CONSTELLATION ANON THREAD MINGLE

[dun_moch]

HOW THIS WORKS:

-Your characters are participating in this encrypted MirrorNet conversation anonymously, with no identification beyond their CODENAMES as assigned when they signed up. For example, Count Dooku will appear in this thread only as ANTARES, and Raina will appear only as MAIA. Put your codename in the subject line of your first comment in a thread!
-The Stars know everyone's IDs, naturally
-All comments are visible only to this conversation by default, but can be made PRIVATE to particular individuals or groups if desired
-All tags are through text, or voice-scrambled audio
-Characters can guess at who people really are behind their codenames, like at a masquerade ball. However, the characters in question are under no obligation to confirm or deny those guesses
-Since this is an off-comm contact post, nothing in these threads will be usable for activity check
-You can still participate if your character has not ICly been recruited into the organization yet: just specify that your thread is FORWARD-DATED as you tag

Members of the Constellation. Soon, ImPorts will vote to elect a new Ambassador to represent us. This offers an opportunity.

By voting together and acting to influence the campaign, we can ensure the election of a friendly candidate who will truly represent the interests of imPorts, and of our organization. We will support the platform of DIO BRANDO, the lawyer and vampire. He will deliver a path to progress in Maurtia Falls.

All Constellation members are directed to vote in the Maurtia Falls election, and act to ensure the victory of Dio Brando. Vote for Brando, and encourage your associates to do the same. Together, we will sway this election, and create a victory for our cause.

Sounds fake, but okay.

We all look forward to seeing your enthusiastic and committed support for this candidate on display, Uranus.

[And if said support is not seen... The whole team knows who Uranus is.]

[sleight_of_hand]

Ha ha.

[ If he had no dignity, he'd just outright come out as being in a relationship with Dio. A lawyer and a well known detective? Especially one that was well liked by the native community? Probably would cause a lot of hype, especially around the romantic types. ]

[ ... ]

[ ...wait a sec. ]

no
no way
I know what you're thinking.
Forget it.

A question for you! Should we make it a little more ~inconvenient~ to vote for those who don't plan to choose Dio Brando?

Uranus

[sleight_of_hand]

Oh yeah, that's a great underlying campaign message.

"Vote for me or the guys endorsing my campaign will take out your knee caps."

Pandora

[alcheregis]

Don't be so fussy, I can put them back when we're done.

[dun_moch]

It would damage both our interests and Brando's campaign if any such actions were discovered, Pandora.

[Translation: whatever you're going to do, keep it deniable and don't get caught.]

[alcheregis]

But of course!

Text - Mars

[generalgrievous]

It will be done.

[dun_moch]

Very good, Mars. Thank you for your cooperation.

[It's nice to have at least one team member who takes a directive like this without bickering, snarking, or asking questions.

[generalgrievous]

[He can be counted on to follow orders.]

Uranus

[sleight_of_hand]

Could you kiss ass a little harder? I don't think they heard the smooching on the other side of the planet.

[generalgrievous]

You are a liability every time you act the fool.

Vampire

[Can a text sound deadpan? This one does.

It's probably a good thing he doesn't know for certain that Antares is Dooku or he might start making assumptions about the 'Count' part of his name/title.]

Text - Uranus

[sleight_of_hand]

I guess that means we can count on him to be a good lawyer, eh?

[ He couldn't help it. It was too easy. ]

[dun_moch]

Yes, a vampire. Campaigning on a platform to represent the interests of other vampires, ghouls, aliens, and other such beings within our community.

[Welcome to the imPort party, Hans.]

I'll be frank: MF is a shitheap. I had hopes that with the amount of organized crime going down there, a decent enough amount would be in our hands. It's not, it's frenzied, power-grabbing chaos. What exactly is the plan to clean those streets up and put a little bit of control into them? Your little candidate there going to put some reins on those boys?

[Hey; if there's only one head, that's the only one he's gotta cut off, when it comes to it.]

text - Pandora;

[alcheregis]

An unkind AND untrue claim.

Text - Uranus

[sleight_of_hand]

I think everyone knows it's going to take more than just the right ambassador to clean up the place. One of Dio's big plans is to encourage a night-dweller life similar to day time stuff though; that may help at least in discouraging crime a little, if there are less places for criminals to hide.

Bringing a measure of order to Maurtia Falls is a core part of his platform. And unlike a standard politician, we know he has the strength to deliver on what he promises.

He will work with Mayor Baelish to create a new force to police the streets. And through our influence, we will ensure this policy advances our own purposes.

Perhaps in the future it may be best to coordinate things like this privately with each member to avoid this situation.

[This is hilarious and he's amused.]

Text - Uranus

[sleight_of_hand]

Awww, don't spoil my fun, Puu.

[dun_moch]

You may have a point, Pluto. It will be taken under consideration.

[He regrets so much right now.]
