[with all the weird going ons in this place ironwood was convinced that this place wasn't normal at all. it was strange, it was as though it was filled with the magic they knew about back home, and his suspicions were only confirmed the more he found out about this place.

alright, time to finally make his move.]

Hello everyone. I understand that I have been here before, for a time, but I must stress that I have no recollection of it at all. I also understand that I had been acting idle the last time as well, and that will not be the case this time around.

I am working on creating a sort of Elite Security force- which by my understanding, would only be called in with permission from respective guardians. Of course, I am not here to break any rules, so if a guardian doesn't approve of my forces, they will not set foot in that city.

So, I am reaching out to all of you- would any be interested in my Security team? I will have to see your skills for myself, after all.

In light of recent... events [all these transformations and weird monsters.] ...We can begin proper examinations of strength after this has all passed.

private to weiss;

[as much as he hates to lower himself, even a little, he has to thank weiss.]

I have to give you my thanks for warning me of the rules of this place beforehand. You're right, it would have been rather... embarrassing for a general to be put in jail.

private to winter;

Report in, Schnee.

[Jaune currently has a pair of demonic wings which aren't very visible in the camera, and horns which are.] Hey Iron General...Ironwood. So what kind of plans do you have for your security team? Do you plan to just answer calls or something else? Will you always work together or split up?

[Video]

[ironwoody]

[what was his name again? jaune... arc? right right.]

It will be for anything that requires a little more strength, think of it as... the police, only a little bit more important than that.

Calls, yes, specifically by any guardians that would need us. And we would work together or split up, it just depends on the situation.

Why, Mister Arc, are you interested? [...he is definitely eyeing those horns of his.]

[Video]

[aurabble]

Will you get uniforms and badges? You should get badges. [What's more important than the police?]

Ah. I don't know, but I already work for Weiss and I have a whole sector to protect. Sorry. But good luck, I was just curious about how it would work. [He notices and pretends not to.]

[schrodingersghost]

Just who would be in charge of this elite security force?

video

[ironwoody]

I would, it would be my Elite Security. I am a general, after all, I want to uphold that sort of status here.

Re: video

[schrodingersghost]

What, like the army?

[Danny eyes him suspiciously. As much as he wanted to protect the people here, and as much as working with a group sounded interesting, Danny had plenty of good reasons to be suspicious of any kind of organized force. The government back in his own world had taught him that.]

How will you decide when to get this group involved in things?

[Video]

[om_nom_namur]

Damn we're gonna have a lotta security forces runnin' 'round. What's yer policy on moonlightin'?

[Video]

[ironwoody]

That all depends. Care to give me an example?

[Video]

[om_nom_namur]

Like if some bloke that's got yer gig starts gettin' bored cuz there's like. Not a lotta shit goin' down for an army t' deal with at the moment. But his buddy's got this sweet gig where they go 'round helpin' people get from one place t' 'nother in safety, an' that place's busy as shit cuz people's scared t' walk 'lone. Or maybe yer bloke wants t' take up bounty huntin' on the regular. Wouldja let 'im?

[youfool]

[Ted's super interested in stuff that has to do with life saving.]

That sounds interesting! Well, except anything sedentary, of course. Would you be willing to accept reserves? Merely watching isn't quite in my wheelhouse.

[ironwoody]

Of course, I will accept all sort of interest. I will, however, need to test your strength and skills at a later time.

[fade_to_black]

[Blake does a bit of hesitating before responding. There's not much she's good at aside from reading and fighting and book hunting only pulls in a little as it is. Still, she can ask more about it without definitely committing.]

Do you mean you'd be like the police?

[ironwoody]

Something like that. Though it would be for special cases in which the guardians would want us.

It may be a bit excessive, but I have learned that being prepared is much better than being outmaneuvered. [like what had happened to them before.]

[ Admittedly it's been some time since she's heard his voice, so of course initially it had surprised her. There's the issue of... well... certain things she'll have to address with him, but she's undoubtedly happy that he's not only back but taking appropriate charge.

Her expression is firm and a salute in place when the video turns on, her bangs covering her right eye more than usual. ]

Reporting in for duty, General.

[ Her tone is firm, direct and dignified as it always was, expression completely unwavering. as she answered him like she would if they would have been back home. Though a lot's happened since she'd last seen him, she's not going to let him know about that yet. ]

Video; || Private

[ironwoody]

[yes, he is definitely taking charge this time around. it was good to see winter, at least he definitely had one ally that would listen to him.

when she gives him a firm salute he nods, giving her a brief one right back.]

Excellent. So, I have already been told by your sister that this place is quite different from normal. Tell me, how long have you been here? I want you to catch me up on everything.

[video]

[rejected_trash]

Sounds interesting at least. When you say see your skills what do you mean?

[video]

[ironwoody]

Combat, strength, cunning, anything that would assist a proper security team.

PRIVATE.screams i wrote a tag, forgot to submit it and shut the other computer down HERE WE GO AGAIN

[whiteas]

[ Weiss would definitely disagree that it would be lowering himself to thank her. ]

You're welcome. I.. suppose I could've been a little less terse about it. [ At least she's recognizing she's been rude. ]

You have my permission to put your headquarters in Nova City if you need a place. Though, I would advise temporarily against taking this strange alien-looking thing named Frieza as an enemy. There are plans in the work for him, but he's not someone who can be taken care of by.. common means.

[ It's why she hasn't approached him directly, but she's discussing with David Haller how to handle that. In case he's wondering why she hasn't tried to stop the guy who keeps breaking a bunch of windows and acting like he's the big boss. ]

private;

[ironwoody]

Nova City it is. [off to a good start here.]

I had seen that man around- and I was waiting for more information as well. I don't have an army here, just a security force that I'm trying to build, so I wouldn't be able to step in even if I could.

You're saying he's far too powerful, then? [noted.]

[ghostofrazgriz]

[Blaze isn't a fan of having to respond in video in his current state - what with having pointed ears, slitted pupils, a mark of scales of forehead and all - but as one of the Guardians, this isn't something he can brush off for the time being. It gives him a bad feeling in his gut. Despite his serpentine status, he appears on the feed with stern face and tight military posture.]

And what would this "Elite Security Force" of yours do in the cities?

video;

[ironwoody]

[oh hello blaze, nice ears.]

Protect and serve. Mostly we would help the guardians.

[notquitedracula]

What sorts of skill sets are you looking for? And perhaps more to the point, what is your view on moral objection to a given duty? [Someone's heard way too many of Arikado and Yoko's horror stories about bureaucratic bullshit missions.]

[ironwoody]

Sets of skills that would be an asset for a security team. I shall see if you can fight, defend, if you can figure out certain scenarios- that's what I'm looking for.

As stated, the team would be assisting any guardians, so it would be for them to decide. However, If I feel my team would be... aiding a losing battle, then I wouldn't let them deploy.

[so really, he talks with the guardians and will make the call in the end.]

video;

[truesmiles]

It would depend on what you mean exactly by security. Everglade is very different compared to Genessia, Nova City and Attleton, so admitedly I am curious to know how you it would work in the city I help protect.

[A pause.]

I am not saying it's a sure thing yet though, I must add.

video;

[ironwoody]

Well then, if you would be willing to work with me then we can figure out what security would suit each sector best.

[don't be suspicious he's just being a general.]
