FEBRUARY SEMINAR OVERFLOW

[maskormods]

WHO: All imPorts who haven't taken the evacuation option!
WHERE: The Royal Mansions Resort in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
WHEN: February 16-20, from 10 AM to 8 PM.
WHAT: ImPorts attend The Perestroika Seminar to receive mandatory training and brainwashing. Need a quick recap? Be sure to check out a brief description of what they'll be doing HERE, though we will be separating this into sections for your reading pleasure! ImPorts will be able to distract themselves with their mental link on the network during brainwashing videos, and imPorts who possess a strong will will be able to resist being successfully brainwashed. We leave the extent of the ramifications of brainwashing up to the individual players, and what they are comfortable with. Please direct all questions HERE.
WARNINGS: Brainwashing, mental manipulation, and possible violence. The original log can be found HERE. Please remember that anything written in this log will not count for AC -- it's just up so that any players who have continued their logging don't need to deal with captcha. Have fun!

[ He just smiles. ] October the fourteenth, and yours?

[5055034455]

[Cue the dismissive hand-wave everyone gets when they ask Saul about his birthday.]

I'm a Gemini. That's all anyone needs to know.

[mightthinkthat]

Oh, come now! Don't deprive an old man an excuse to make fuss of his friend. [ Don't make a sixty year old man pout at you, Saul. ]

[5055034455]

[He's gonna make a sixty year old man pout at him.]

I'm not big on birthdays.

[mightthinkthat]

[ Unbelievable! ]

Well, then! I'm going to have to celebrate with you each and every day. Gemini starts on the on the 21st of May, right? Well, that's where I'll start and I'll simply keep going until you either crack or the 21st of June.

[ And he'll do it, too. He claps his hands in the way one does when the decision has been made and planning has begun - once and followed by a rub. ]

[5055034455]

Aw, buddy.

[Saul clicks his tongue like he's disappointed.]

Didn't I tell you? I'll be out of town.

[mightthinkthat]

Oh, by then, either by Russian or American means, I doubt that'll be an issue? [ The advantages of being power hungry and manipulative, Saul. ]

[5055034455]

[Up go Saul's brows.] Wow.

[mightthinkthat]

[ He sighs. Too far. The boast was only a joke, albeit insofar as he wouldn't abuse his power to stalk the man. Protect him, sure, but he's not quite that needy. ]

I'm serious, let me have one day to spoil you. I don't make friends easily and you're the only one here that makes me feel less like I've been shot dead and revived into a world where I'm a bullet-proof hypnotic ice maker.

[5055034455]

[That...

Gives Saul pause. It's not every day people say things like that to him. He allows himself a few seconds of looking surprised before he forces a grin and gives his best flattered chuckle.]

Aw, shucks, Ambassador. You're gonna make me blush.

[He says, like he just didn't.]

Fine, you win. You want a day, we'll pick a Saturday or Sunday.

[mightthinkthat]

[ Francis is equally pretending he didn't just forget to breathe at Saul's reaction. He smiles, though when he's won. ]

I think the 21st is a Saturday, though given… the changeable nature of the political situation, we ought to decide closer to the time.

[5055034455]

Aha. [Saul grins and waggles his finger Francis's way, then points at his own temple.] Always thinking ahead, this one. I think that sounds like a fine idea.

[Because they could very well all be dead soon!

Who knows!]

In the meantime — we gonna toss that thing around, or what?

[mightthinkthat]

Da, Comrade,

[He smirks, moving back for a decent challenge on the throw. ]
