Might as well start off with the good news first, right? And despite the departure of Addy and Lucerne, there
was quite a bit of good news.
"First of all, welcome to Iiniwa. At the end of the meeting you'll get a necklace that signifies you're one of us," a dry chuckle left their lips.
"Congratulations on joining the bandits." Every now and then, someone would present a new word that could apply to the Badlands, and every time Cat was surprised.
"In other news, those events I promised did happen, on time if not pushed a little bit. Mike put together a remarkable Thanksgiving feast, and Salem and I orchestrated a talent show. About what you'd expect from us, I'd imagine." Mike, inventive and the good chef he was, had put together a huge meal without a hitch. Meanwhile, Cat and Salem were predictably chaotic.
They paused, looking at one audience member in particular before turning their face towards the ceiling.
I better not regret this. There was plenty of evidence that they wouldn't, but with this man, there was still the distinct possibility.
"One last thing before the bad news. Mike, I'd like you to step up to Officer again."They paused just for a moment to hear his response, and then they were charging on ahead.
"As you've all probably noticed, Addy and Lucerne left. I don't know where they went or why they left, just that they're gone. They'll be missed, but it probably goes without saying that they no longer hold their ranks." Whatever this was that they were feeling, they refused to acknowledge it or define it. Above all else they refused to show it, though the hard lines in their face probably said enough.
And just like that, they snapped out of it.
"Right, Mike, Iiniwa, get up here." They turned to the cardboard box, rooting around it for a blue bandanna and a necklace for the respective men.
OOC Summary:
— Welcome to Iiniwa/Cosmyn!
— We had two events this past week, a
Thanksgiving Dinner hosted by Mike and a
Talent Show hosted by Cat and Salem!
— Mike is promoted to Officer
— Addy and Lucerne stepped down and left. I know I've already said this, but I'm really grateful for everything both Elysian and Truce did, and it's hard to put my appreciation into words. Thanks for everything, wishing you guys and them well.

APPEARANCE dress me up and watch me die
⇥ Catalyst is 6'2" tall; they possess a lean and muscular body, one that has a variety of old scars adorning it. One of the easiest to notice is one that stretches down their right cheek. While not a scar, one very notable marking on their chest is the "BL" brand. They have two piercings, one in their tongue and the other in the cartilage of their left ear. They typically dress in dark colors (favoring jackets with some sort of writing on the back), and their hair is black. They're not all dark, however, as they have pale blue eyes that peer out from beneath medium-sized eyebrows.
PERSONALITY if it feels good, tastes good, it must be mine
⇥ Catalyst is ambitious, with the cunning and ruthlessness to reach their goals by any means necessary. They can be brutal when they feel it is needed, however when it's not they won't bother. They tend to be rather aloof and apathetic to most things and people, with some very rare exceptions. Provided those around them don't cross a few specific lines, they're content to leave them be, though they've been known to take an interest in some people, which seldom has a positive end for whoever their interest is in. They can be manipulative, and will often encourage people to make bad decisions. Those that stick by them will be rewarded, but those that do not will be cast out, as they've been outcast for their entire life and have learned to appreciate loyalty wherever they can find it. Even during the most stressful of situations, they usually keep a firm grip on their temper and keep their calm, though when they do snap and lose their temper, it is uncontrollable. They're remarkably observant, often able to deign much from subtle clues in what people say, how they say it and how they act.
