Mordecai did not have to think very long. After nearly two years of living on the extreme fringes of Solrise student society, he knew that he would have almost literally jumped at a chance like this, had it been offered.

: "That sounds like an excellent idea. Something relaxed and informal, to let people get used to each other and make friends."

MEANWHILE IN A PARALLEL TIMELINE

Mordecai looked around, feeling a bit awkward, at Isabella's tea arrangements. It was somewhat more elaborate than he was used to, and he wasn't exactly sure if there were ceremonies/rituals involved or not.

: "It seems to me...that some sort of special event might be useful here at Solrise. Some way for those outside the normal social circles to interact with each other. It could be something as simple as this, just sitting down for tea and some talk. The problem is that I have no idea how one would organize such a thing or how to get such outsiders to show up." The vampire spoke slowly, trying to make sure his thoughts didn't run away from him. "I mean, there are already several clubs that exist. How would one more help?"

Blitzgott - Hallways

Blitzgott had been about to embark on the thrilling tale that was his original infection when they were interrupted by the arrival of a small, mousy-looking operator who called themself "Headroom". Fortunately, the oni's boundless confidence left him difficult to shake, and he smiled encouragingly at Headroom.

"So, you are our resident Purveyor of Tidings and News? It is good to meet you, small one. I am confident that you will be a great Asset to this band of Brethren. Or at least, you will be once we have some Sustenance in our bellies. One cannot go to Battle on an empty stomach!"

Hooch - Training Area

Hooch glanced over at Remiel, wondering what he thought of Blitz. She was still pretty confused by the way the oni spoke, but she supposed it did take all kinds of people to make a good mercenary company.

"Well, if you haven't yet been to the Kitchen and Dorms, I'll show you. And if you need any help figuring out where the rest of the facilities are, just make sure to tell me." Setting her cleaning supplies aside (Luckily, she'd managed to get the mess she left behind cleaned up pretty quickly), Hooch began to head to where the Dorms were, glancing behind to make sure Blitz was following. If what she remembered was correct, it was the closer of the two.

Once the two were out of earshot of Remiel (assuming Blitz did follow her), Hooch asked, "So, uh, Blitzgott... mind if I ask why you talk like that? I mean referring to places in such a grandiose fashion? I mean, it's only the Training Area." Already she was thinking of ways it could be improved. Maybe punching bags, or more mats for safety? Replacing the bits of rubble with a proper training course at some point would be a good idea, too...

Blitzgott - Hallways

Blitzgott arched his one good eyebrow at the question. "Why? What do you mean, Boss? Surely, as our Leader you must recognize the Power inherent in certain Words, such as those you might use to Command. What you must also realize is that one can impart Words with Power through the application of Will. Through such acts of Will, one can attract the fickle attention of Destiny and achieve greatness."

Blitzgott made a mysterious gesture as he finished imparting his wisdom, but a loud grumble from the oni's stomach ruined any effect his little speech might have had. "I have understood such matters ever since I Awakened to the Truth of my true potential. An eye is a small price to pay for such Knowledge." Another mysterious gesture resulted in one hand covering his eyepatch.

Blitzgott - Training Area

Blitz's one eye flashed at Remiel's approach, but he kept most of his attention on Hooch (in his own way, at least). With a flutter of cloth, the oni spun round and walked a few paces away.

"I have Known this landship for some time, on the Astral plane, but this is my first physical Encounter with it. I was merely familiarizing myself with the layout, particularly seeking Locations of dark and powerful Emotions, such as this room of Battle. Such a place is the only part of my new Home where my Arts can be practiced safely."

Blitzgott looked over his shoulder so that his good eye stared directly at Hooch and Remiel.

"I have been trapp--meditating in this room for the past 48 hours, and my Eye saw much. For now though...Blitzgott desires nothing more than Sustenance. And perhaps something softer than a cape to sleep on."

Blitzgott - Training Area

Up close, Hooch would be able to see that Blitz is rather slender for an oni (which is to say, still decently well-built for most other races) and wore a patch over one eye. A long scar ran down the length of his face, its center vanishing under the patch - probably from the injury that made an eyepatch necessary in the first place.

As Hooch lectured, Blitzgott's confident smile might have diminished somewhat...but it came back easily enough as she reached her conclusion. He flung one arm out dramatically, making his coat/cape flutter.

"It will be as you say, o wise Leader - or Boss, as you shall be Known - for the mighty Blitzgott is happy to Follow for the time being. I See now that were I to unleash my full Power, poor Remiel could well be lost with his Destiny unfullfilled. However, it is True that this hand of mine thirsts for the glory of Combat. I do rather hope that a suitable Foe will be sent our way soon."

Blitzgott - Training Room

A chuckle echos through the cluttered the training room.

"Ah, so the Tender of Bars offers her Aid like the fine Leader she is. Consider yourself Fortunate, o Remiel, to have her support in your greatest Battle yet."

On a nearby ledge, a shadowy figure appears. His is an odd appearance; an horned man wearing primarily dark colors and an oversized coat that is merely fastened at the neck like some sort of cape. For whatever reason, the oni is facing away from Hooch and Remiel and is covering part of his face with a single gloved hand.

"Tremble in Fear, for your Rival has arrived! I, Blitzgott, the Lightning God, have come to Strike you down in your hour of Peril! Prepare yourself!"

With a dramatic flourish and a crackle of electricity, Blitzgott spins to face his fellow operators...only to overbalance and tumble off the ledge. He still managed to tuck and roll upon hitting the ground level though, and struck a pose upon rising to his feet.

"Er...dost thou have any last Words before we begin our Battle?"

Watching the senate now.  At least one senator (A georgia senator) who intended to object to the election results has changed her mind.  Lots of senators condemning trump and the rioters, and a lot of inspiring speeches.
Wait, what? I thought both senators from Georgia were newly-elected democrats. Why would they be objecting to the election results?

Or is this one of the old senators?

He really should be. This is a situation that deserves getting pissed off over.
