As The Cities Lay Quiet | Started by: Neon on Sep 10, '12 14:58 |
(OOC: This does look like a roleplay, but if you actually read it, you will realize it is more than something role played out!)
Neon had been busy writing and looking over the week's profit from the businesses. She quickly was interrupted by a knock on the door, lifting her head up from her desk she motioned for them to enter.
“Ma'am, here are south-side’s reports. Everything is quiet there and moving along normally.”
Neon smiled and nodded while thanking the man. She had a couple hours before she had to turn her reports in to DeadlySin. Yet, then a thought came forth in her mind. Many before that man had been mentioning how quiet and calm things were around here now. A few even dared to say things were growing a bit stale.
Lifting her hand she queued her bodyguard to enter her office.
“Yes, ma'am?”
Neon put down her pen and paper to look up at him.
“I would like it if you took it upon yourself to question as many mafioso’s as you can, ask them what they can or would do to liven things up around here. That and perhaps what they would like to see done. I want a full report of what they have to say by the end of the week, please.”
“Some input from the guys who do a lot of carrying the load would be nice to hear. They are the backbone of our life. So make sure you don't just ask those in pretty suits.”
The bodyguard nodded and made his way out of her office to begin his new project. |

Taking a break from inscribing the initials LC in LudariusCane's underpants, LudariusCanesMom responds to the inquiry made by Don Neon Hello my dear, One of the things I've always tried to instill in my Ludarius is to take each day as it comes. This world is what you make of it. Long periods of stagnancy lead to complaints of a world gone too stale. Consecutive wars lead to groans as well. It seems as if a day goes by without non-stop action the claim becomes that this world has become boring. But during slow periods there are often things that can be done or achieved that would break up a monotonous day. Not always, but often enough. Even if its just a matter of preparing yourself for a day that may not be so dull. Bottom line is that people will always complain, be it due to lack of excitement or contrarily too much. It's like I always say to Ludarius, "No one likes a whiner." It's not up to anyone else to entertain you. We are all capable of making things interesting if we so desire. But I applaud you Neon for taking the time to provide a platform to the masses and giving them an opportunity to speak on the matter. I hope people take advantage of this opportunity to speak. LudariusCanesMom steps back inside to prepare a snack for Ludarius |

People gripe that cities are empty. They whine, stating that is the reason things are stagnate, but that isnt the truth. When cities are filled, they whine for war, blood, and uprisings. When these things occur, they whine agian and about losing everything they had. The real truth is, you can never make everyone happy. The best anyone can do is try to make it fun and interesting for your fellow crew members, crew leaders, and associates in the other cities. |

Stepping out of his favorite pub Armageddon was heading back to his HQ when he couldnt help but over hear Neon talking about the stagnant state, making his way closer and after listening to what a few others had to say Armageddon decides to give his thoughts on the subject.
Just like anything we partake in, you have your ups, and of course the downs. There were some big wars not too long ago, which anyone worth their salt knows it takes time to rebuild afterwards. The way things have played out lately I would have to think stale would be a little harsh to say. We are getting a front row seat being able to watch Detroit fill up with the competition taking place, I for one look forward to seeing what comes of that. We also have been able seen Phil move to NO, and more auths in NY, PHI, and LA. But as Ragnarok said people will always find something to whine about, you can't please them all.
Taking a look around Armageddon realized that nobody is really listening, he shrugs his shoulders and countinues anyway.
I like the question you have proposed Neon, I would like to know what those who believe things have been slow around here would do to liven it up, or what would they like to see be done in the future? As I stated before these things take time and call me old fashioned but I would much rather see the right auths set up then someone just having a bold suit because people feel its necessary.
A cool breeze had suddenly stirred things up, Armageddon flips up his collar and takes a sip of his flask to stay warm, taking a step back and waiting for others to comment on the subject at hand. |
