Hotdog's Inaugural Address (un:hotdog)

[oorah]

So I guess I'm the fucking mayor of this shithole now. Pretty funny for a guy who never voted in his life. I don't know whether to thank the assholes who voted for me or punch you all, but I always was better at punching than saying thank you so you can guess where I'm leaning.

I'm taking this to mean the Natives are washing their hands of us. They don't want to be responsible for what happens next, but they still want to reap the benefits if we manage to make progress with the Sound Eaters. I get why they're scared, but where I come from death is always permanent and patriots lose their lives every day so the people back home can be free. Even if we come back, that doesn't make our sacrifice mean less.

Alright, enough of that bullshit, I'm getting to a point. All of us are going to pool our resources and Soundproof the Communal Houses. I want as many done as possible before the new people get here. We're constructing a Prison too which needs to be fully soundproofed and tough enough to keep shitbags inside. If there's anyone or anything you're worried about coming here from your world, you can let us know HERE. Mike is putting together a book so we'll all be ready. If you want to help, drop off materials at the Clinic, which is always looking for volunteers. Stay tuned for us rehabbing the Hospital too. We need anyone who knows any fucking thing about medicine and repairing androids or whatever that shit is.

No one does anything alone, there need to be witnesses to everything that happens in this crater. If you go out to the Sound Eaters: Bring your device and record. We don't know if the memory loss from the Room is permanent, but it's better not to risk being wrong. We need all the information we can get on those things. I'm doing a trip when the new arrivals get here out to Monster Island. If you want in, let me know.

That's all for now. Hotdog, over and out. [ threadjack to ur hearts content ]

i voted for you, i thought it was an actual hotdog.

[oorah]

[ bless u knife son ] that explains how i won

[nishizono]

does this mean no more stabbing people from now on?

[oorah]

[ how does frank even answer this stop ur nonsense ]

only if they deserve it? i guess. [ or consent...? he gives up making rules is hard. ]

[nishizono]

[ democracy is hard, welcome to mayoralty ]

what if they want to be stabbed.

[oorah]

then we should probably give them drugs or some shit. getting stabbed sucks.

[nishizono]

that's true.

so hey mister mayor can i stab people if they let me?

[oorah]

you don't have to ask my permission for every fucking thing just follow your heart alright [ don't ever do that but he's already frustrated hooray ]

[nishizono]

[ he hehehehe welcome to THIS part of fatherhood: the nagging ]

duly noted

so how's the prison coming along? micro's letting me help rig up the security system but we're still short on cables

[oorah]

he told me i'll find some. did you ask that guy in house one who has the shitpile on the deck?

it's coming. i want to get at least one containment cell in case we have another dirtbag come arrival day.

[nishizono]

tiny? tony? timothy or whatever, that guy
i haven't asked him yet

did ask to see the shrapnel in his chest though
he turned me down

[ GEE, WONDER WHY ]

you expecting a specific one in particular?

[oorah]

[ this story sounds familiar... nah. whatever, he'll ask micro later. ]

could be anything. we all have enemies. maybe that's how the sound eaters came here in the first place. we should be ready.

[nishizono]

[ if tetora cared a little more for names he'd have remembered to ask for tony's last name ]

you really think the "they used to be human" theory holds some credence?

[oorah]

[ frank never even asked for the first so look at them go ]

i don't have theories i just call what i see
maybe they came through as monsters like they are now
maybe they're from some past arrivals world
we don't know dick so all this speculating doesn't get us anywhere fast
that's why i told people to record what they do and see

[ someone learned a thing or two from his brother, gunner henderson. ]

[nishizono]

you'll be glad to know we're doing just that then

me and majima-jisan are gonna lure some of the sound eaters with static noise and try to blow them up
see if bombs can blow them up

we're doing it at the very edge of town, before you get concerned

[oorah]

okay but remember what i said before [ no d y i n g ]
i'll have search and rescue ready

[nishizono]

no dying

[ just to underline and highlight the thing, okay ]

and no need to roll out the red carpet, we can hobble back

[oorah]

it wasn't an offer.
it's what's happening.

[nishizono]

[ oh no, what is this warm blooming feeling??? ]

are you
mothering me?

[oorah]

yes. get used to it.

[nishizono]

okay, dad
i'll check in first thing after the bomb goes off

[oorah]

good.

[nishizono]

just wait for me get back

[oorah]

don't have anything better to do
not like i'm running an entire helltown or anything

[nishizono]

helltown's always gonna be helltown
how much worse can it get?
sandstorms?
everyone hole up and stay quiet, tada
