" meeting, " micah's voice booms through the seaside town, " [color=#000000]now! " he definitely lacks the virtue of patience and it is a bit of a flaunt, almost to prove himself and the others as strong leadership.
the only catch, infant milo giggling and reaching up for his face and mouth with the yelling.
although the group is small at this point, they deserve to hear their plans and meet them all. hopefully, it would foster a type of blind loyalty that micah has always craved.

First to enter the casino, the very part of the group that was at his helm, Theodore scrunched his nose up upon approaching the already growing group of Badlanders. ❝ Huh- ❞ Teddy tipped his chin up at the sight of someone trying to do a trick shot at the pool table. Not quite how Teddy would do it, but Teddy would give him credit nonetheless. ❝ You got good time right there. ❞ He pointed out as he clasped the person's shoulder in greeting, being met with smiles before Teddy snaked his way to the front.
Here it was - the beginning of the dream that Teddy had always envisioned. Blind loyalty only growing in numbers, and for good reason too. He'd take good care of these people and, in return, they'd be the ones to make his dreams a reality. They'd adore him for it. He'd be their Messiah to guide them into a world of parties, gambling, drugs and crime. He'd show them that their divine law was sin itself. After all, immorality and fun were mutually inclusive.

she had been taking advantage of what she could, including the bar in the casino. So when a meeting was called - by someone she did not recognize - she simply downed the rest of her drink, a hand placed gently on whatever poor soul she had gained the attention of "So sorry, darling. It seems our time together has been cut short." The apology, though poor, was one she had said before. She then got up and wandered over, joining the small crowd that was forming for the meeting. Of course this song and dance wasn’t new, though there were a lot less people and a lot less children than Flintlock.

— and there they were; the holy trinity themselves. julien went ahead and made himself comfortable closer towards the back of the small group, more interested in watching the intrigued people gather to have a good look at the trio for themselves. jules laid an arm on the table, fingers absently drumming as he waited for the meeting to start.

with a little smile to his son, micah gently hands him off to juliette just for ease of conducting the meeting. hands clap together to get everyone’s attention, a straight face and clenched jaw. he doubts he’ll be doing much of the talking in these type of situations, god knows how much teddy loves his own voice, but with this being their first big appearance, he figures he’ll do some talking.
“ welcome to the new badlands, everyone, “ micah begins, “ [color=#000000]we’ll be the new administration; i’m micah, this is my fiancé juliette, and then my brother teddy. we have plans to reclaim badlands’ spot as a strong presence and force greater than surrounding groups. “ he doesn’t mention the twins, his personal affairs are none of anyone else’s business. “ [color=#000000]at the moment, we’re focusin’ on stockpilin’ supplies at whatever cost ’n makin’ the casino a place everyone wants to be, all things go. “
“ [color=#000000]oh, ‘n, me and juliette will be gettin’ married this weekend and our reception will be a celebration for a new era for badlands. teddy’s takin’ charge of the festivities. “ he concludes his points and glances over to teddy as if to invite him to now speak, he really doesn’t like being in front of everyone like this.
// hi guys!!! ty for joining badlands and i can’t wait to collaborate with everyone in reviving and revamping!
currently, the group is working on stockpiling weapons and booze and drugs. as well, juliette and micah will be getting married on saturday, 10/10, and there will be a big celebration to draw people in to the new badlands.

Mike stood silently in the background. New Badlands, ridiculous. The more he thought about all this here, the more he regretted agreeing to sign over the leadership of the Badlands to these three newcomers. But as he tried to justify his decisions during the past year or so, he struggled to find any good reasons behind them.
The dark haired man crossed his arms over his chest, face emotionless as he watched the three make their announcements, what was there to say? To do? Nothing, just stand here. Perhaps in a while, he'd slip away... hopefully unnoticed. Maybe go back to his old cabin if it was still standing. He didn't want to be here, on the beach anymore... why did he have any loyalties at all to the Badlands? He wondered absently.
Mike remained silent, unmoving. Festivals, weddings, ridiculous.
[align=center] MICHAEL FORD Michael Ford is a 45 year old, man, he's stubbornly loyal to whatever cause he chooses, protective of his family and friends, he's a member of the Badlands. Michael has issues controlling his anger in most situations. He is a difficult opponent and well trained, feel free to power play nonviolent interactions though.
