knew_anyway[The feed starts with Nathaniel sitting at his desk, contemplatively glancing toward a few papers- notes- as he considers his words carefully, before looking up, directly into the screen and beginning to speak.]
Shortly before his departure from Adstringendum, Colonel Roy Mustang resigned from his position of Ombudsman. As this was in the height of our last event, I decided to postpone the reelection until after the panic died down a little. Having kept up with the work, I can assure any potential applicants that the workload will not be overwhelming, and I would be pleased to assist in any way I can.
It should be volunteer basis only, and the next Ombudsperson should be elected from the pool of potential volunteers. I will warn everyone who applies- it is a demanding position. However, you will get the satisfaction of helping the community decisions, as well as the opportunity to listen to many different viewpoints. I would highly encourage anyone with an interest in peace and organization to apply. You may respond to this post with any signs of interest.
[A deep breath, and Nathaniel steeples his fingers.]
Furthermore, there are a few more things regarding this 'Police Force' that I would like to address. Firstly is the name itself- I believe that it detracts from our overall goal and gives a bad impression. We are not intent on policing the people at this time, we are only concerned with protecting them. While we do intend to lock up dangerous civilians, it is only out of concern for others; and in a case where the people are altered by an event, only for the duration of the event.
We are not here to control your lives; we are here to help you live them safely. For this reason, I suggest we change the name of our organization to the 'Protection Squad'. Any further suggestions will be welcome.
[Nathaniel pauses one final time, considering his next words very carefully.]
...there have been... concerns brought to me about my level of involvement in this Protection Squad. Some believe that my assuming Jean Louis' secretary position, as well as Cabal's research division and temporarily doing the Ombudsperson's tasks, that I have been attempting to... take everything over. [He swallows hard, but forces himself to keep eye contact with the camera.] I assure you all that this is not the case. My only concerns have been with upholding the integrity of our Protection Squad- keeping it organized, keeping it running smoothly. While I... realize that my work-oriented nature does not attain me much social approval, I would like to reiterate that I will answer any and all questions and concerns.
Additionally, I would like to remind everyone that positions in the protection squad are open and on a volunteer basis- I do the amount of work that I do for lack of assistants or other volunteers. Our research positions are desperately in need of people, as well as our communications, planning, and the patrols themselves.
[Nathaniel takes another deep breath.]
Thank you.

Date: 2011-11-29 09:42 am (UTC)Be aware that Raphael was instrumental with the establishment being as it was. After my return to Heaven I challenged her over her form of leadership and her planned course of action, and we are at civil war in our world.
[Or he is. From when Raphael is from, it's over, with Castiel as the victor but at massive cost.]
Her involvement in this project is a great risk to all involved.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-11-29 07:17 pm (UTC)[He thinks for a moment.]
We have means to subdue her, should it get that far.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-11-30 05:17 am (UTC)However, how much she'd said, and how accurately, is something else entirely. As is whether Nat will tell him, so he asks.]
What means?
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-11-30 06:20 am (UTC)I have three spirits at my disposal, and many, many people who have threatened me, should I attempt a militaristic takeover. Rei believes that if Raphael turns, then she will act alone to subdue her; this is not the case. Not only will I also intervene to the best of my ability, but everyone who has raised a concern with the police force being too strict will have reason to assist us.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-11-30 06:38 am (UTC)Rei does have the means, but only temporarily. I know nothing of how powerful your spirits may be, but it is unlikely they will be of much use to you.
As for the others here that might join you, I know of none that are a true match for Raphael. There is only one being in the city that I'm certain outmatches her.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-01 06:54 am (UTC)Well, we wouldn't be fighting her one on one. And if you're speaking of Satan, then I can't say I'm interested in pursuing that path.
Nobody will follow Raphael if she tries to take over. She should know that.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-01 07:44 am (UTC)[Maybe. Depending on exactly what was going on, if he weren't being a dick at the moment.]
Yes, and that is likely why she hasn't made an attempt yet.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-01 08:14 am (UTC)[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-02 07:24 am (UTC)It is something that warrants concern and planning for.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-02 09:54 pm (UTC)I have a plan, but you wouldn't approve.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-02 09:58 pm (UTC)Why not?
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-02 10:35 pm (UTC)[Quietly, watching his reaction.]
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-02 10:47 pm (UTC)[And he's just staring back evenly at the moment, until Nat confirms it. Then he'll say what he thinks.]
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-04 08:05 am (UTC)We don't have much of a choice.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-04 08:13 am (UTC)[And Castiel himself knows full well the dangers of dealing with spirits and souls, particularly ones of this level of power.]
Does Rei know about this?
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-04 08:18 am (UTC)Miss Rei has expressed an interest in helping the Animus. I believe I have the power to do so.

Date: 2011-12-09 08:20 pm (UTC)Should you do this, Thalatte would be the best choice. She separated herself from the others once before, and she is benevolent.
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-09 08:22 pm (UTC)[He's not stupid.
Okay maybe he is, because he's not going to summon Thalatte. She's not strong enough for what he needs.]
[Video--Private]
Date: 2011-12-11 03:03 am (UTC)This is an incredibly dangerous plan, regardless of your experience and skill.
