another meeting, and the brunette stood at the front of the room, one hand in her pocket and the other supporting her daughter, who'd been particularly demanding for attention of late. people milled about as usual, making small talk and anticipating dinner, and once most had amassed, she cleared her throat.

[color=#4A272E]❝alright everyone, quiet down, time for a-❞ she began, only to be interrupted by her daughter.

eyes wide and pink cheeks shifted into a grin, hope parted her lips to intercut with a cry of [color=#4A272E]❝meeting!❞, obviously excited to be able to play her mother's part.

hayley's brows rose, glancing down at her, before sighing. [color=#4A272E]❝yes, hope-❞

[color=#4A272E]❝hope no.❞ was hope's excited response, not quite knowing what the words meant but delighted to have all eyes on her as she proclaimed them.

the skipper did her best to conceal her reaction to her daughter's words, obviously bemused but trying not to encourage the behavior, and instead turned to hold the infant out to anton, who quickly took her. of course, hope had one last declaration of [color=#4A272E]❝hope no!❞ with a toothy grin as the doctor carted her off to the back.

hayley sighed once more, glancing over the crowd. [color=#4A272E]❝yeah, meeting.❞ was her only response to the chaos, shrugging as she returned her hands to her pockets.

[EDMUND.]

    Time for another meeting. It was beginning to feel like weeks were merging with one another and the very thought alone was unsettling to say the least. Ed was beginning to lose control of time - something which was never meant to be controlled in the first place, yet Ed tried to do so so willingly. He kept to the back of the room, eyes flitting about at the others who all congregated. It was only a matter of time before shit hit the fan - he predicted - and the conjecture was enough to make him twitch, stood deep in thought.

with the hope-situation satiated, hayley found herself standing, arms crossed and lips pressed firmly together. [color=#4A272E]❝alright, lets get this over with.❞ luckily, there wasn't a whole lot to be said.

[color=#4A272E]❝for starters, i haven't seen harrison around at all, so he's going to have to be demoted.❞ she declared, hands slipping down to slide into her pockets, shoulders setting back a bit. [color=#4A272E]❝and on a lighter note, i'd like to welcome rory, kai, and monroe. try not to be assholes to them or anything.❞ she said sort of awkwardly, motioning vaguely towards any of the newcomers present, before clearing her throat. [color=#4A272E]❝otherwise, we're doing some things with the other groups. most significantly, the badlands is having a little thing, so go if you can do scary. if anyone ought to be able to scare the shit out of you all, it'd be the badlands.❞

she found herself pacing, slowly and surely, one foot in front of the other as she spoke. [color=#4A272E]❝we're also going to be hosting our very own event, a trick-or-treating thing down in the village. anyone can pass out stuff, kids under sixteen are free to do the trick-or-treating, and we're going to be inviting other groups. if you want to participate, make sure you get a costume. if anyone wants to help me bring invitations to other groups, just let me know.❞ sighing, she made a vague motion towards the cafeteria. [color=#4A272E]❝alright, go eat.❞
