005 | Attleton Campaign Announcement 2017

[ VIDEO ]

[ Dorothy appears to be standing outside, on one of the sleepy little shopping district streets in Attleton.

She stares at the camera, and then says - utterly serious, completely deadpan: ]

Vote Cassian Andor for Guardian.

His application isn't a joke.

[ And then the video ends. ]

I didn't think it was a joke.

[Rapunzel thought it would have been an odd joke regardless.]

I'm already going to vote for him anyway. I've never actually done it before, so it will be fun.

One of them is a child. The other one is a radio show host.

[ Her voice is just slightly cool, but it's not directed at Rapunzel. ]

It seems they're not taking this seriously.

Offering "free pizza".

Ey Dorothy, hi!

My boyfriend killed his boyfriend, do you think voting for him would count as an apology?

[ Dorothy just.

Stares.

At the screen.

Finally she says: ] ... If that's true.

It isn't your fault.

Hello, Dorothy.

Mr. Andor is one of the few people who seems to take this elections seriously. Are you his campaign manager?

[Dray's ear lowers, that is some serious intense stare there, Dorothy.] It's true.

Maybe not but I feel bad for him. Jaune didn't want to hurt anybody, he was...not himself.

... No.

[ Her eyes widen a bit. She didn't - hadn't meant - ]

... I was speaking as a concerned citizen.

[ It's hard to tell when an android is worried about being awkward and messing things up, but. That's exactly what she is right now. ]

I know.

[ That's what made things so complicated for Dorothy now. She was angry, but there was no productive way to direct that anger.

Not to mention, she wasn't used to experiencing the emotion at all. ]

Many people changed last week, became very different.

From what Kaytwo had said, this man was one of them.

He is clearly the best man for the job.

Ah, my mistake.

[He can tell she is surprised Scott will give her a few seconds to compose herself.]

Maybe you should consider it. That passion is very convincing.

[He's not joking, at that.]

I mean pizza is nice it depends on what they are offering in terms of...What the job actually is, but I guess it does sound a little silly in those simple terms.

Thank you.

I saw you are running for Nova City.

[ She doesn't know they share a world. ]

You plan to work with Cassian Andor and his deputies, should you both be elected?

... I don't know.

[ Passion? That's not a word people usually use when talking about anything she does. For a moment, she wonders if he's teasing him.

But, then she remembers. Scott knows someone who's like her. In his own world. She reconsiders. He might be sincere? ]

... I'll think about it.

I suppose they'll both state what they offer in the debates.

I do not have high expectations.

[ Sorry, she's not someone who shares your optimism right now. ]

That's fine. It's just an idea to consider.

[Yup, Dorothy reminds him of Viv. He would never make fun of any of them.]

You're very level headed, you could run for guardian yourself one day if you wanted i'm sure.

...

[ And she will consider it, Scott. ]

I don't believe I'd make a good Guardian.

I also don't want the position.

[ Deputy Guardian was another matter. ]

[Good!]

I think you could be a great one but if you really aren't interested, I can't blame you. [And he won't press the issue.]

This next election is going to be interesting, specially for Attleton.

...

"Interesting" is one word to use.

Yes. Some of the candidates are...well, unusual.

I suppose there's no age requirement.

[ Or the child wouldn't be running, for example. ]

There doesn't seem to be which is really weird. But maybe it's because a lot of the adults here are non humans and, technically speaking, underage.

I would think the standard would be measured, based not on an arbitrary number, but when that species or type of sentient person matured.

[ A pause ]

And, if it was based on maturity, it would disqualify many adults as well.

Of course. We have worked together even prior to him becoming a Guardian.

[There was mutual respect there.]

I'm glad to hear that.

I look forward to seeing you in the debates.

I am very interested to hearing what you have to say.

I am looking forward to it.

[He certainly wants to prove himself to be the best candidate and is taking the entire thing very seriously.]
