Guys
I am just the right amount of buzzed right now. Thank you Regina.
So FMK?

I've had quite a bit of time to consider everything in the two weeks that I've been in this room. In that time, I found myself unable to judge any of you for the choices that you made in the arena. I'm no stranger to making choices that seem right at the time but in the end turn your acquaintances - perhaps even your friends - into your enemies. My past is littered with these moments. It won't happen overnight but in time you'll be able to put those choices behind you. Some relationships will recover though the journey to that will not be easy. And some may never recover. The outcome is dependent upon what YOU do from this day forward.
For those looking to talk to or sit with someone who understands what it means to live with having taken a life, I'm here. My experience with this is unfortunately quite extensive. I am also here for those who are struggling with the reality of having died and been brought back to life. Though, keep in mind, that I have only experienced this once before.
Everyone is welcome to help themselves to the bottles of whiskey, rum and the decks of cards that I've just conjured. You'll find them on a table in the center of the main ward. There is more than enough for everyone to share, so please, try and be civilized about it. I'll make it all disappear faster than you can blink if I see otherwise.
I owe you an apology.
So we're not dead. That'sprobablygood.
Has anyone done a debrief?
Hey - do you have anything that can help some of us sleep without breaking into nightmares every night?
I didn't really plan to wake up, but I guess it makes sense after London.
We're in Alfa, and I'm going to guess that we're locked in and can't communicate with anyone outside of this.
I've got your dad here with me. I'll do my best to look out for him. We're just penned up inside, right now. It's not bad. I miss you.
So. The plan shaping up among the last list of people we had to work with was resistance through passive non-performance. I think it's the only real option we have. There are some of you I wouldn't normally cooperate with, but at this point, I imagine we're all kind of ready to hold our noses. We all have people we want to keep safe. Can we put aside the urge to put the well-being of our personal friends over the common good, which is what got us into this mess in the first place, and make an agreement? None of us benefit from the tribalism and selfishness that got us here. Let's just do this.
You guys want to have lunch together in the training center?
At last tally, Sam had 4/8 votes for Council and I had 3/8 votes for Jury.There was one abstention.We still need to hear from Kitty, Dean, Sans, and Ron. And Jo still needs to make her vote for Jury. I figure Sam's got it locked down, but I don't want to say anything without hearing from everyone first because that's... y'know, not cool.
If you have another nomination for either position, there's time for that, but make it quick because Captain Rogers seems to want to get this done with efficiently.
[EDIT]
COUNCIL: Sam [7/10] Ron [2/10] Kitty [1/10] - Sam has majority!!
JURY: Audrey [5/10] Ron [1/10] Kitty [3/10]
Apparently, we have to nominate and then vote on a Jury member and a Council member. And it might be a good idea for us all to introduce ourselves in some capacity to each other since we've been designated into this group by the powers that beat Marvel. It's actually a pretty decent group from what I can tell. I have no complaints.
But yeah, since no one else seems overly inclined to do it, I figured I'd take the initiative. Hope no one minds.
[EDIT] Sam Winchester has been nominated for Council and in retaliation has nominated me for Jury, I guess? Ron Swanson has nominated Furiosa for either Council or Jury. And I move to officially nickname our group the Survivor Squad since we're obviously being trained for The Purge anyway.
[EDIT 2] Sam currently has 4/8 votes and Furiosa has 1/8 for Council, I have 3/8 votes and Furiosa has 1/8 for Jury. We need 5 for a majority. There's one abstention. The move to officially nickname the group the Survivor Squad has passed.
Up for hitting the beach with me?
