[bro this is all so disorganized. Shepard can hardly stand it -- but she's heard of the meetings that they had had in the past, and she's going to take it upon herself to do one of her own. they had to get all of their facts together somehow, at least.

it's the Leader Things in her.]

Everyone meet me near the pool. Between the apparent disappearances last month and what's been going on at the pool, we need to get our facts straight. Meet me here after school's over for the day.

[aaand she's there at her designated time, hoping that they'd at least try to listen to her and gather as she intended...

she's not going to lock anyone in or anything, but if you try to pass her by, she's going to give you A Look like you'd better mind her message. not that she's even close to punching someone out, but. there's probably something a little bit intimidating about the commander who's looking at you expectantly if you try to ignore her meeting.]

[okay, mayyybe she might herd someone near the group if they're acting like they don't necessarily want to be there but have passed by anyway. she's not being super aggressive, but it's probably more like a cattle dog following sheep in a group. like you just Know you don't really want to try to get away from her.]

The sooner we can all have the same information, the sooner we can go back to whatever we need to be doing.

[which is nothing, really.]

So let's just get it over with, and start telling us what you know.

[Don't mind Tali, she's just lurking behind Shepard and letting the Commander do all the talking. That's usually how this worked. Shepard pressed for information, convinced them to be honest, and if she felt like they were hiding something important, she'd get a bit...er, tough on them. It was one of her favorite things to watch, Shepard's commanding presence.

When there was a break in the people Shepard was pressing for information, Tali stepped closer, tilting her head.]

This isn't going badly. Considering most everyone here are children...

[safeguarder]

[Shepard just shrugs a little, and then shakes her head.]

It's not. I just know that there were a few that looked like they wanted to try to skirt it -- it's hard when they all are children.

[she could just punch adults if they were being avoidant. she definitely wouldn't do that to a child.]

[unimmune]

[Tali would give anything to watch Shepard punch an idiot refusing to cooperate, again.]

And you convinced them anyway, without even having to use your fists. [Or a gun, for that matter.]

Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this quickly, with everyone working together.
