video.
[When the video clicks on today, Asami is sitting at a desk at what appears to be her work. It's clear that she doesn't usually use a desk, however, as it's clearly not set up to be an office job. But she's grabbing a few things, and she thought it would be best to do this while she has a moment of downtime.]
Hello again, everyone. [She considers saying something about how busy everything was last month, but others have shared that sentiment. Besides, running around with Team Avatar means she's used to it.] I've already ... mentioned something like this before, but I wanted to say that there was a group like the Hornets back in my world. They felt that changes needed to occur, and they went about it in the most violent manner possible. Seeing it again, hearing their rationales, was ... hard for me. [Though the reason why isn't entirely clear, she's not going to go into it. Not here, not publicly like this.]
But what I've learned from extremist groups like that is that we have to look at their pain and their fears and see what we can do. It doesn't mean that what they think is correct. They went about it in the worst way possible. But I do think that we have a responsibility to help make this world better and safer. I'm no hero, and I'm not really interested in that, but I've decided to dedicate myself to bettering this world either through infrastructure or supplying some of the best hovercars available. Admittedly ... I haven't decided yet. [She gives a sheepish smile here.]
Until I do, I'm going to help out with Heropa. The city doesn't look so good right now, and I'm going to be helping out on weekends to try to help set things right. That's something I can start with, anyway. I'd love some help with it, too. Just contact the native citizens who're involved with clean up, and they're willing to put you to work. [Of course, she knows some people will do things independently, which is fine, too. But this is how she's chosen to go about it.]
Other than that, here's to hoping things are better in the future. [It's an empty hope, most likely. The world moves and changes all the time, after all.]
[ooc: I have put up a log for some of the clean up activities!]
