Honora Castellum

-I come in and kill everyone-


















OOC Sorry, was just screwing with you rofl...

OOC You couldn't have posted that in the middle of the battle????? Or when whats-there-faces were being mean to Liria? lol

OOC I know, lol I just wanted to break the mood a little bit lol okay back to serious...

IC

-I smile and kiss her back- Thanks darling... that makes one of us... -we walk in and all the 6 Strayers sit down... all silent, clearly no one knows how to begin this...-

OOC lol

IC I feel uncomfortable...I didn't know whether any of these people blamed me for what happened-

Artemis: -ahem- Let me be the first to say, I'm terribly sorry for what has happened to us and I will miss everyone we have lost...

Artisan: As will I...

Crest: Same with me...

Everyone Else: -mutters in agreement-

I nod silently-

Artemis: -tries to sound more confident than I feel- hmmm... but despite what has happened... they would want us to continue to do the world justice and go through with our plans to reform...

-Walks over to the window and gestures out it- You have now all seen first hand what our old code leads to...

-I start to gain resolve- Many of you may be thinking that our lives were better when we followed the old code... our lives in those days were based on ancient teachings and out of date traditions that were bringing us down. But no one spoke against it because it was a different set of ideas than the established...

When my father, Liria and I came here with a new idea... many of you may have felt we were wrong for turning our backs on tradition... but you listened to us. You came to see the light and embraced the possibility of change for a better future... the ones who did THIS... couldn't. They are the only ones to blame for this... -I look at Liria and smile a little- No one elses but their own...

OOC Dinner, will be on later

I smile back a bit-


OOC K

OOC I lied, roommates watching dumbass show lol

IC

So now... our code was written by just one man... Archimedes Strayer. His intentions were pure, but alas he seemed to lack a little foresight. I am not insulting him, but we need a system that WE all made....

OOC lol and Liria isn't going to say anything until someone adresses her....or if somone says something that she's passionate about..she's really scared of the Strayers right now lol

IC I say nothing-

Artemis: Right so... what do you think we should fix or keep the same first?

Crest: I move that we keep our laws on emotional suppression intact...

I don't think thats a good idea- I say lightly

Artemis: Floor is open to Liria... -I wonder if I sounded official enough-

Great..Thanks so much for the spotlight Artemis

I say out loud- Look...emotional suppression is what got you all into this mess in the first place...I mean think about it....We all have feelings...and it's just natural if we show them...or talk about them once in a while..if we don't we become more like puppets..or weapons...and you can see what the results of that were...- I look sad-

"True strength and honor comes from emotion.."

Artemis: Any discussion?

Crest: Yes, I have some points I would like to bring up... It was not emotional suppression that got us to where we are... it was fear of change... Strayers shouldn't be subject to fear...

It's natural to be scared...- I say trying to keep calm- Strayers SHOULD be subject to fear..that way when they DO get scared it doesn't take them.................................off guard.

Artemis: Shall we put it to a vote? All those in favor of Emotional Suppression please indicate by saying "Aye"...

Crest and 2 other Strayers: Aye!

Artemis: Opposed?

Artemis, Artistan and another Strayer: Opposed!

I groan- Okay look you guys....How many times have I been wrong? Never...so you guys have a choice...You can 1. Argue amongst yourselves for a bit and then come to the conclusion that I was right...or...2. You can just agree about it not being a good idea..and not waste that much time...

I'm not going to argue with anyone right now because I'm not in the mood...- I close my eyes and put my hand to my head where my headache was getting bad..-

-Whispers over to Liria- Ummm... Darling... we're waiting for your vote... you haven't officially cast one yet... just say "Opposed"...

I keep my eyes closed still fighting the pain..- opposed.

Artemis: The motion for Emotional Surpression fails... and now onto the next matter...

OOC Okay I've been to a lot of board meetings in my life and I have absolutely, positively, undoubtedly NO desire to do a full one... so why don't we jump ahead and move onto the most important issue?

OOC I was going to say lol..and yes please skip ahead.

IC As we keep talking and such then pain subsides so that I can open my eyes-

-Several painful hours later-

Artemis: Finally... the last issue. Who is going to succeed my father as head of the family?

Artisan: It should be you bro... you defeated Progenitor and saved Honora Castellum from destruction...

Artemis: -starts getting red- Yes well...

Crest: As well you are our father's oldest son, that makes you next in line...

Artemis: -Bright red- Indeed... but...

What do you want Artemis- I interject.
