◌ 009 ◌ I'm pretty sure I didn't sign up for this...

[A CAT text, filtered to all 'new residents'. This way, she can be a bit more concise.]

Everyone, I have some very interesting information to share with you.

Upon the Sheriff's recommendation, I messaged the Mayor directly to ask about this 'new resident program' of his. I'm pleased to say that after some time, he did reply personally.

Now, both him and the Sheriff were surprised that I'm even asking about this, because they are under the impression that we signed up to be here. Well, have a look at the video that he sent me - I've managed to attach it to this message.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure that I didn't sign up to be here. But I believe that we did all have that mysterious flash and the tall man in a black suit, with a black hat, I think? And perhaps carrying something. So, I tried to ask the Mayor if his recruiter looks like that. I also asked if I could review my application to the program.

However, my request was met with more lovely resident side-stepping. Miss Osculia replied that the applications are confidential and not available to view after they've been submitted. Now, do any of you know about privacy laws? Because I'm quite certain that there should be nothing restricting the one who filled out the form from reviewing it. If you can think of an argument so that we can see our forms, it might be worth a try.

Either way, I hope this helps. Miss Osculia's supposed to let me know when the Mayor is available to 'address my concerns'...

[...but Fuu blinks at that for a moment. He's asking her?]

I'll do what I can!


[ooc: aka, I'll ask the mods XD]

Thank you.

It took a bit, but I found the law books at the library!
There's a lot here to go through... would you like me to bring them over to you?

[collector]

Oh, I assure you, it takes a very complex set of laws to deter me. Would you drop what you can find off at the door? I've come down with something of a cold and I wouldn't want to risk getting you ill.

[text]

[wind-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Yes, I can do that for you.
I'm really sorry to hear that you're ill! Can I bring you any medicine or anything else? I'm really sorry I can't help more than that...

I have a strong constitution. Jazzercize, remember? Don't worry a thing about me.

[text + action!]

[wind-of-reason.livejournal.com]

[pfft. Of course she worries.]

Right. Okay, I'll bring the books by.

[A little while later, Fuu leaves five large leather-bound books on his doorstep, with a neatly wrapped package on top. Inside is a selection of pastries and biscuits from the tea shop, a box of English Afternoon Tea, and a note saying simply "Get well soon!"]
[She knocks on the door gently to let him know she's come, but doesn't stay.]


[ooc: About the laws (from the mods): "They're standard laws like any town in the US has, but there is a provision about the Luministi Revival Program applications and how they become property of the office of the Mayor the moment they're submitted and cannot be viewed again no matter what."]

[He sends a text a few hours later.]

You're not going to break through these. The letter of the law is rather firm on this one, and the spirit would overrule you even if you could twist the laws into something. It isn't merely that they can't; they don't want to. So they won't.

[Only a few hours! Wow, he's good!]

Ohh, darn. But it just makes me want to see them even more...
And why would they want to protect it so fiercely when we came voluntarily? More and more fishy, I'm afraid.

[text]

[collector]

Keep that in mind. Bad liars tend to break when confronted with the flaws in their own lies.

[wind-of-reason.livejournal.com]

[Ponders that thoughtfully.]

I'll do that. Thank you.

Would you like for me to return the books? They are good for two weeks, but I'm happy to take them back if you like.

[text]

[collector]

No, I'll take care of it myself. Thank you.

All right. (But watch out, the late fines are very expensive!)
You're welcome! Take care.
