Publicity Plotting?

[professorwolf]

So I know a number of people have posted to Lyall's request for people to go public with him, and he's apparently got a potential backer for some airtime on television. He'll want to do this before school starts (next week? week after? do we have an official start time for school in Locke?), so ASAP, like tomorrow or Monday. (Can't be tonight, cuz he's doing dungeon-delving with Anthony tonight, heh.)

I wanted to post something up here rather than on plurk cuz I know I don't have everybody who replied on my plurk :B Is there a day that works well for everyone IC, and do we have a preference as to how and what network and what kinds of things everyone is willing to say? I know Lyall is going to basically come clean, though he may keep his "I can change into a wolf at will" to himself, in order to keep that particular disguise if he needs it.

Also, do we want to rp this out, or handwave/summarize the actual event, or some combination of the two, like setting up a Q&A sort of thing without rping a full-on interview?

Julien's in on this of course! Pretty much any day or time is good for him - he models now, so he's got some irregular easily-handwaved hours. He's got little to hide and would like to focus on looking harmless, up-playing how the numbered don't have any better idea of what's going on than than anyone else and are just trying to get by. These days he's kinda of covered as a human interest sort of case, when he's given much attention.

Any take is fine with me!

Yo \o

So this is something I've been planning to work on with Saretha, but real life stuff happened and I hadn't gotten back to it yet... thus, Lyall's post was kind of perfect timing following the media backswing on them.

Saretha has funds she can tap from both herself and her parents so long as she can convince them having Numbered on their side is a valuable resource. She thinks it's pretty important to have a "public face" for them so that way they're not just this mysterious force acting on their own. She thinks that showing Numbered could be normal, "respectable" sorts of people (hahaha, implying she's respectable, that's hilarious) could bend to their advantage eventually. She's been keeping herself hidden up until now, but knows that the act of doing that only for it to be exposed when it's not of her own choosing could only backfire if she tries to keep doing that.

There are a number of potentials beyond that - especially if anyone (or anyones) want to start trying to pull public relations on a more consistent basis.

I am up for this anytime! Though I would admittedly prefer we do it this week, because next week, work is going to be amazingly insane for me and I'm not sure how speedy I'll be with the tagging. As I've said, Hajime's going to keep right on keeping on playing the role of the Lord of the Bugmen and wonder what his life has come to.
