allowed to leave... Because we're prisoners!

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

This ain't a game, this is WAR!

[ooc: I won't tell ;)]

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Do you enjoy violencsse Timon?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't get your coils in a knot. He can't do nothin' to me.

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Do you really want to tessst him? Let'sss pretend for a moment that he'sss lying about not being the one who brought usss all here. Judging by the ssstrange abillities and people I've encountered, thisss would make him exsstremely dangerousss. And asss your' argument isss that he iss lying about everything...

[amcgees-alice.livejournal.com]

I quite agree with Timon, but I do value your opinion as well Mr. snake. If this mayor chap is withholding information we might need, I say we simply "convince" him that said information would be most useful in our capable hands.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Exactly what I've been tryin' to say.

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Thank you, but I don't think he will jussst give over the information. There isss no need for violencsse, we sssimply need to convincsse him that thisss would be in the bessst interessst of everyone.

A pleasssure to make your' aquaintancsse by the way although I am sssorry that we have met under sssuch cssircumssstancesss asss thessse. My name isss Kaa, who might you be?

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

It'sss amazssing how divided and yet united we are. It'sss ssso funny, we all want the sssame thing yet we cannot agree on how to get it done.

Timon, an idea hasss occured to me. You and the Overlord Laharl ssseem fairly close, do you think you could arrange for me to talk with him? Or if you sssee thisss, would you do the honor of gracssing usss with your' prescsssnssse Overlord Laharl.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I guess I could. You just missed him, actually. He was with me awhile ago. I'll see if I can get a hold of him.

... Kinda weird he hasn't commented on this yet.

[amcgees-alice.livejournal.com]

I would be Alice, and thanks very much for asking, Mr. Kaa. I do hope violence isn't necessary, but seeing as how these situations tend to be a bit dodgy, I use the tools I know best. You could say I'm quite gifted in that particular art of negotiation.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

As I have said before, you can feel free to call your Mayor, but you won't have any information in order to keep you in such a position unless you are able to get the other foreigners to agree with you. I will have nothing to do with those who become associated to you as a 'mayor'.

And I am sure that other can see that I have dropped the ignorant demeanor.

Of course I am a part of a much larger hierarchy. As there is a governor, there is a mayor, and there is the leader (similar to an emperor, if you will).

Just a hint: individuals would be able to leave if they came into the contact of several individuals that are currently in Paixao and came into good terms with 'them'.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

So your just gunna abandon them, hu? Typical.

And what kinda hint is that supposed to be? I ain't gunna start kissin' your feet just so I can get home, so you can forget it.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

But seeing how you haven't managed to get too many to agree with you through the boards, I doubt I will be 'abandoning' more than a dozen-- a fair number.

It's a very big yet vague hint.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

There'll be more, you'll see. In fact, I have several top secret spies wandering around this place at this very moment.

Then how 'bout fillin' me in on some of them details?

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Ssso basssically unlesss we sssuck up to you your' never going to tell usss how to leave.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

Oh no, even 'sucking up' wouldn't give you the information-- and it's not me anyone should be interested in in the long run. Even those that I would consider making an alliance with wouldn't be told. They would have to figure it out themselves.

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Riiiiiight.
