23rd Aura | Posters in every city excluding Attleton + Video




[Physical copies of this poster have been posted in every city except Attleton. ...Huh, how weird. While Jaune has taken Mercury's advice to lie low, he wants Emerald to win, so he risked taping them up elsewhere to try and spread her publicity. The image is also used on the front of pamphlets he made, with the inside of the pamphlet describing Emerald's objectives, some of her views, and an inspiring story so embellished he mostly made it up.]





[Eventually, after agonizing about it, Jaune decides to make a video supporting Emerald Sustrai. He's even kind of dressed up, wearing a tie with his hoodie instead of just the hoodie.]

Uhm, hi. As Emerald's PR Manager, I'm here to talk about why I've chosen to support her in her campaign for Everglade Guardian. I know a lot of us here want to feel like we're safe. And we like to pretend things are okay.

But we aren't. And that's not easy to admit. We might have a lot of good things going on for us, but at what risk and cost? I've...I've personally experienced this myself, very recently. [His eyes dim, and he averts them for a moment, taking a breath and then staring back at the camera that much more determined.] It's good to do things that make us feel safe, but not if we're just ignoring the problem. Emerald's methods might be unconventional, but I truly believe that's why they'll work. Until we do something about the barrier at Everglade, we're just an open target who won't be ready or know when the next attack will happen. Because it's going to happen. Emerald has always been upfront and honest to me, even when I didn't want to hear it. And I'd rather someone who knows what they're doing, someone who doesn't sugarcoat things and tells it like it is, be Everglade's next guardian.

Because that's the kind of person that we need to make sure we don't keep repeating history.

Jaune Arc. There you are.

[It's difficult to tell whether Grievous is pleased to see him or angry. His tone is more just a flat statement of fact.]

[There's a long silence before he continues.]

I know you were not yourself. I was also not myself.

It is already in the past.

I was returned to my true appearance. I regret that it cannot remain... We have different regrets.

I do not consider you to blame for your actions during that time of crisis. Have those who were lost now been returned to life?

[Grievous assumes that just means they returned to their worlds, not thinking of those who may have always been here.]

Have you spoken to him?
unhappy: (Mercury's a shoe-sniffer.)

These are awful. [ But she looks like she's trying not to laugh. ]

Red is so last Christmas though.
unhappy: (Oh shit that was two syllables.)

What did Grell do to piss you off so badly anyway?

[ she never took him as the type to make fun of people for their clothes. ]
unhappy: (You just made me lose this level.)

People don't care if you're a crappy person as long as you throw money at them. Didn't you figure that out in our world?

[ It's true everywhere, Jaune. Why do you think everything is shit all the time? People who try to do the right thing are the ones who get the short end of the stick. Which is probably bad for Emerald to think as a Guardian Candidate, but she's not exactly a great person. She's more just trying not to get left behind and to show she's willing to try.

And it's going to come right back to her exactly how she thought it would, but that's for a later time. ]

I sure do!

I wasn't very interested in the election, and I don't know anything about Everglade, but you've got me paying attention.
