[The part of Victor's mind that is skeptical of politics is quietly hidden behind a facade of calm interest as he listens to everyone's points. His usual medical wear hasn't been foregone. It's one thing to show a sense of style; it's another to let it cloud people's impressions of who you are. It isn't right to fool them to approach you, either.
He is scrawling notes when his turn is up, presumerably his thoughts about how the debate has progressed - so he winds it up and approaches the podium. The most he has done with his appearance is to plait his hair so it isn't in the way.]
I feel imPorts with opinions on this matter are as divided about our role as the local communities themselves. But there could be a unified role for us all in supporting metahumans and the other members of their communities as they determine their future.
[He strokes his chin without moving his head.]
We might be fundamentally divided over the length our outreach should extend, but it is important that all recognize that what is idealogical debate for us is a discussion that will define the futures of millions of people - particularily those living on the fringes of society.
If we encourage co-operation, we must understand the implications; that we are asking non-powered members of the wider community to accept peace with very little justice for their own disadvantaged lives. My position is therefore we recognize our place and primarily leave the native community to have the debate about their future in relative autonomy. It is their sons and daughters, friends, mothers and fathers who have suddenly found themselves with new lives - not ours. Besides, it's hardly imPorts who will have to judge whether to accept suggestions or judge whether they they go too far.
Suffice to say, we should impose limitations on ourselves in regards to how much we want to influence the wider community's determination of its future. There ought be no assistance without invitation.
