Video One: Hello Citizens!

[lesliemonster]

Hello, Paw – um. Wait a—

[The screen comes up, and the viewer is treated to a lovely close up shot of a single, blue eye. Then a nose, and then there’s the rest of her! Leslie sits at her desk chair, wearing a blue blazer set that she specifically purchased for today. She clears her throat, and smiles.]

Hello. I am Leslie Knope, from Pawnee, Indiana. United States. Planet Earth. [A pause. How cool is this!?] I really admire the work that you all are doing here, and I am so happy for the opportunity to roll up my sleeves and pitch in. Metaphorically. Phorically, I would possibly change my shirt first and then help however I can.

[If anyone needs her to help build cabinets, she has a toolbox – no, Leslie! Stay on topic.] I’ve got a few ideas for upcoming community activities! Now, what is the status of your parks around here?

[Edit: Spam for residents of Level 8: Sitting in front of your doors, you will find a small basket of various candy treats, including several Nutra-Yum Bars. There is a note attached that says:

"A little taste of Pawnee, Indiana. From your new neighbor, Leslie Knope!

P.S. Please don't eat more than one Nutra-Yum bar a day or your teeth may fall out. That is not an expression, that is a legal disclaimer."]

[He'd have trouble with the Recreation part. Narvin doesn't believe in fun.]

They're criminals. Some of them have made progress, true, and are moderately fit for society, but as for the rest...you can't expect them to play nice.

[lesliemonster]

[She is going to turn your pessimism into productive input Narvin, just you watch her.]

Hm. So would you suggest a sort of incentives program? Closing off certain events to inmates who have gotten the pass from their [she remembers how well things went with the very angry blonde man] wardens?

[timesbureaucrat]

[He's in the security business. He already turns his pessimism and paranoia into productive input by imagining every possible way disaster and death could happen.]

Add at least one warden with combat or security experience to be on hand to deal with any trouble that may arise and I would consider that acceptable.

[lesliemonster]

[Excellent! Leslie plans for possible eventualities, but they are of the "in case there is a massive flood and we have to choose between saving all the puppies or all the kittens" variety.

She almost had to make that choice, once. It was terrible.]

There were a few who responded to this message with a background in security -- Dick Grayson, Mark Hoffman and Benton Fraser spring to mind. Would you recommend anyone else?

[timesbureaucrat]

Agent Kay, Miss Parker, Angua Von Uberwald, Brachi Stildyne, Art Mullen, George Crabtree, and Chromie all have formal security and protection experience. [Although Chromie protected timelines, not people. But Narvin's a Time Lord, so...protecting timelines is basically like protecting people in his opinion.] As do I.

A number of others also have military training or informal defense training and can certainly hold their own in a fight. Sarah Connor, Rayne, Dean Winchester, Castiel, Mr. Tucker, Seven of Nine, T'Pol, James Kirk, Shego, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, and Buffy Summers.

[OOC: And if there're any wardens that the mun missed that *should* be on the list, plz assume they are. (Except the T-X. Narvin doesn't trust her as far as he can throw her.) Narvin keeps meticulous notes on this sort of thing.]

[lesliemonster]

[She is writing down these names SO FAST, Narvin. And smiling the entire time.

And also, she is splitting the difference between being impressed that all of these co-workers have military training and sort of wishing she had taken Ron up on his offer of bringing a portable land mine with her.]

Thank you -- this is incredibly helpful.

[ooc: thank you! Leslie is a huge note-keeper, too, so she is the most impressed right now.]

[timesbureaucrat]

[He nods once in acknowledgement of the thanks.]

Miss Knope.

[Welcome to the League of Bureaucratic Bargepersons, Leslie!]

[lesliemonster]

[She is going to make everyone in the League hand-stitched t-shirts, just you WAIT.]

[timesbureaucrat]

[They can't possibly be much worse than Time Lord robes. There's a reason Narvin has switched to suits these days.]
