THERE IS A CRACK IN EVERYTHING

WHO: ImPorts! But especially the NONAH AMBASSADOR CANDIDATES!
WHERE: The Dolley Madison Library in Nonah, North Carolina.
WHEN: Evening, Sunday November 13th.
WHAT: The Nonah Town Hall for an evening of rigorous debate about the issues that matter!
WARNINGS: N/A.

The Dolley Madison Library is a two story structure brimming with books and neoclassical architecture. Clearly a well-funded facility, this library is a bright, warm, and welcoming environment for polite (if political) conversation this evening. The main floor, near the back of the building and behind rows and rows of looming bookshelves is the slightly risen stage destined for tonight's event. It is but a darkly painted plateau nearly a foot off the ground, a little stage intended for reading events and author interviews. Nine simple wooden chairs are set upon the stage, and a microphone greets them all.

The audience portion is complete with organized, open seating and a table of non-alcoholic refreshments. There are muffins and cookies, too, for those of you who have come hungry for both IDEAS and SNACKS.

EACH CANDIDATE gets a time slot to speak about tonight's theme: THE ROLE OF IMPORTS IN RELATION TO METAHUMANS IN A HISTORICALLY NON-POWERED COMMUNITY.

Candidate imPorts may address their solutions and visions, or even drudge up more complications, in response to the thematic prompt. You can be a candidate of hope, or of fear -- it all depends on your perspective. Concerned imPort citizens are allowed to speak with the candidates about their answers, and debate them if necessary. ImPorts are also allowed to debate among each other after the candidates have all spoken.

The event begins at 7PM EST, but may last well into the night.

[ He sticks his hands in his pockets. ]

It does get easier when you have money, doesn't it.

... Mmm. Just so. I'm increasingly glad we have it.

[ Despite still not quite getting it. ]
jacksonian: (uncertain)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It's not a good thing to be short on. Especially here.
dendarii: (solpadeine111)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm finding that out. You've been a lifesaver on that front.
jacksonian: (looking down)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He fidgets a bit. ]

Yeah. Well. I'd like to pull my weight.
dendarii: (eidetics 163)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
... Were you afraid you weren't?
jacksonian: (stressed the fuck out)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
What? - Oh. I mean - sort of.
dendarii: (good point)

[ Miles shakes his head a bit. ]

You do just fine, Mark.
jacksonian: (looking down)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Well. I owe you all a lot.
dendarii: (pls)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
... Have you ever considered that we owe you too?
jacksonian: (incredulous)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
What? No you don't.
dendarii: (frakkingcylon 192)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course we do, Mark. I owe you right now.
dendarii: (034)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
For managing my campaign.
jacksonian: (looking down)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. That's, uh...It's not much work.
dendarii: (cunning plan)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
For you it's not.
jacksonian: (uncertain)

[personal profile] jacksonian 2016-11-15 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It, uh...It doesn't matter. I like keeping busy. So don't - worry about thanking me.
dendarii: (fondness)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Then don't worry about thanking us either.
dendarii: (half pint of trouble)

[personal profile] dendarii 2016-11-15 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, let's go get snacks. I think we're done debating for now.
