AS THE WAR THAWS...
[When the imPorts open their comms, they will come face to face with an uncharacteristic image, ensuring that even imPorts who attempt to ignore broadcasts at large will see it. This is, after all, relevant to each and every imPort.
The image is nothing more than a black screen with white text superimposed on it: STATE OF NATIONAL EMERGENCY.
After a moment, the image will be quickly replaced by one of L. Chases, seated at her desk, hands folded in front of her. Her expression may be grim, but it is firm, and there is nothing but ferocity behind her stare.]
Attention all imPorts, [she starts off, voice crisp and clear.]
We are now in a state of national emergency. As of January 20th, the USSR has officially declared war on the United States, effectively endangering not only the people of America, but the world as a whole. In this time of need there is a strong chance we may have to call upon you, imPorts, to do your duty in protecting your own.
As a part of this declaration of war, the USSR has abducted approximately fifty imPorts, a number which may yet continue to grow. We do not yet know how this was accomplished, but you have our word that our intelligence is active and ready to uncover what form of technology could abduct you from afar.
We are currently in talks with foreign aid and the UN. Retaliation is a risky prospect, but I assure you, we will retaliate. That time draws near, and when it does, we will be asking for your assistance.
Until then, stay aware, alert, and cautious, imPorts. We cannot afford to lose any more of you, and more importantly, your fellows cannot afford it.
[And with that, her broadcast ends. There will be no replies.]

[He normally wouldn't reply to this. But lately, being something used and abused by the government's been even more a sore spot than ever. He's replying even before he realizes.]

[He should sound more angry. But he's just so emotionally exhausted it comes out closer to bitter exasperation.]

[He's remembering going to rescue Kitty, near the beginning of his stay here. That had nothing to do with the government, but this situation feels the same. Why does January suck so much?]

[Ugh.]
Well, I mean, we can't not go get them back. That's out of the question. But any further than that, I'm not interested.
no subject
That's still doing what they want...
no subject
I know. But I'd rather be somebody's dog than just leave them there. Sometimes there's no other path to take.
no subject
Depends on who's missing.
[TETSUO NO.]

To a degree, yeah. I've got an incentive. I'm not telling you to participate; that's your choice. But you'd be an asset.
no subject
What is it? Your incentive.

Three people.

Tetsuo just waits, sees if he elaborates.]

[ What that something is, he's not sure, but it's a start. ]

voice;
Yeah, I get it. We've got a pretty crap selection. But would you rather not get to choose at all?
voice;
[But he sighs. Put it that way, and he's not turning down more control over his life. Dammit.]
It's closer to the Porter here, I guess.
voice;
I mean, you know, us imports are still figuring out that second part. But for now we gotta work with what we have.
voice;
All your options, huh.
