text - PSA from Attleton Guardian's office

[captain_by_the_book]

The effect on Attleton has faded. The town is safe to return for all who have evacuated, life is starting to return to normal.

An announcement regarding the October projects which had to be rescheduled will follow once normal conditions have been restored, at which point the Guardian's office will also hear your concerns.

Uh, well I think he's supposed to be a merman kinda, but I'm wearing shorts. And some bracelets and stuff. But most important, he has a trident!

[captain_by_the_book]

Oh, a merman, I have seen these around! Especially while we were all transformed. Having a weapon is good, although a trident sounds impractical.

[ Why would you want a trident when you could have a blaster? If rifle-toting mermen aren't a thing yet they totally should be! ]

[melodiouspacifist]

Yeah, kinda. I've never met him or anything, so I don't know if he's really a merman.

[He giggles.]

But I've been a merman. It's really fun! [He clearly has a water fetish of some kind.]

What's wrong with a trident? It's pointy.

[Hey. Hey Cassian. His sitar is his weapon.]

[captain_by_the_book]

Well, for one thing, you can't fire a trident as a long-range weapon.

[ Please don't mention that you're gonna make him cry. What is wrong with good old blasters for Force's sake!?

Cassian gives him a deeply disapproving look. He is so disappointed in your tastes, Demyx. ]

It's an impractical weapon. You need to get close, it's too large to be easily hidden, it attracts attention.

[melodiouspacifist]

Oh yeah, I know. Poseidon does...[Wait. How does Poseidon fight again?]

I don't know what he does, actually. If I had to fight, I'd just use my water anyway. That's gotta be like Poseidon.

[He scrunches his nose a bit. Close ranged fighting. Ick.]

I don't think this trident will do as much damage as my sitar does so...I think it's just a prop.

[captain_by_the_book]

Well that's disappointing.

[ And he gives the trident a scathing look, as if it had personally offended him. Such a subpar weapon, disappointing all around. ]

I would like to see your water powers in action one day. I'm curious about their capabilities.

[melodiouspacifist]

Okay! Remind me sometime!

[captain_by_the_book]

I will. When things are back to normal in Attleton I will. There's a battle colosseum, we could train in it... I don't think anybody would appreciate even more damage to the garden.
