It's their jobs, I get it. But I also wish we'd had a little bit of leniency given we're heroes in training or whatever.

[ ... ]

All things considered this is one of the nicer places I've been stuck in, even if I wish my power wasn't stripped here, too. [ he shrugs. ] They can't keep us forever, so probably tomorrow? I think we got off fairly simply.

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-25 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ i mean. they definitely can keep you there forever, nico. jails often do that. but danny's not gonna point that out ]

Yeah, it could've been worse. This might be their idea of leniency as it is.

But if you're out tomorrow, that's not so bad. Let's just hope it doesn't go on your criminal record. If that's a thing they do here.
resumed: (annoyed ♕ ughhh)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-25 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's fine don't ask nico how many places he's gone and broken in and out of he shouldn't be in. ]

Maybe if I get a record here they'll send me back early. [ joking. ] ...but no matter what they needed to know people weren't going to stand for having a decision like this made for us.
foreverphantom: (enjoy it while you can)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-25 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ okay well that's different but good for him, now just break out of here C8 ]

...you think it'll change anything?
resumed: (neutral ♕ watch the hair)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-25 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Of course not. [ easily. ] But only because it's the first time we've done this and it's only been a week. If change happened overnight we'd be home already.

[ it just means that perhaps he will continue to cause problems over the next few weeks. ]
foreverphantom: (it's the hour of the wolf--)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-25 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
So does that mean you're already making plans for future break-ins if needed?
resumed: (grin ♕ a-plus choice)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-25 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Even better, I'm hoping for plans to prevent any more trials and arrests going forward. At least for us. Aren't we supposed to be "the good guys" here?
foreverphantom: (you left us here to burn)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-26 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. But how are you thinking of doing that? [ preventative action is always harder than reaction... ]
resumed: (neutral ♕ watching and waiting)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-26 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ well he sure as fuck doesn't know come monday when the new rule hits.

but for now he is just. discreetly pointing at a few cops who are lingering nearby to make sure the new heroes in training don't get too out of hand. ]


It's better not to talk too much while we're here, but the biggest one is maybe finding a way to make sure people are back at their dorms by a certain time. If the doors lock again, that leaves us all too scattered and vulnerable otherwise.
foreverphantom: (we've only got so many tricks--)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-26 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ nods ]

Much as I hate the idea of a curfew...it might actually be needed.
resumed: (neutral ♕ whatever you want)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-27 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
If it'll keep people safe and accounted for, I'm all for it. Trying to implement it is going to be the difficult part though. I can't think of a lot of people who'll easily agree to staying inside after a certain time.

[ himself included. ]
foreverphantom: (they were looking for survivors)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-28 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it feels a little too much like being back in school.
resumed: (neutral ♕ you think that's it?)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-28 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
We have a curfew, kind of, at camp, but it's still easy to ignore if you ignore the harpies that check the grounds after lights out. [ thoughtfully. ] But on the other hand if it's going to help us...maybe we have to phrase it that way.
foreverphantom: (i've been waiting)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-28 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
What, calling it a curfew?

No way, that's just gonna make everyone want to break it even more.

resumed: (unsure ♕ if you say so)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-28 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
What? Dude, no, I meant about calling it a safety precaution. Obviously nobody's gonna listen if we call it a curfew.
foreverphantom: (the escalator breathing)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-28 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

Well, some people would still take "safety precaution" as a challenge...[ SIDE EYE AT NIMONA ] ...but I don't think anything would keep them indoors anyway.
resumed: (neutral ♕ all these thoughts)

[personal profile] resumed 2023-09-28 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ he brings a hand up to scrub over his face tiredly. ]

The most we can do is see how things shake out next Thursday. If it looks like we might be heading in that direction, we'll try to convince people. And if we can't tell, then...we'll do our best to work with what we've got.
foreverphantom: (whenever it may please me...)

[personal profile] foreverphantom 2023-09-28 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ nods ]

Not much of a plan, but...it's not like we can really tell what'll happen either.
