Morgan worked all morning to get the square ready for his meeting: similar to his party the previous week, it was covered in a layer of fluffy white snow. The sun was doing plenty of work to melt it all, but in defiance the samoyed put effort into keeping it frozen using his powers. After enough time, a small but noisy crowd gathered around the statue upon which he sat.

"Hello, hello,"
the General called out, smiling wide. "It's meeting time! I hope you all enjoy the snow out here today. Think of it as a little treat - we don't see it too often down here."
"I'll start this meeting by welcoming our new Tanglers: Marlon, McCoy, and Revan. I'm hoping you'll all enjoy your stay here."
Morgan took a moment to consider how long it had been since he began saying such things to every newcomer; it had already been nearly five months, yet things still continued to feel new. "Oh, and I've got some promotions and shout-outs this week. First, I'll give shout-outs to Beck, Jim, Kiira, and Leroy - thanks very much for being around, guys - and then I'll be promoting Crow to a Chaser, Aya to the position of a Guardsman, and..."
He took a slight pause for effect; he was not originally going to make this decision so soon after Vigenere's departure, but he knew he had to do it eventually. "Arrow will be our new Captain of the Guard for the time being. Congratulations to all of you."
"The Ascendants invited us to two events this last week: a 'Christmas party', and a 'blind dating' meetup. Feel free to go to either of those if you've not already. Otherwise, the long-range combat event is still going, as well as my little snow party. I'm thinking of making a bonfire to celebrate the new year since we haven't had a big one in a while, but we'll see."
Morgan paused again, but this time in surprise: he really did not have anything else to say, it seemed. "I... I think that's it. Very quick stuff, but sometimes things just happen to be that way. Please enjoy this snow, and find me if you've got any questions."
