Government Loyal Meta Comm (Open)

[privatepurchases]

[Gabriel makes weekly addresses that most people probably ignore, but this ratification day, the meta ambassador has decided to grace his people with his presence. As Ambassador to metas, as a shepherd with a very rich flock - his word is valued.]

Greetings my fellow imPORTs and Happy Ratification Day!

I know things are tough right now and that the porter's difficulties have thrown our world into chaos. It opens a lot of potential avenues and I want to assure everyone that the authorities are working on the cause. Let's focus on putting trust in the government that has been working so hard to keep us safe so that we can use our gifts to protect the human beings of this realm in order to turn it to the paradise it could be.

As such! I would like to announce my wife and I's annual ratification party! The theme his year is The American Dream - so come in your best ratification day costumes! We'll be hosting a charity auction with 50% of the proceeds going to imPORT supporting organizations. The other half will be going to support our meta management programs.

Now, since community is more important then ever - we'll be kicking off the festivities with a barbecue! We'll be opening up our lower lawn to everyone and hosting a raffle which includes an invitation to our evening soiree. I can promise you that my wife has been hard at work planning a menu worth the $150 dollar plate prices and I'm very pleased to announce a number of local businesses donating things for the raffle, and for the auction after!

So! This Friday, join my wife and I to celebrate Ratification, our American dream, and our community as we unite to welcome newcomers.

Questions and invitations will be distributed below!


[ooc: BBQ is open to anyone and everyone, if you're loyal to the government, feel free to presume that Gabriel invited you to his party. Resistance infiltrators welcome!]

Hello, sir. Do you know when we'll be notified whether or not we're on the security roster?

Always delighted to see people hoping to protect those of us working for metas.

I'll have Luther Hargreeves reach out. He's my chief bodyguard for the evening.

...Please dress nicely. Something feminine

Of course, sir. I will do my best to blend in. If you wish I could place the clothing for your inspection, or the inspection of someone whose taste you trust. I understand if my abilities on this front are questioned heavily after the last time.

I'm going to pass you to my aide and remind you that if you embarrass my wife and my party things will not go well for you. Do you understand?

It's not that hard.

I assure you that I have learned a great deal since then, sir. I have received a great deal of advice and have taken it to heart. You can rest assured that such an incident will not be repeated, least of all at such an important function.
