In Response To Recent Events

Dear Citizens of Paixao,

The sudden loss of my rival and adversary, 'The Mayor', has been just as shocking to me as I'm sure it was to all of you. I too wanna hear some answers, hear more details about this horrendous crime and know just who is responsible. However, I doubt we'll be hearing anything soon from the officials due to lack of information shared in the past about certain events. None the less, anyone who does know something about it, I trust... Well, I hope you do what's best with the information.

On the note of the mayors seat now being free, I boldly accept the big comfy chair and take on the role of becoming your leader, C.E.O, and 'ol Mayor myself. As your leader person, it's in my best interest to look out for the well bein' of citizens n' guests of the city, doing all in my power to keep 'em safe from harm and keep 'em as informed as I have over the several past months.

-that reminds me, any gifts you wish to present to me for all my hard work will be accepted. You know, gold, pearls, diamonds, expensive jewellery... That kinds stuff.

Sincerely,

The Future Mayor of Paixao

You did ask for them, though. "Any gifts you wish to present to me" is clear indication of that.

Hate to break it to you, buddy, but the little lady is right. You're soliciting.

I said 'wish'. 'Wish'! As in 'if you want to out of your free will and goodness of your heart.'

[mustcatchme1st.livejournal.com]

But you're hinting at it, and planting the idea. And I mean, if it's supposed to be out of people's free will and goodness of heart, shouldn't it also be because they thought of it all on their own in the first place?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and it could have! I'm just saying in case someone was thinking of getting me something before I brought it up and didn't know if I'd take it or not know I would. You know?

[mustcatchme1st.livejournal.com]

Um. No?

I mean, why would they have thought about it before if this whole mayor-appointment business hasn't come up until recently? Not that I'm saying you had anything to do with it, but...

Besides, sounds like you can't be mayor yet.

I've been talkin' 'bout bein' mayor for months! This ain't as sudden as you think. Mark my words though, if not now, eventually I'll be the one sittin' all high and mighty callin' the shots.

Now, please tell me that you don't actually believe I had somethin' ta do with the old mans death. 'Cause I had nothin' to do with it. Trust me on this one. As much as I disliked the guy I would never... I couldn't. Just thinkin' 'bout that kinda stuff makes me nauseous.
