With the Quad in a state of uncertain change, it is imperative that we all do what we can to remain unified. Whether you live for money, for your family, or for your future, no one benefits from unmitigated chaos and organized hatred.

Please, share here your woes, your triumphs - any stories you have to offer from recent days in your lives. Together, we can offer an understanding of the Quad that no individual could ever possess alone. Through a picture painted in all colors - Company, Resistance, Leithan, Westerlyn - we can find an image of our common goal.

Speak to one another. Ask for help. Offer condolences. Seek common ground.

We're all in this together.

i think this is what you call a "public service announcement"

[hydrokinetics]

Good luck getting the public to cooperate, I guess. What gets me is that they keep using "we." Even if it's a PSA they're trying to make it sound like they really get what everyone's going through. The people who really have issues here? Pretty sure there's no time for them to make PSAs, just saying.

[brickinthewall]

you're as paranoid as i am kid

it's all for show

[hydrokinetics]

So really what you're saying is not to worry about it.

And it's NOT paranoia.

[brickinthewall]

ah man I love it when people assume

you and i don't think so sure

most people don't bother to think it through

ergo

you and i are paranoid

[hydrokinetics]

[There's a lull in responses...]

Anybody who isn't even kind of suspicious about this is just asking for trouble, you know? If that's considered paranoid then fine, okay, I'm a little paranoid about random messages from random people.

I'd say "how bad could this be" but I think we can both think of enough scenarios to answer that

[brickinthewall]

[And here she was trying not to care about people so hard, to look out for them, and somehow that always fails. Damn it.]

you got a name broseidon

[hydrokinetics]

Everybody does.

[Unfortunately he's not going to dish it out too easily, though he's curious. It's the only reason he doesn't change the subject completely.]

Does it matter in something like this?

[brickinthewall]

smart ass

not really

just curious

though is it real smart of you to start asking all these things out loud?

just putting that out there

[Not that she wouldn't herself, but she also mostly doesn't care what happens to herself at the end of the day.]

[hydrokinetics]

It's smart enough when I don't attach my real name to anything.

[It's as good an answer as any to why he's dodging the question.]

What're they gonna do, come track me down for daring to ask questions?

[brickinthewall]

i've tracked down people for less

[hydrokinetics]

Wait like what kind of less? Should I actually be worried about this?

[brickinthewall]

i don't ask broseidon i just get the orders and i collect

[brickinthewall]

that being said

don't look at the nine wrong

[hydrokinetics]

...appreciate the tip. I'll keep that in mind
