[And once again, it is noon on meeting day in Patrol headquarters. There's a big open meeting room space, tables in the middle, a projector on the ceiling, computers in the walls. It is shiny, high-tech, clean, and full of a lot more people than last time. Yuan is already here before anyone else arrives, getting papers laid out and shuffled around. He seems tense, but satisfied. Things are finally coming together.]

((ooc: Please wait to tag until sections are up, thanks! Actually, go ahead and tag away in each section as it goes up. Threadjack lots! We're all in the same room, so jump in wherever you want.))

[looks up with a start]

Me? Oh--no, no. I was here last time. Were you ...?

[because you are unfamiliar]

[benevolentstar.livejournal.com]

No. This is definitely my first time.

[nurse-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh, right, I see. So ... what made you want to sign up?

[benevolentstar.livejournal.com]

I used to do this in my world; protect people. I can't imagine stopping.

[he nods slowly] Right, yeah ... um. [slight frown before leaning in to say] Sorry if this sounds rude, but you seem a bit--nervous.

[benevolentstar.livejournal.com]

I guess I just feel a little out of place here.

[nurse-boy.livejournal.com]

Really? [he frowns] How so?

[he's always imagined people who make a career out of protecting others as being supremely confident, always, like the superheroes from the comics he read as a kid]

[benevolentstar.livejournal.com]

Well some people here have amazing abilities. I'm ordinary by comparison.

[Normally she is. Being in a totally new world was still throwing her off.]
