[11] || [Who You Gonna Call?] || [Open]

[great_king_of_evil]

Characters: Ganondorf and anyone desiring to organize in order to fight Jason.
Setting: The Cafeteria, early morning on the 16th.
Format: Action for the main reunion, whatever for the mingle threads.

Summary: Ganondorf sent to every mailbox in the tower this letter. You may also happen to find some copies of the letter on random floors if you don't have a mailbox just yet. It's basically a call for people willing to kill Jason and it tells them to gather at the Cafeteria so as to start organizing. Some more explanation here. Ganondorf won't care if you're a good guy or one of his sworn enemies-- This is a greater cause to fight for, right? And greater causes call for truces. Besides, it's not like he's secretly hoping to absorb Jason's power if they manage to defeat him, nope.

So if you wanna become a part of Jasonbusters? Just hop right in!

Warning: If your character decides to take part to the effort to attack Jason and that they do manage to kill him well. There will be consequences, but what is life without a healthy dose of risk? And Ganondorf will take the biggest part of the punishment (permanent death) if he kills Jason anyway, so that's win-win for everyone.

[Mingle || Pre Meeting]

[great_king_of_evil]

[ This is the thread for general mingling in the Cafeteria before the meeting begins. The Cafeteria is as normal as it can be in this situation and many other people answered the call, so it looks like something may come out of it. However upon arriving, it quickly becomes obvious that villains are participating in this—worse, they're probably are the ones who made the call, though it's hard to say who arrived first. But it's all for the greater good, right? ]

[rebelprince]

[Zuko really doesn't know anybody, villain or otherwise; he just has a lot of drive and not a lot of different ways to direct it, since hunting really can only do so much, and his firebending doesn't work on those floors anyway. There's nothing interesting to eat; everything in the cafeteria is as bland as ever. Maybe he can just... blend. He can do that. Right?]

[culbutiri]

Nesir arrives carrying a bunch of weapons, she has been gathering all day. They aren't going to get far with glamoured weapons and since the real weapons keep being replaced it is a constant task.

She is ready to act, she has been ready for a long time. She looks around the room, frowning at the amount of people, and people she knows are light addled. Well. As long as they stick to the plan and don't decide to forgive Jason, or all hold hands and hope their way out of the tower or some equally useless thing. They need all the help they can get.

[great_king_of_evil]

Ganondorf didn't bother speaking to any of those who had come. The only reason he tolerated their presence was because he needed them-- Useful tools if anything. Nesir was different however.

She was one of the few people in this cursed tower Ganondorf knew he could always count in. Or rather, the only one. Her loyalty was admirable, to say the least. Sephiroth was one he could trust as well, but they were too similar, much too similar. And of course, Ganondorf wouldn't trust himself with anything; he knew himself well enough.

So Ganondorf approached her as she looked around the room, giving a glance at all the people who had come as well. His tone was neutral, maybe a bit amused at the situation.

"It's enraging, isn't it? Having to work with this kind of people."

[guardianlight]

[Lightning can't say she knows everyone she sees here, but with a letter like that? Well, maybe this "group" thing would work in this instance. Not to mention she had quite a few weapons to spare from her collecting earlier, one of them resting in the holster hanging behind her and concealed by her cloak. Might as well see what they've got planned up, right?]

[puppy_lancer]

Hey, little lady.

[Lancer comes walking up to Lightning. His voice drops to a whisper as he speaks again.]

Be careful, alright? If we go through with this, we're gonna be working with some nasty characters.

[evokingfool]

[When Minato read the letter, he did pause to think. But eventually, he made the decision to come along. It's not just for himself--but it will secretly help his restlessness over being "useless"--but for everyone who suffered because of Jason. For his friends, here and departed from the tower.

He comes to the meeting area, the Cafeteria, without a word. The leader of SEES glance around, before going to sit down and wait. It's unfortunate that during Jason's month, the menu was very bland and lacking.]

[puppy_lancer]

[Though Lancer is glaring warily at many of the faces here, he's not one to stay away from a possible opportunity to punch Jason. He stands here, carrying a Uruk-hai spear, looking around the room to see if anyone has anything good to say.]

[neverbeamemory]

[It's a long lot of stairs down to the Cafeteria now that the Elevators aren't working but still Sephiroth would be one of the first there - as always.

He's brought a few of his spoils from orc-slaying yesterday, which he'd pointedly hidden underneath the mattress rather than in his trunk, just in case. So there are a few odd bits of weaponry and armor dumped on a table nearby to where he lingers but it's noticeable that already he's equipped a brown-leathered back sheath in which a small sword is nestled - though mostly hidden by his hair. This is about as far as he's going in being charitable. He's already given so much more of himself to the residency of the Tower than he is comfortable in doing.

As usual also, Sephiroth lingers on the outskirts of where most are gathered, arms folded and glaring eyes all over everyone. Means to an end, means to an end.]

[greyerrant]

Ugh. Green-skin weapons.

[ Loken looks over the armor and weapons, some of the few things that actually might manage to fit him. ]

We do as needs must, but this pains me after the triumph of Ullanor.

[ He picks up a toothed sword which might do for him, holding it in one massive fist. ]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[Veronica was nervous. On the one hand, they were going to kill one of the admins. On the other, she was basically surrounded by people she didn't know. And some of them were villains.

But she could blend in, right? She'll happily talk to whoever about this task they were about to partake in.]

[pinnaculum]

[Sephiroth waits quietly, not particularly interested in socializing at the current moment. He watches the others assembled with curiosity, green eyes shining. Some of them he knows, but not all.

He's not sociable, but he's not rude, either. When someone meets his gaze, he nods.]

[terra_nullius]

[Look who's here? He looks vaguely interested, leaning against a wall and eyeing everyone that's there. His last experience with Ganondorf wasn't that spectacular, so he's curious to see what is going to be brought this time.]

[The Meeting]

[great_king_of_evil]

[ When everyone appears to have come to the Cafeteria, or at least enough people for them to start coordinating and plotting on a way to ambush Jason, Ganondorf finally walks to the center of the room. He looks very calm and even sort of noble—He's good at giving good impressions and hiding the evil behind manners. ]

If you are here, I can only assume you have read the letter I sent you.

[ Because yes, yes, he's the one who sent the letter. Hopefully you don't despise him nor are you allergic to villains. ]

So I will skip formalities. We have an unique chance to be rid of Jason. If we do not do it now, the opportunity may never present itself again. Worse, Ruana could kill him herself and absorb his powers like she did for Dax. This would decrease even further our chances to stand against her.

[ Because yes, yes, he's the one who sent the letter. Hopefully you don't despise him nor are you allergic to villains.]

Facing Jason alone would be foolishness. Yet we have the numbers on our side, we have equipment and we have the advantage of the surprise. We are enough driven by a common hatred that if we put aside our differences and work together toward this goal, we may stand a chance of success.

[ And with that said he goes silent, leaving a chance to speak to anyone who so desires. ]

[culbutiri]

[Nesir stands to the side watching, both Ganondorf and those gathered. If there is anyone who hates Ganondorf, causes trouble or generally dissents purely because of who is running this she is going to step in, she is sick of light addled idiots thinking the know everything and being hypocritical fools.

So she is watching, glaring, daring someone to speak.

She thinks this is what they need, an opportunity to strike. Aria has caused chaos and chaos is always preferable, and constructive to getting the right kind of stuff done.]

[evokingfool]

[Minato, personally, carry no ill will towards Ganondorf. He's aware that the man is a villain--you can thank a few number of people saying as such--but he will work for this cause.

After Ganondorf stop talking, Minato speaks up. It's quite rare, when he's usually content to watch discussions. But as this is a strategy meeting, he feels at home with talking.]

If we are going to take him down as a team, we must know our battle capabilities and roles. Who can fight and importantly, who can provide support for everyone. As it's highly likely we will receive injuries and even die as a result of them, we need to know who can heal and need protection.

[It's one of the most important thing to keep track of in battle. Protecting your own healers, while targeting the enemies' own ones.]

I can fight, but I can provide healing and supportive spells as long you're within my range.

[guardianlight]

[Neither does Lightning, which is why she has no protests so far as to who sent the letter and who will, more than likely, be the "leader" in this little party.]

Same here, along with bestowing our weapons with elemental properties. [she crosses her arms.] However, powers won't mean a damn thing if they cut out. We're going to need to be ready to maneuver to cover our own weaknesses just in case.

[puppy_lancer]

...And are you recommending yourself as leader for this gig?

[Lancer clutches his spear as he waits for Ganondorf to answer.]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[Veronica was content for the most part to stand in the back and listen to the chatter of everyone else. Ganondorf drew her out though, forcing her to ask a question.]

So, we have a promise then that there wont be any potential backstabbing?

Re: [The Meeting]

[greyerrant]

[ The armored figure glares at the not completely human-looking being, and rumbles. ]

Hatred only goes so far as a weapon. Detail your plan.

Re: [The Meeting]

[keybearer]

[Knowing that Ganon sent the letters, Riku has to fight back a grimace that threatens to overtake his face. Taking slow, deep breaths, he listens closely to Ganon's word, nodding every now and then. After all, he raises a valid point: this is their chance.

With numbers and the aid of this Aria, the balance is tipped ever so slightly in their favor. Still, a recent revelation troubles him...]

Before we do anything, there's something I wanted to mention.

[He crosses his arms, breathing a low sigh.]

For those of you who weren't in on the collar research, we found the drug that's been keeping our powers sealed. Trouble is, it hasn't been tested. My question is, do we take that chance come our next collar checks? Do we even have time? Word around the tower is that if you give the unit with glasses a note, she can set you up with the test fluid.

[For Riku, this won't be possible for days, but who knows how long it'll be before they actually see Jason? And what kind of wacky side effects could arise? If they're gonna make this count, don't they need to stay in top shape?]

[ooc: Got the okay to mention this, since Riku was part of the research teams! Hope that's okay with you all.]

[seventhsong]

[That it's Ganon that sent the letters means ... very little to Lorelei. He's here anyway; the status of villain or otherwise that Ganon held just didn't really matter much in the end.

That people want to kill Jason doesn't surprise him either. What does, however..]

I'd like to recommend that if this golden opportunity does arrive, we make some effort to take as much information from him as possible before he's killed. It might be important to have later.

[It seems like common sense to him, but if bloodlust ran high there were people who might forget, even if they agree now. And there might not be time..]

... I will not be directly helping you kill him, I don't think my skillset will actually work on an Administrator.. ... But they should work fine on everyone else. I'm a rather good healer, I and the couple others here who acn heal should be able to keep most of us alive for a while at least.

[notayoungkitten]

[Still staying in Ganon's good graces works well for Ocelot. And if this means that maybe she can finally start her revenge against the administrators, it's good enough for her.]

I have my skills. My gun still works.

[pinnaculum]

I am skilled with a sword, and with a range of other weapons, although bladed weapons are my preference. I know a variety of spells, most of them defensive spells or healing spells, but I can also use Fire and various energy attacks. I can heal any injury, short of one that is instantly fatal. I can move more quickly than most people can see. I have weapons, and I also have others to spare for those who have not yet received one.

I am a trained fighter. Even without the glamour in effect, I am stronger than an ordinary child, due to my training, but my size and speed can be an advantage.

[Not that he really is a child, but his body is, so the same principle holds.]

We must have an organized plan. It seems that some believe a disorganized free-for-all consitutes an acceptable strategy.

[He looks straight ahead, as if his words don't refer to anyone present.]

[Closed]

[evokingfool]

[At the meeting draws to an end, Minato quickly seek out and approach Ken. It's highly likely Ken won't appreciate it, but Minato will have to talk to him about this.]

Ken.
