003 | Day 116 | Private Audio to Edgar Stane & Balthazar
Stane?
[She's not sure how else to address him, really. 'Mayor' feels too formal and she's not sure it's entirely accurate beyond his claims, but calling him by his first name is too far in the other direction.]
If you have a few minutes to spare, Balthazar and I would like to talk to you about something. Whenever and however's best for you.

If you prefer in-person to the network, I'm quite game. Probably it doesn't matter as far as being overheard, though, does it?

When and where is good for you?

[By which he means 'seconds'.]
--> Action!
[She can't zap there in an instant like Balthazar can, but she still makes pretty short work of the trip, pushing her way through the front door just a few minutes after her last message. She quickly scans the area for Stane, heading over the moment she spots him.]
Thanks for meeting us on short notice.

It's no trouble. What can I help you with? You said something about safety precautions?
no subject
There will always be sudden disappearances, but it's occurred to us that encouraging residents to keep track of one another might enable us to know more quickly when someone leaves.
no subject
Some of us are lucky enough to have friends from home or housemates we're close to, but there are others who live alone or just don't have anyone here. We were talking about how a town registry might be useful. Something that would be accessible for everyone here to view, and could also be used to pair people up, like a buddy system. Make people accountable for each other.
no subject
I hope you don't think you need my permission to do something like that.

[She nods again, confirming.]
And a little enforcement regarding the buddy system would help a lot. If there's an official announcement for it and the registry is put in place at the town hall, people will take it more seriously.

[She's with you on this, Balthazar.]
Aside from that, I think we can handle the rest.

Could you explain what you mean by a buddy system?

But that's the idea. Just make people accountable for one another and encourage them to use the registry to make note of who's here and who's not, as needed.

[ He smiles, even as he realizes what he's probably going to have to announce in conjunction with this. How much longer can he hold onto this notion? ]
