soggypastry[Evening, people of the Corps. Have a Lightning on your screens tonight, with the howling roar of the blizzard right behind her. She doesn't look too good, hair pinned away from a too-flushed face, but her voice is even and strong.]
As soon as this blizzard's blown over and the holidays have passed, I need everybody in Goldenrod as soon as possible. You've heard by now that the Radio Tower is still being held by Team Rocket, and we're planning to take it back. [a pause as she swallows hard and inhales, then:] But in order for this to work, we need everybody here so we can plan squads to cover our weaknesses instead of leaving holes in our defense. We're only going to get one shot at this before they start preparing for an attack instead of leaving the doors open, so we have to make this count.
[Her eyes narrow slightly now, before she sighs.]
I'm not saying this is going to be easy. Chances are people are going to get hurt, both on our side and theirs, but you were all warned about that when you signed up for the Corps. If you think you won't be able to do this, for whatever reason, say something now and we'll move on without you. We don't have room for sympathy this time.
[End feed. Blunt and to the point, as always.]
[ooc: as always, a list of the Corps Members can be found here. If your character is a member, assume that they received a message directing them here, just in case it was ICly missed.]

Date: 2012-12-20 03:37 am (UTC)... eh? Is this some kind of militia drafting notice?

Date: 2012-12-20 04:21 am (UTC)You tell me. You're the one who signed up with us in the first place, Hayate. Did you think we wouldn't be needing you at some point?

Date: 2012-12-20 04:40 am (UTC)I don't really know if it's a good idea for me to be taking part in some big attack on any kind of Rocket thing considering my track record though...

Date: 2012-12-20 04:52 am (UTC)Rika left some time ago. Why didn't you say something about wanting out before now? [Because that's where she's assuming he's going with this...]

Date: 2012-12-20 05:01 am (UTC)I just think I'm kind of a liability if you want to be using the element of surprise at all? I, um... Kind of snuck into their old base and helped free a bunch of rocket abandoners... And was the only person who tried to interfere on their whole Suicine capturing operation...
I'd probably be a dead giveaway if I lurked around there at all, you know?

Date: 2012-12-20 06:28 am (UTC)You could stay in the back of the group, if you're so worried about that. [snort.] Besides, I don't think barging in the front door is going be using the element of surprise. Do you?

Date: 2012-12-22 08:04 am (UTC)Any real group effort would kind of lose that though, wouldn't it? Aren't exactly planning a sneaking mission at this point, huh? That's how I got into their other base... It was just me and two friends... One of whom wasn't even a friend at the time...
