asgardeventide | Day 475 [Video]

[In spite of the cold snap, Jane is seen out and about the Freyr District in this video. It's night, and she's wrapped up considerably against the snow, which has begun to slow for the time being. It floats in the light of the street lamp she's under, and she gives the feed a very serious look.]

I strongly advise anyone with no particular business to stay indoors tonight. Given the unusual shift in the weather, there's no telling what could happen next, so if it isn't an urgent matter or you're not part of the City Patrol, like myself, then you're much better off by the fireplace with a mug of hot cocoa.

[Her expression sours just a little bit. It'd be nice to heed her own advice, but, well. She signed up to patrol, and by gum she'll patrol.]

Um, that being said, I'd like to put a message out to the others in the City Patrol as well. I was wondering if, perhaps, we could get together and discuss some things, patrol routes and whatnot. I'd be happy to host it, if need be.

[A pause. Jane bites her lip; she wants to make this sound official and helpful and...is she even doing that? Aaaugh...]

Well, erm, have a good night! Stay warm, everyone!

Hoo hoo! I can believe that.

But that will just end in trouble for everyone. The less nutty folks become, the better things work out.

Nonsense! There is always time for friendship. In fact, it's very important to keep your friendships intact in trying situations like this.
I'm speaking from experience, so trust me, a friend can keep your spirits up for quite a while.

[Though not every friend can help you chin up forever...]

It's very important to have backup copies of things! I definitely recommend hard copies.

Oh, I see now! How interesting...

Ah - um, yes! That's what we need it for. It'd be good for pairing people during patrols too, to make sure their powers coincided well.

So where are you hosting us?

If you don't think you can manage it, my boyfriend has a decently sized house. I could see if he'd be willing to let us use it for a couple hours.

My apartment. [She rattles off the address in Freyr District.] It's all I can think of at such short notice.

Really, it's fine!! I've already told people where to go, so...really, there's no use in changing it now, right?

Some are the sort that'd shirk their responsibilities and not want to do anything they were told to.

Yes. I'll definitely do so. Thank you very much for the advice.

[As for the friendship aspect of the conversation, it will leave Soushi pensive over the matter concerning his relationships with other people. Truth be told, he was beginning to miss those he used to interact with, but then he can't help remember the reason he has forcefully eliminated all contact with them to begin with. He almost even wondered if he deserved to have anyone by his side. After all, who wants to be friends with a convict?]

In other words, there was a time your spirits were down, Crocker-san? Does friendship truly help in that aspect? Even if one has committed a terrible crime, is one even deserving of it? Wouldn't it be more proper to distance yourself from them?

[Does friendship really matter in war? He couldn't help allow his negative thoughts and guilt take control of the way he thought. He doesn't believe he deserves it. Not him.]

I'm sure that will be fine.

I don't think we've had an opportunity to speak before, what's your name?

Right. But the offer stands if we need to change locations for whatever reason.

Jane Crocker. And you are...?

Okay! Thank you.

No need to thank me! But you are very welcome.

[See, this is what happens when Jane gives advice to people she doesn't know.]

Yes, that's right. And it did!
Everyone is deserving of friendship, even if they've done something bad.
I think...that so long as the person was sorry for what they had done, and asked forgiveness from their friends, they would get it and repair any bonds that had been broken.

[At least, that's what she hopes will happen.]

Ah, I guess that's true. Geez...that just causes trouble for the rest of us!

Of course.

Too right, and makes everything a lot more bloody dangerous, too.

Seimei Aoyagi. I look forward to working with you.

And I you!
