[network] @ASolomons; audio, evening of 205 [open]
A couple of nights ago, Charles brought up a very good point. I'm sure you've all seen it by now. And I think that even if no one but the explorers is taking the food and supplies left, he's shed some light on an important issue to consider for the future.
[There's a creak of a chair as he adjusts, still struggling to get comfortable with his broken ribs.]
So what I'm suggesting here, right, is a system of accountability. Those of us who are leaving supplies will leave our contact information - names and usernames, with a request to give us a ring when supplies are taken. And that, yeah, that'll serve two purposes. One, it'll let us know when a supply point is running low and needs to be restocked. And two, if many things are disappearing without any messages to us, it'll let us know that something might be going on that needs to be looked into.
I, for one, would very much like to know if the supplies meant for the explorers are being misappropriated.
[He gives a significant pause here, wanting that to sink in. It's no coincidence that this is coming right on the heels of House's post about him. If anyone who isn't exploring new areas is taking food and supplies that are being left, he wants them to know that he specifically is paying attention.]
Now - it's true that things aren't very centralized here. Yeah, there hasn't been much communication. And therefore, I think that most of us are gonna be understanding towards those that might have taken things out of ignorance - not knowing that they were meant only for people traveling into unexplored areas, where useful tools might be especially needed and town-provided food might be hard to get to. But I would hope that now that this has been made clear by both Charles and myself, you'll all keep this in mind for the future - and, of course, return any supplies you might have taken that haven't already been used up.
Thank you.
[He cuts the feed.]

[That about sums up his thoughts. Expounding more would take energy he just doesn't have, so he resigns to a frustrated roll of his eyes, weakly settling back against the wall he'd situated himself against for the evening.]
If you want to show him how much you want to change, even if it's just to spite him, then you need to keep yourself alive long enough to do that. Be smarter than that. Otherwise, it's not going to make the impact you think it will.
[action] (cw: self-harm)
I don't want to make an impact. I want to help. Even if it is small, it's still something. A day. A couple days where there is a little less pain is all I want.
[Tony keeps to his side, talking to Lutha across the distance quietly.]
For a short time, I had something important and I kept him from forcing his way into taking it. It doesn't make me any better and it doesn't change anything here except for a little while someone hurt less. No one gets saved.
