Between 15 years for the nation-RP, to 1 years ago for the American-Jedi /w/ [@ Silent Showers]. To be fair I haven't posted all that much this year. Interest in such things is kinda somewhat consistent around here.


[hider=excerpt of last paragraph of first post and first paragraph of second post]
[quote=@Silent Showers]"Adept-Cadets are expected to review and put in bids on the first of their Adept Guard so that they may begin to form their team and start training which will be starting in a week's time. I have forwarded this year's adept guard candidates to your data-pad."

.... "Fuck."

Looks like he wouldn't be living alone for very long. So, he spent the next day and a half picking through [i]hundreds[/i] of profiles while trying to make heads and tails of all the information they were giving to him. It all felt so sudden, almost forced, the way they were forcing him to commit despite having essentially zero knowledge of how anything was supposed to work. Were they putting him on the back-foot on purpose? They didn't even let him leave the suite, instead making regular meal deliveries three times a day seeing as he had everything else he'd need in the room. 

"Ugh, Alexa, just put in my bids on the top five candidates on the list and keep going down until someone accepts."

The AI seemed to pause for once before replying. "Please confirm you wish for me to take this action." 

John frowned. "Confirmed."

"Order and permission have been logged for official reference. Submitting bids."

[i]Weird, wonder what that was about...[/i]

"Please note, whoever accepts the bid will be moving into your suite once they've accepted the request to join your team."

"THEY WHAT?"

Meanwhile in the mess-hall for the mundane, Felix was busy eating her typical stewed-ration when her datapad that that of several others chirped to life. A quick glance indicated one of the new adepts had made a bid for them, [i]all at the same time[/i]. However, as she swiped to accept, the bid vanished. The meaning of this was clear, they only wanted the absolute best guarding them. She calmly finished her meal, acting as though nothing happened while the rest of the mess-hall descended into chaos as everyone was trying to see who made the cut, or to challenge them for their place. She left just as she heard a tray slam into a wall and the noise of breaking furniture. In the distance she could hear station-security rushing to the scene to calm the situation.[/quote]

Well, there is [i]one problem[/i] with recruiting good soldiers to guard you.

Good soldiers, follow orders.
