Heavier - November 17th meeting - Morgan - 11-18-2018
For once, Morgan found himself feeling a bit tired. Not bored, not sleepy, but tired. It had been quite a while since there was so much to do in Tanglewood, yet things seemed to be unfolding before him at a quick rate. He found it hard to climb onto the statue, and he found it harder to raise his voice for everyone to hear. Things just felt... sad.
"I hope everyone's ready for this week's meeting. It seems like it's not been too long since the last one, but here we are again... I'll start by naming and welcoming all our newcomers like I usually do. Ignis, Jethro, Jim, and Kliment - I welcome you all to Tanglewood. I'm sorry things are difficult right now, but I'm sure things will... get better soon enough..." He sighed, then added, "I've noticed young Beleth was out and about this week, so I'd like to welcome him in a small way as well."
"Next is promotions and demotions. I've got one promotion this week: Beck is now going to be a Chaser." Morgan paused for a good five seconds, lost in thought. "That was very weird to say. Anyway, I also have a few shout-outs: a set for the usual suspects, Leroy and Vigenere; one for Kiira, who seems to be much more active recently; and a set for some of the promising newcomers, Lancer and Kris. I've also got one badge to give this week: a Gatorbait badge for Axle. Thank you for being here and for being so loyal, friend." He put on his best smile as he spoke about his comrades' achievements and floated the skull-shaped badge toward its recipient; however, his expression did not last long before it returned to something of a frown."We... we lost two of our own this week. Whisper, a recently-returned Tangler who some of you may or may not know, and Delilah - the only member of the Tanglewood Medical Team." The General paused again, finding it difficult to say what he had to say next. "We'll be holding a funeral for them this week in the new mausoleum. Please, please go if you can. They were family to us." He neglected to mention where the perpetrators were from; the fewer Tanglers who knew, the better it was for the time being. There was little need to stir up bad blood with another group when they literally just lost their only medic. "I won't be holding Medic tryouts since I only know the very basics; if any of you want to become the next generation of Medics, please let me know privately. I'll figure something out by the time we have the next meeting."
After taking another long pause to clear his head, the samoyed said, "The hunt for gators continues; I'll be setting up another hunt pretty soon, so look out for that. Otherwise, that's all I've got for this week. I guess if anyone has some ideas for new badges, let me know privately so I can get to work making them. It's weirdly exciting to give those things out, but with only eight of them I don't usually get the chance." He tried to smile again, but his face only wound up reaching a neutral appearance. "That's it, then. Stay safe, my friends."

Like, weekly meetings. Which strikes Jim as a little strange. As captain, he hadn't done meetings more than he had to. It was just too much effort. .. But, judging by how much the guy was talking, this was probably a good thing. It seems like it'd keep things organized and keep newcomers up to date. Pretty cool, if Jim said so himself, if a little boring for him to listen to. He never liked listen to other people go on long tangents. Jim still hadn't invested himself in Tanglewood culture, though. He just wasn't the type to really care, except he should because he lives here now. He doesn't know the rankings, though they're understandable, at least. Seriously though, why the hell was the badge called Gatorbait? Should Jim be concerned? Maybe not, but he is a little concerned about the actual deaths. What'd happened? He'd push for answers, but Jim doesn't think it's his place. He never knew them, and the only way it really affects Jim is that the medic was dead. Which sucks. "Aye," Jim murmurs under his breath towards the end of the announcements, tail swishing. None of it really applies to him, but that's okay. It takes time to get involved in stuff. ... Well, it did for most people, most of the time. Not everyone got promoted to First Officer right away immediately. [glow=black,2,300]— ✰ —[/glow]

Brief the raise of thought, better to simply leave them be for this was not his place, nothing but temporary shelter until he could next move on. Though the words touched upon tongue for but a moment bitter was the lie within, burning as it lingered across the muscle. It mattered not how much he may wish to return, allow his life to continue as once it had, there was no chance to such coming about. Upon the outskirts the wildcat lingered, tap of paw upon the moss strewn ground the only mark of the worry building in his chest. Half hearted was his attempt to listen, barely taking in the words spoken. It felt wrong being here, taking part in something he had no right to be present for, better it was left to those that actively wanted to be here or else proved an actual part of the workings of the group. Eimi was nothing but dead weight clinging to the edges, wanting some part yet terrified to make the first move to do such. |
