"There IS something that I wanted discuss!" he declares loudly, his finger still pointed right at the leopard. "Jurisdiction." Magnus swishes his finger down and casts a look back towards Anagram, recalling the events of the criminal's reformation, before turning back towards the leopard taur. "Ever since I joined up with the K9 unit, I have been pelted over the head with the importance of sticking to that one, very specific part of the city that we are allowed to operate, to set up sting operations, to perform raids or to bust criminals!" |
| + | |||
| + | *THWAP* the fox' footpaw strikes the ground. "This is absurd! Myself and one other among the K9 are the only ones that break these pointless, archaic limitations for the betterment of the city! If we can act and do so immediately, why are there pointless barriers in place to restrict our range of effect?! It's psychotic! Our agents are skilled, so skilled now in fact that they are able to extend into areas far greater than what our silly city quadrant permits, and if we so much as DO OUR DAMN JOBS and ENFORCE THE DAMN LAW outside our jurisdiction, what we are faced with is punishment instead of congradulations of a job well done! I don't know how to play the political game, but I can tell you one thing for damn well certain, we need LESS BARRIERS, and MORE COLABORATIVE EFFORT! I know we are supposed to enforce the rules, but it's pretty damn hard when some of them are so... idiotic."</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune quietly seethes at the comments and insinuations made by the fennec, frustrated by the fact that the Police Department even HAD the resources to be so disjointed and disorganized. The city only had to fucking fire engines for crying out loud and they send a representative here to bitch about jurisdiction?! He holds his tongue though and waits for what the representatives had to say in reply, gaging his own comments on that response.</div><br> <br><div title="Anagram">Anagram gives his smug smile. How can he not? He just became a force of change. The very fact that Anagram exists as himself is causing a push through a city's infrastructure. He will stay quiet for now, but his mind is racing on how he can take this to his advantage, on what legal stance he can get control.</div><br> <br><div title="Bilyso">Bilyso Jumps up a bit when the Fennec starts screaming but quickly goes back to relaxing in his chair.</div><br> <br><div title="Willy">The Fox Taur raises a brow as he hears Magnus's comments and sits back to calmly listen to the conversation. He hadn't thought about the range of such in the city, but he expected it may partially have to do with what was "safe". This was definitly a conversation to keep up on, as it was a deep question of safety, and he wondered what the Snowleopard taurs response will be.</div><br> <br><div title="Sasha">Sasha looks over Magnus as he blurts out about what is bothering him, stunned for a moment! As she looks at him, mouth hanging open, the glow about her changes, her colorings turning from the light red and black she'd had a moment ago to a bright pink, as a slight blush froms at her ear tips and nose. She shakes her head though, and writes down what Magnus had said and prepares to record the offical's responce. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Mr. Jupiter doesn't look too pleased by Magnus's outburst, a slight sneer coming to his features before he contains it. "Yes, it is important though that we make sure our various districts and departments work within their boundries to ensure that proper coverage and enforcement is upheld. There is a possibility for cross district cooperation, if the heads of the districts and departments, in coordination with the Chief of Districts, decide that such is a priority on our city's resources. I can understand your concerns though, umm... Officer..." He stops a moment to check the paperwork to see who is representing the K-9 department, "Officer Ottkins, and I'll bring them up the next time we have a meeting with the Chief of Districts." He clears his throat, "I do suppose that this is a good time to open the floor to matters of law enforcement that have been on the city council members' minds for a while. We do have a few complants about things that are bothersome, things that may need to warrent a punishment that don't currently. There has been some talk of instatuting traffic controls on our streets, and laws that outline what should be done if such is infracted upon, for example, a few months back a family of Fennecs was injured, two critically, when a Panther Taur, who was running late for his work, and was talking with his boss on his COMM unit, ran into an intersection at high speeds, impacting the family. Everyone involved has since made a complete recovery, but, what should the city do to help prevent this from occuring again? Are there any other incidents that there is no current law written for that should be discussed?"</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv Merv pops up and chirps. "So how do you... direct flying? There are no light signs up there... traffic lights." His companion Melody purrs "More space to move though."</div><br> <br><div title="Bilyso">Bilyso dooks, "you don't really need traffic lights for flying unless you're as big as a plane or something like that. For smaller folks like me, we can pretty much just fly anywhere."</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune chimes in from the side of the stage, "Current FAA guidelines have not applied, however general rule of thumb is managed in the rule the larger mutant has the right of way. I have yet to see an operating vehicle in the air but it would be safe to bet that they are a hazard and thus should always get the right of way, and by that I mean you should get Right Out of The Way!" Korune says emphasizing the last words in his answer.</div><br> <br><div title="Anagram">Anagram keeps a close eye on Mr Jupiter and Magnus. He starts typing out pages of notepads on his comm using nanomagic programs. He should really get a flash drive or something for later, he thinks to himself. He's been studying law from training courses and libraries for months now, and now there might be a crowd worked up enough to accept his plans without too much medling.</div><br> <br><div title="Magnus">"Optimal coverage..." the fennec squints his eyes and grits his teeth. He waves the finger at the leopard taur again and huffs "You'll drown us in paperwork while the criminals act freely, I've seen the belly of the beast, worked with some of the smelliest slimeballs currently holed up in this city's festering taint, and I can tell you for a god damn FACT that every second of time wasted asking permission and coordinating between departments is a problem." Magnus lowers his finger and huffs sharply out his nose. "The most adept know our response times, they can predict who'll be patrolling, which parts of town will be most vulnerable, and how long it'd take for a response on our behalf." | ||
| + | |||
| + | "I've done it myself before I cleared my nose while I was working with one of the more organized gangs. These kinds of laws are like a ball and chain, and the scum of Fairhaven are making good use of this bureaucratic bullshit to pull ahead." The fennec shakes his head and sighs softly, covering his face. "Traffic laws... no. Nothing in our area, but again..." Magnus riterates. "Nothing in /our area/. If traffic accidents are becoming an issue, then it'd be reasonable to mark ramming someone as a felony. I'd rather we don't fill up our cells with dumb adolescents who are just learning how to hold the steering wheel however. Institute a monetary punishment, or hell... community service. The lot of the city's other departments are struggling, especially the EMT... we should do something about that."</div><br> <br><div title="Willy">Willy calmly listens to the current conversation, rather intregued about the disuccsion itself. Willy begins to raise his hand in hopes of giving an idea, but he hears Magnus interrupt and change the subject, and decides he'll just let it pass and will suggest later.</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv makes a note to avoid that helicopter near Zephyr. "So uh... this flock just yields to the bigger thing. Got it."</div><br> <br><div title="Sasha">Sasha blinks a bit, looking at Magnus as he talks about some of the things she's been discovering since she started police work in this city as well. She nods a bit, her pink glow starting to intensify as she squirms a bit in her pillowy 'seat'. She gulps a bit, shaking her head again, and continuing to write things down, before speaking up herself, "Hello, CPT Sasha Kinet of District Seven Sir, and I'd like to put my voice behind what Officer Ottkins has said as well. I've noticed some difficulty in keeping the peace due to outside factors, as well as the thought that minor violations should be handled in small ways." She says, gulping slightly before falling silent again. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The snow leaperdtaur's tail swishes a few times behind him, before taking on a more question mark shape, then just lazily swaying, "Alright, thank you Officers, I will be sure to bring this up, but I can at this time assure you that there will be work committed to to permit interdepartmental work." A sigh, "As for air traffic, we've been able to assure people that the Blue Gryphon flocks won't be... ahem... inseminating people, or trying to, while they are in the air, and that has gone a great way towards preventing incidents, as for other situations," he nods towards Korune, "Until further discussion can be held, that seems to be the best solution at this time, but, another thing to bring to the attention of my colleges." He shuffles the papers and taps them on the podium before, "If there is nothing else involving law enforcement at this time, I'd like to open the floor for other questions and discussions?"</div><br> <br><div title="Anagram">It is at this time Anagram takes his step. He gives a short whistle to his dog, who looks up to him and stays. Anagram himself stands and raises his hand, asking simply "I have a few ideas that might help with police logistics and juristiction, including traffic laws. If you'll give me a few minutes after the meeting, I'll be sure to pass them along." He then retakes his seat, wearing his same confident smile.</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune steps up to the podium clearly made for smaller agents and mutants, he adjusts it before starting his speech, "Greetings everyone, my name is Korune Karvoth and I am the leading sergeant of arms for the Fairhaven Fire Department, response and recovery unit. First I would like to thank Mr. Jupiter and the citizens of Fairhaven for my opportunity to speak here today. I have only been in a leadership position at the Fire Department of Fairhaven for a short while and I would stand and ask for you, the citizens, as well as the citiesnea continued support. The police and patrol activities have seen a plethora of the cities resources and volunteers, it has gone to good use, minimizing the feral impact on our daily lives and giving us the benefit of a collaborative society no longer bound by fear. I would now ask the citizens and the city for further assistance in the direction of our fire fighting services and most notably the ambulatory operations. We could always use more volunteers, but most notably we need more emergency medical staff! The six we have are horribly overworked and underpaid. Additionally, we only have the equipment to support two squads, with our two engines. If a catastrophic event were to occur, the fire department as it stands would be woefully and inadequately prepared to respond. Most notably, if we were to have multiple fires break out simultaneously like during the wyvern and dragon mating seasons... I'll let your imagination do the rest of the explanation on that point. Thusly, I plead for your continued support in developing our capacity as a civic service into one that is both more timely and efficient in the hope of saving lives, liberty, and your continued pursuit of happiness. I would be happy to floor any questions regarding the EMT and Fire Department's activities, if there are none, then Thank you for your time." He says scanning the audience for any incomming questions or comments.</div><br> <br><div title="Willy">Willy Nods to Korune's speech after a couple moments and takes it in. He thinks about things for a minute before raising his hand, curious about how he can help out even in the situation as is, knowing his skills aren't that good for direct help, but perhaps they can be applied.</div><br> <br><div title="Magnus">"I have a friend in the EMT." Magnus speaks up once the speech is done. "I can say without a shadow of a doubt that her job is literally killing her, or it was before she had a nervous breakdown after some personal drama. She worked an average of twelve hours a day and the things she did required precision and focus. She was under constant pressure, and I think it is safe to assume the same is true for the current staff of the EMT. It is a dirty, thankless, underpaid job for our last line of defense when it comes to protecting the lives of our citizens. I have personally hosted events in the past to raise funds for the EMT service, however in addition to their group demanding trained specialists, it also requires expensive and difficult to maintain equipment." | ||
| + | |||
| + | "The K9 stand tall and strong on our own, we do what we can to grow without the assistance of the government. This is at least what I have seen, and what I love about my unit. If the city is so stripped for cash, then... and I can't believe I am saying this since the police Chief is gonna pop a gasket once he finds out, but we can make do with less funding if the EMT receive it instead. Much the same for the Fire Department, a few months back, I took place in a rescue effort to save people from a burning building. There were no casualties, but only because the brave men and women who stepped in and volunteered were so heroic in their efforts. The Fire Department can not be left to rely on the chance help of others when shit hits the fan again, and it will. It always does. If our fire fighting brothers and sisters are in dire need, then I suggest you show the footage of the fire I mentioned to the fat cats holding all the cash. Gods forbid one of their houses catch on fire and the Fire Department can't respond on time..." Magnus squints quietly and tucks his hands behind his back.</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv Merv holds up a milk bottle. I.. remember I used to get shot at while flying around. Since that's not a thing anymore ... We have some leftover milk now with less hole to patch. Do the medics have an issue with first aid supplies that might add to a flock or pride?</div><br> <br><div title="Bilyso">Bilyso starts curling up for a nap before quickly remembering where he is and snapping to attention</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune shakes his head solemnly, "Thank you for your support officer Ottkins. And I'm afraid not, EMT's require specialized medical equipment that would not risk contamination to the patient, the risk of mutation occuring during critical care is a huge risk to their life as such we can only provide purified and sanitized equipment for treatment." He pauses for a moment, "Any other questions?" If there are none he steps down from the podium.</div><br> <br><div title="Willy">Willy starts to say in a firm voice. "Um, yes, I was wondering if there was any way someone would be able to help on a techical level. Reason being is that while I don't really have the medical skills to take part directly in services, I believe I could help out with techincal needs, by my computer skills and with my Techical abilities."</div><br> <br><div title="Anagram">Anagram mentally sets aside his plans for law enforcement, and returns his attention to the current problem of EMTs. Not something he can deal with right now, but knowing that equipment is in high demand, he might use this bit of information later when making his investments.</div><br> <br><div title="Magnus">The fennec rubs his forehead. This was a lot of stress that he was not used to dealing with. Doing this wasn't like the thrills of tracking and taking down the perps like he did on the beat. He feels the discussion has veered away from his area of expertise, so he draws in a few breaths and resigns himself to take a seat off to the side, coincidentally near where Sasha was sitting. Noting the change in color and having scented something on her when she'd approached, he raises a brow and discretely sparks a conversation with her, quiet enough that no one overhears...</div><br> <br><div title="Sasha">Sasha nods a bit about what Magnus says again, biting her lip for a moment before looking and addressing him more directly, "My sister, Aimee, is in generalized medicine for Fairhaven, should I talk to her about relocating to being an EMT? I have to admit, I wasn't aware it was quite that bad there." Her voice is much softer than she's ever spoken around Magnus, a particular scent starting to waft off of her as well. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Mr Jupiter though nods a bit at what Korune is saying, "I see, yes, that is very concerning. I will see what can be done to assist in getting more personel and shore up funds for those departments. This does indeed sound critical and I-" He stops for a moment, tail sticking directly out before it returns to its normal waving, a smile upon his face, "Indeed, I'll recommend that the offical perscribed punishment for a minor violation of lesser laws, such as traffic laws, be three weeks manditory community service as a volunteer level fire fighter! Jessica," he says, looking over to the Fennic assistant he has, "write that down, thank you." He says before looking again to Korune.</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv looks at the milk vial confused. Melody opens it an checks it. Yes that's pure alright. Pure Blue Gryphon Milk and nanites. "What's wrong with?" he chirps absently while she sniffs it.</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune nods to the fox-taur, "Without the practical training of a fire fighter, we could always use you for dispatch or equipment maintenance. Feel free to drop by and see how you might want to apply yourself." He then turns to Mr. Jupiter with a wince, "Thank you Mr. Jupiter for the consideration, however I warn about the training requirements and field of danger that the fire brigade is subjected to in the line of duty. I hardly feel that subjecting civilians to such a punishment in a mandatory practice is constitutional let alone effective in remediation of behavior. I would suggest perhaps giving the accused an option of paying a larger monetary fine OR civil service in the hope that them agreeing to the alternative of the fine provides a space for their personal commitment to the civil service. Would you want someone who had run a red light and performed involuntary manslaughter holding the firehose or trying to pry you out of a burning building?" the chimera debates.</div><br> <br><div title="Willy">The Fox Taur nods. "Thanks I'll look into it after the meeting" he says, before he softly sits back down in his bench chair, and calmly listens to more of the conversation, relaxing his tails all the while.</div><br> <br><div title="Sasha">Sasha seems to be very concerned with Magnus near her, the glow and soft scents from her picking up, until something happens that has her jerking away from the fennec slightly, and putting her attention back to center stage, "I'm... not entirely sure what this 'constitutional' is and what a person's ability to resist disease, poisons, and general physical fitness would have to do with indirect firefighting." She says, "But as for having minor criminal offences lead to manditory community service, that sounds like a good idea, assuming they aren't expected to perform any critical or sensative functions." She says, before just looking at Magnus and giving a nod. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The representative nods a bit, both to Korune and to Sasha, before looking about, "Alright, I feel that this has been a very productive meeting. Thank you all again, we have some good ideas on where to go with our future endevors, do we have any other pending business needing discussion before we wrap up for the night?"</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv chirps "Thanks for not shooting us any more? We'll avoid the helicopter... even if he looks friendly."</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune steps down from the podium a little frustrated but hopeful that maybe something will move in the right direction.</div><br> <br><div title="Bilyso">Bilyso dooks, "I thought I had something to say but I can't seem to remember it right now and I don't think it was too important anyways. Thanks for letting me listen in."</div><br> <br><div title="Magnus">"I said what I had to say. The K9 will keep doing what we're doing. Hopefully soon we'll be able to do so without worrying about imaginary borders." The fox dusts his uniform off and nods. "Now we get to see how long it takes for things to improve, if at all." He casts a glance towards Anagram and smirks softly. "Send me a copy of the records and transcripts. There's a bag of money in it for ya."</div>[[Category:RPLogs]] | ||

Merv preens his companion's wing.
Bilyso climbs on Korune's head
Sasha heaves a sigh as she wobbles and waddles her way into the gym looking at the bleachers that have been erected for this even specifically. Smaller sections are set up for shorter folk, larger sections for larger folks, and even paddings and other dedications made for people who's body structures lay outside of the typical biped or may need other such accomidations. Using her wings, Sasha flutters her wings and lands in an area reserved for 'Hyper Mothers To Be'. Sitting there, she is joined by a Keagle on her left and a Moon Dolphin of all things on her right. The stadium is slowly filling up, while a Margay Taur in a business suit takes the podium to do a microphone test, and behind hir, the rest of the associate from Fairhaven's public office's entarage waits, the representive himself being a Snow Leopardtaur, and his two assistants one a Fennec in THICK glasses holding many stacks of papers, and a Komodo Dragon making sure that his boss's fur and suit look good. "Test one two, Test one two, Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers."
Bilyso gets up from his spot in the corner and starts moving toward the smaller folks section of the auditorium before curling up into his chair.
Merv curls up on a bench with Melody and shares some popcorn he got at the mall from the rats. He wasn't sure what was going on but this looks important. Maybe he can learn from how this crowd manages their nest. Both tail tufts twitch with anticipation as ears perk up at the mic test.
"What am I doing here? I could be back home getting my rocks off right now..." A certain fennec mutters to himself, his hands in his pockets, body hugged tightly by the black police uniform of the K-9 Fairhaven Police Force, his vibrant yellow eyes concealed by a pair of stylish shades, back covered by a sturdy RIOT shield, a backpack resting just under it. He was fairly lightly armed, what little weaponry was visible being heavily modified to be more compact and easy to carry around, the only thing really standing out as dangerous being the rifle on his back. "Of all the dogs they could send, they decide to dispatch the rookie street pounder to deal with political bullshit, well... it wasn't Razz's call I guess." Magnus monologues internally, pacing around the room as he surveys the area. There wasn't much to look at, it was the very same gym he'd gone to.
Magnus huffs softly to himself as he spots the cracked ceiling just above the entrance. He rubs at his neck as he recalls exactly how that damage was done, his expression telling that it was not a pleasant memory. His eyes glance over to the spot on the wall where basketball hoops hung, flashbacks wafting through his head of those long roundball games. He was so much taller back then... pointlessly so. His glance snaps onto the corner of the gymnasium, a soft sigh parting him as he recalls the yoga mats that rested there once, upon them the gymnists and that first crush he had as a stupid teenager in the new world, the girl he never had the balls to ask out. His ears flit left and right for a moment, distant echos of sports events being held, airhorns ringing and games being played by the best of the best in this modest school... he had a pretty good early months all things considered. It put a smile to his face... for it was so long ago now.
His attention is pulled away as he finds himself at the front of the crowd when a familiar face makes her presence known. "Figures." Magnus mutters under his breath as he spots Sasha taking the stand. She was the outspoken type, event host and what not. Still, seeing her so... round, while on duty, the fox doubted it'd ever stop being so jarring. He crosses his arms, and listens in, there was nothing to comment on right now, after all.Anagram straitens his buisness suit and whistles for his dog. Him a kemo german shepherd with an actual german shepherd dog at heel. He sniffs at the air for a second to register the multiple forms surrounding him, then with a coy and confident smile whistles again for his dog to follow him to the bleachers. He looks around at the others in the crowd as he takes a seat up and to the back, giving himself a wider view.
Korune files into the gymnasium. Not from the back but from the side, squeezing in through the smaller doors. He doesn't step up onto the stage with the other heads of the city but stands off to the side. He wears his standard armored getup, however the fire brigade badge was clearly pinned to the armor on his chest. He notices the small fennec representing the police forces and chuckles a bit to himself having interacted with the little fox on an occasion or two. He would step up to represent or speak on the status of the Fairhaven Fire Department but nothing more, as was routine for his presence here in any official capacity.
%THe does take a moment to glance around at the growing crowd, looking for any recognizable agents or mutants as they file in, keeping an eye to make sure that if too many civilians were present, he would have to sequester entry as per the standing fire code.
making his way into the audience, Willy worked his way over to the Taur seating with a smile. Finding a bench to lay upon, the Fox Taur lays his lower body down, allowing his legs to drape off the end. Relaxed and comfertable, he looks twoards the stand as they do the mike test. Looking over the front he doesn't register any faces, until he sees Korune in the firemans getup and smirks a bit learning about it, before he simply looks twoards the front to see what the meeting with pretain.
Sasha looks around a bit, sighing slightly when she sees Magnus. "Well, that is interesting, and here he told me he was too much of a 'free spirit' to put the uniform on." She says, first adjusting her own uniform, then keeping her teeth beared when she's done talking to herself, but she returns to looking towards the center of the gym with a notepaid waiting for the event to begin proper. Her eyes keep finding themselves back on Magnus though, unable to not growl whenever it happens.
"Test test, ok sir, the PA system seems to be functioning properly." Says the Margay Taur before stepping back. The first to step up is the Fennec however, "Good evening everyone, and thank you for coming to this town hall hosted by Representative Steven Jupiter. Tonight Mr. Jupiter would like to take a moment to discuss the improvements made to Fairhaven city as well as directions that efforts could be moved towards to improve further with our fair city." The rather small Fennec clears her throat before continuing, "Some of you may recall, in not so many years back, that the city in its entirety was in shambles, with only Zephyr Tower, New Dawn, and a few other small sections carved out that were safe for the general population, but now, we have been able to do much to make this a safe and welcoming place for both mutated and unmutated alike. Mr. Jupiter would like if we could all take a moment of silence though, for those lost in the events that happened Feburary 11th 2008, and those who have worked so hard, some of which paying the ultimate price, for what we have today." The lights are dimmed, Sasha takes her patrol cap off, lowering it to the top of her breasts before bowing her head.
Bilyso seems to have a flash of remembrance during the silence and after a few moments, he activates the recording software on his data nanomagic so that he can review the meeting afterwards even when he inevitably gets distracted by nothing.
Willy calmly listens to the opening with a wag of the tail and a smile. He was happy to hear that the city was starting to improve, especially as some of the projects he had worked on over the past 7 years had come to fruition in their improvements. That smile though goes away as P-Day in mentioned, and he nods at the request of silence. Bowing down and placing his hand on his upper heart, he sits there solumnly in silence.
The fennec keeps his gaze hidden behind those sturdy shades of his, they oddly enough came with the uniform, because if you're gonna enforce the law, you may as well look stylin' as fuck doing it, right? His ears tilt towards the one speaking, hands clenching up a little bit as he chooses his words with care. Magnus was, in essence, representing his entire unit right now. Why? Why did they pick him? This was literally the worst thing they could have sent him to do! They may as well have sent the janitor in his stead! The fox sighs quietly under his breath, noting the gathering crowd a soft smirk and a dancing glance. His vision snaps from face to face, tracing and scanning any potential troublemakers, until... "Anagram?" He'd whisper to himself. "Psh... here's hoping you are keeping that nose clean." That was the agreement they had, at least. Though at this point Anagram's situation was well out of Magnus' hands... out of his hands... out of his... THAT'S IT!
The fox' eyes widen for a moment, his tail flitting as he realizes there really WAS something he wanted to address. Once Sasha speaks up however, Magnus casts her a soft smirk. "I am a free spirit. I live free and work free, as agreed with the police chief. There's a thing about people like me though, we believe freedom is something everyone is entitled to. So while I enjoy mine, I may as well ensure the freedom of others. Plus, I love the uniform." He tilts his head just the right way that she'd see behind his shades as he casts her a wink. "Get to know me babe, maybe you can solve me cause I'm done trying." His attention returns to the people speaking, and once 2008 is mentioned, the fennec remains motionless. He was not an old-worlder after all, he didn't understand these kinds of gestures, though what he knew was courtesy, enough such that he at least keeps quiet for as long as the others do. His foot taps faintly on the ground, seems he had something on his mind he wanted to speak up about...
Korune simply bows his head, having only heard about the experience that was the apocalypse. He knew many didn't make it and those that did had changed, the world had changed, his existence here was because of it. He was still naive to many aspects of the history of Fairhaven and the world around him, but he knew enough to honor those that fell in the time before him.
Anagram closes his eyes in peace for that day he remembered over a decade ago, and opend them again a few seconds later. He keeps mental note on his comm on everything he is witnessing using his interfacing nanomagic, while his dog starts to lay down beside him. He notices Magnus representing the police that he had made a deal with a while ago, and Anagram wasn't planning on doing anything this event other than recording it for later use. Getting to know all of the politicians and service representatives was good for him, seeing as he will be dealing with mercantile work for the forseeable future.
Sasha glances to Magnus for a moment, shaking her head, "Look, I'm going to drop these pups at ANY moment. I could go into labor right here and now, but there wasn't anyone else I could really send who understands the needs of District Seven like I do. We can talk after we are done here." She says once the lights are turned back up.
"Thank you all again, and now, Mr. Jupiter." The Fennec steps back, the Snow Lepardtaur scratching her head, with her churring with joy loud enough for the mic to catch it. "Yes, thank you all once more. I'm proud to say that with our full time staff as well as part timers, we have been able to secure relative safety for most of Fairhaven, queel the more dangerous and violent natures of our feral population. Before I open the floor for questions though, I'd like to summerize the progress that has been made since my installment as one of your representatives in this fine community." He begins to list off such things as the solar power plant being constructed and maintained, the referbishing of the power grid, the construction and expansion of the police force, the construction of the fire department, and even the safety enjoyed now by Fairhaven's parcel workers, though there is much room for interuption, and he seems to be perfectly at home being as long winded about the city's accomplishments as he can...
Bilyso tries to pay attention to the speech as long as he can, but eventually his ferrety instincts start popping up and he pulls a fidget device out of his hoodie pocket so that he hopefully won't cause too much of a scene by wandering off.
Willy rises up as the lights come on and calmly listens to the list of accomplishments. Mentionings of the solar power plant and improvements to the sewer system makes his his four tails wag happily, as he knows his own work and reasearch went into helping make sure they were completed. As the Lepoardtaur continued, he settled down a bit, making sure his tails aren't bapping anyone before he awaited to see what was planned in store.
Merv looks around at the citizenry... wait.. Pday was when... This year is what? Merv whispers quietly "What's the date?" to Melody and continues watching. His beak furrowed with concern over the missing time and then, it's not.
Once the topic of law enforcement is brought up and an opening is provided for discussion, Magnus raises his finger and points it right at the leopard taur. "There IS something that I wanted discuss!" he declares loudly, his finger still pointed right at the leopard. "Jurisdiction." Magnus swishes his finger down and casts a look back towards Anagram, recalling the events of the criminal's reformation, before turning back towards the leopard taur. "Ever since I joined up with the K9 unit, I have been pelted over the head with the importance of sticking to that one, very specific part of the city that we are allowed to operate, to set up sting operations, to perform raids or to bust criminals!"
- THWAP* the fox' footpaw strikes the ground. "This is absurd! Myself and one other among the K9 are the only ones that break these pointless, archaic limitations for the betterment of the city! If we can act and do so immediately, why are there pointless barriers in place to restrict our range of effect?! It's psychotic! Our agents are skilled, so skilled now in fact that they are able to extend into areas far greater than what our silly city quadrant permits, and if we so much as DO OUR DAMN JOBS and ENFORCE THE DAMN LAW outside our jurisdiction, what we are faced with is punishment instead of congradulations of a job well done! I don't know how to play the political game, but I can tell you one thing for damn well certain, we need LESS BARRIERS, and MORE COLABORATIVE EFFORT! I know we are supposed to enforce the rules, but it's pretty damn hard when some of them are so... idiotic."
Korune quietly seethes at the comments and insinuations made by the fennec, frustrated by the fact that the Police Department even HAD the resources to be so disjointed and disorganized. The city only had to fucking fire engines for crying out loud and they send a representative here to bitch about jurisdiction?! He holds his tongue though and waits for what the representatives had to say in reply, gaging his own comments on that response.
Anagram gives his smug smile. How can he not? He just became a force of change. The very fact that Anagram exists as himself is causing a push through a city's infrastructure. He will stay quiet for now, but his mind is racing on how he can take this to his advantage, on what legal stance he can get control.
Bilyso Jumps up a bit when the Fennec starts screaming but quickly goes back to relaxing in his chair.
The Fox Taur raises a brow as he hears Magnus's comments and sits back to calmly listen to the conversation. He hadn't thought about the range of such in the city, but he expected it may partially have to do with what was "safe". This was definitly a conversation to keep up on, as it was a deep question of safety, and he wondered what the Snowleopard taurs response will be.
Sasha looks over Magnus as he blurts out about what is bothering him, stunned for a moment! As she looks at him, mouth hanging open, the glow about her changes, her colorings turning from the light red and black she'd had a moment ago to a bright pink, as a slight blush froms at her ear tips and nose. She shakes her head though, and writes down what Magnus had said and prepares to record the offical's responce.
Mr. Jupiter doesn't look too pleased by Magnus's outburst, a slight sneer coming to his features before he contains it. "Yes, it is important though that we make sure our various districts and departments work within their boundries to ensure that proper coverage and enforcement is upheld. There is a possibility for cross district cooperation, if the heads of the districts and departments, in coordination with the Chief of Districts, decide that such is a priority on our city's resources. I can understand your concerns though, umm... Officer..." He stops a moment to check the paperwork to see who is representing the K-9 department, "Officer Ottkins, and I'll bring them up the next time we have a meeting with the Chief of Districts." He clears his throat, "I do suppose that this is a good time to open the floor to matters of law enforcement that have been on the city council members' minds for a while. We do have a few complants about things that are bothersome, things that may need to warrent a punishment that don't currently. There has been some talk of instatuting traffic controls on our streets, and laws that outline what should be done if such is infracted upon, for example, a few months back a family of Fennecs was injured, two critically, when a Panther Taur, who was running late for his work, and was talking with his boss on his COMM unit, ran into an intersection at high speeds, impacting the family. Everyone involved has since made a complete recovery, but, what should the city do to help prevent this from occuring again? Are there any other incidents that there is no current law written for that should be discussed?"
Merv Merv pops up and chirps. "So how do you... direct flying? There are no light signs up there... traffic lights." His companion Melody purrs "More space to move though."
Bilyso dooks, "you don't really need traffic lights for flying unless you're as big as a plane or something like that. For smaller folks like me, we can pretty much just fly anywhere."
Korune chimes in from the side of the stage, "Current FAA guidelines have not applied, however general rule of thumb is managed in the rule the larger mutant has the right of way. I have yet to see an operating vehicle in the air but it would be safe to bet that they are a hazard and thus should always get the right of way, and by that I mean you should get Right Out of The Way!" Korune says emphasizing the last words in his answer.
Anagram keeps a close eye on Mr Jupiter and Magnus. He starts typing out pages of notepads on his comm using nanomagic programs. He should really get a flash drive or something for later, he thinks to himself. He's been studying law from training courses and libraries for months now, and now there might be a crowd worked up enough to accept his plans without too much medling.
"Optimal coverage..." the fennec squints his eyes and grits his teeth. He waves the finger at the leopard taur again and huffs "You'll drown us in paperwork while the criminals act freely, I've seen the belly of the beast, worked with some of the smelliest slimeballs currently holed up in this city's festering taint, and I can tell you for a god damn FACT that every second of time wasted asking permission and coordinating between departments is a problem." Magnus lowers his finger and huffs sharply out his nose. "The most adept know our response times, they can predict who'll be patrolling, which parts of town will be most vulnerable, and how long it'd take for a response on our behalf."
"I've done it myself before I cleared my nose while I was working with one of the more organized gangs. These kinds of laws are like a ball and chain, and the scum of Fairhaven are making good use of this bureaucratic bullshit to pull ahead." The fennec shakes his head and sighs softly, covering his face. "Traffic laws... no. Nothing in our area, but again..." Magnus riterates. "Nothing in /our area/. If traffic accidents are becoming an issue, then it'd be reasonable to mark ramming someone as a felony. I'd rather we don't fill up our cells with dumb adolescents who are just learning how to hold the steering wheel however. Institute a monetary punishment, or hell... community service. The lot of the city's other departments are struggling, especially the EMT... we should do something about that."
Willy calmly listens to the current conversation, rather intregued about the disuccsion itself. Willy begins to raise his hand in hopes of giving an idea, but he hears Magnus interrupt and change the subject, and decides he'll just let it pass and will suggest later.
Merv makes a note to avoid that helicopter near Zephyr. "So uh... this flock just yields to the bigger thing. Got it."
Sasha blinks a bit, looking at Magnus as he talks about some of the things she's been discovering since she started police work in this city as well. She nods a bit, her pink glow starting to intensify as she squirms a bit in her pillowy 'seat'. She gulps a bit, shaking her head again, and continuing to write things down, before speaking up herself, "Hello, CPT Sasha Kinet of District Seven Sir, and I'd like to put my voice behind what Officer Ottkins has said as well. I've noticed some difficulty in keeping the peace due to outside factors, as well as the thought that minor violations should be handled in small ways." She says, gulping slightly before falling silent again.
The snow leaperdtaur's tail swishes a few times behind him, before taking on a more question mark shape, then just lazily swaying, "Alright, thank you Officers, I will be sure to bring this up, but I can at this time assure you that there will be work committed to to permit interdepartmental work." A sigh, "As for air traffic, we've been able to assure people that the Blue Gryphon flocks won't be... ahem... inseminating people, or trying to, while they are in the air, and that has gone a great way towards preventing incidents, as for other situations," he nods towards Korune, "Until further discussion can be held, that seems to be the best solution at this time, but, another thing to bring to the attention of my colleges." He shuffles the papers and taps them on the podium before, "If there is nothing else involving law enforcement at this time, I'd like to open the floor for other questions and discussions?"
It is at this time Anagram takes his step. He gives a short whistle to his dog, who looks up to him and stays. Anagram himself stands and raises his hand, asking simply "I have a few ideas that might help with police logistics and juristiction, including traffic laws. If you'll give me a few minutes after the meeting, I'll be sure to pass them along." He then retakes his seat, wearing his same confident smile.
Korune steps up to the podium clearly made for smaller agents and mutants, he adjusts it before starting his speech, "Greetings everyone, my name is Korune Karvoth and I am the leading sergeant of arms for the Fairhaven Fire Department, response and recovery unit. First I would like to thank Mr. Jupiter and the citizens of Fairhaven for my opportunity to speak here today. I have only been in a leadership position at the Fire Department of Fairhaven for a short while and I would stand and ask for you, the citizens, as well as the citiesnea continued support. The police and patrol activities have seen a plethora of the cities resources and volunteers, it has gone to good use, minimizing the feral impact on our daily lives and giving us the benefit of a collaborative society no longer bound by fear. I would now ask the citizens and the city for further assistance in the direction of our fire fighting services and most notably the ambulatory operations. We could always use more volunteers, but most notably we need more emergency medical staff! The six we have are horribly overworked and underpaid. Additionally, we only have the equipment to support two squads, with our two engines. If a catastrophic event were to occur, the fire department as it stands would be woefully and inadequately prepared to respond. Most notably, if we were to have multiple fires break out simultaneously like during the wyvern and dragon mating seasons... I'll let your imagination do the rest of the explanation on that point. Thusly, I plead for your continued support in developing our capacity as a civic service into one that is both more timely and efficient in the hope of saving lives, liberty, and your continued pursuit of happiness. I would be happy to floor any questions regarding the EMT and Fire Department's activities, if there are none, then Thank you for your time." He says scanning the audience for any incomming questions or comments.
Willy Nods to Korune's speech after a couple moments and takes it in. He thinks about things for a minute before raising his hand, curious about how he can help out even in the situation as is, knowing his skills aren't that good for direct help, but perhaps they can be applied.
"I have a friend in the EMT." Magnus speaks up once the speech is done. "I can say without a shadow of a doubt that her job is literally killing her, or it was before she had a nervous breakdown after some personal drama. She worked an average of twelve hours a day and the things she did required precision and focus. She was under constant pressure, and I think it is safe to assume the same is true for the current staff of the EMT. It is a dirty, thankless, underpaid job for our last line of defense when it comes to protecting the lives of our citizens. I have personally hosted events in the past to raise funds for the EMT service, however in addition to their group demanding trained specialists, it also requires expensive and difficult to maintain equipment."
"The K9 stand tall and strong on our own, we do what we can to grow without the assistance of the government. This is at least what I have seen, and what I love about my unit. If the city is so stripped for cash, then... and I can't believe I am saying this since the police Chief is gonna pop a gasket once he finds out, but we can make do with less funding if the EMT receive it instead. Much the same for the Fire Department, a few months back, I took place in a rescue effort to save people from a burning building. There were no casualties, but only because the brave men and women who stepped in and volunteered were so heroic in their efforts. The Fire Department can not be left to rely on the chance help of others when shit hits the fan again, and it will. It always does. If our fire fighting brothers and sisters are in dire need, then I suggest you show the footage of the fire I mentioned to the fat cats holding all the cash. Gods forbid one of their houses catch on fire and the Fire Department can't respond on time..." Magnus squints quietly and tucks his hands behind his back.
Merv Merv holds up a milk bottle. I.. remember I used to get shot at while flying around. Since that's not a thing anymore ... We have some leftover milk now with less hole to patch. Do the medics have an issue with first aid supplies that might add to a flock or pride?
Bilyso starts curling up for a nap before quickly remembering where he is and snapping to attention
Korune shakes his head solemnly, "Thank you for your support officer Ottkins. And I'm afraid not, EMT's require specialized medical equipment that would not risk contamination to the patient, the risk of mutation occuring during critical care is a huge risk to their life as such we can only provide purified and sanitized equipment for treatment." He pauses for a moment, "Any other questions?" If there are none he steps down from the podium.
Willy starts to say in a firm voice. "Um, yes, I was wondering if there was any way someone would be able to help on a techical level. Reason being is that while I don't really have the medical skills to take part directly in services, I believe I could help out with techincal needs, by my computer skills and with my Techical abilities."
Anagram mentally sets aside his plans for law enforcement, and returns his attention to the current problem of EMTs. Not something he can deal with right now, but knowing that equipment is in high demand, he might use this bit of information later when making his investments.
The fennec rubs his forehead. This was a lot of stress that he was not used to dealing with. Doing this wasn't like the thrills of tracking and taking down the perps like he did on the beat. He feels the discussion has veered away from his area of expertise, so he draws in a few breaths and resigns himself to take a seat off to the side, coincidentally near where Sasha was sitting. Noting the change in color and having scented something on her when she'd approached, he raises a brow and discretely sparks a conversation with her, quiet enough that no one overhears...
Sasha nods a bit about what Magnus says again, biting her lip for a moment before looking and addressing him more directly, "My sister, Aimee, is in generalized medicine for Fairhaven, should I talk to her about relocating to being an EMT? I have to admit, I wasn't aware it was quite that bad there." Her voice is much softer than she's ever spoken around Magnus, a particular scent starting to waft off of her as well.
Mr Jupiter though nods a bit at what Korune is saying, "I see, yes, that is very concerning. I will see what can be done to assist in getting more personel and shore up funds for those departments. This does indeed sound critical and I-" He stops for a moment, tail sticking directly out before it returns to its normal waving, a smile upon his face, "Indeed, I'll recommend that the offical perscribed punishment for a minor violation of lesser laws, such as traffic laws, be three weeks manditory community service as a volunteer level fire fighter! Jessica," he says, looking over to the Fennic assistant he has, "write that down, thank you." He says before looking again to Korune.
Merv looks at the milk vial confused. Melody opens it an checks it. Yes that's pure alright. Pure Blue Gryphon Milk and nanites. "What's wrong with?" he chirps absently while she sniffs it.
Korune nods to the fox-taur, "Without the practical training of a fire fighter, we could always use you for dispatch or equipment maintenance. Feel free to drop by and see how you might want to apply yourself." He then turns to Mr. Jupiter with a wince, "Thank you Mr. Jupiter for the consideration, however I warn about the training requirements and field of danger that the fire brigade is subjected to in the line of duty. I hardly feel that subjecting civilians to such a punishment in a mandatory practice is constitutional let alone effective in remediation of behavior. I would suggest perhaps giving the accused an option of paying a larger monetary fine OR civil service in the hope that them agreeing to the alternative of the fine provides a space for their personal commitment to the civil service. Would you want someone who had run a red light and performed involuntary manslaughter holding the firehose or trying to pry you out of a burning building?" the chimera debates.
The Fox Taur nods. "Thanks I'll look into it after the meeting" he says, before he softly sits back down in his bench chair, and calmly listens to more of the conversation, relaxing his tails all the while.
Sasha seems to be very concerned with Magnus near her, the glow and soft scents from her picking up, until something happens that has her jerking away from the fennec slightly, and putting her attention back to center stage, "I'm... not entirely sure what this 'constitutional' is and what a person's ability to resist disease, poisons, and general physical fitness would have to do with indirect firefighting." She says, "But as for having minor criminal offences lead to manditory community service, that sounds like a good idea, assuming they aren't expected to perform any critical or sensative functions." She says, before just looking at Magnus and giving a nod.
The representative nods a bit, both to Korune and to Sasha, before looking about, "Alright, I feel that this has been a very productive meeting. Thank you all again, we have some good ideas on where to go with our future endevors, do we have any other pending business needing discussion before we wrap up for the night?"
Merv chirps "Thanks for not shooting us any more? We'll avoid the helicopter... even if he looks friendly."
Korune steps down from the podium a little frustrated but hopeful that maybe something will move in the right direction.
Bilyso dooks, "I thought I had something to say but I can't seem to remember it right now and I don't think it was too important anyways. Thanks for letting me listen in."
"I said what I had to say. The K9 will keep doing what we're doing. Hopefully soon we'll be able to do so without worrying about imaginary borders." The fox dusts his uniform off and nods. "Now we get to see how long it takes for things to improve, if at all." He casts a glance towards Anagram and smirks softly. "Send me a copy of the records and transcripts. There's a bag of money in it for ya."
