I think it's about time we kicked that good for nothin' outta office. You know, that stand in mayor that's apparently been office since Oturo turned heel n' left? They don't seem to be doing anything. No public appearances; speeches, monuments, ribbon cuttings... Nothing. After that big thing with 'Sin', you'd think they'd of done something. Even now with those buildings disappearing.

I don't get what the deal with this guy. How is he still in office? Aside from doing absolutely nothing, shouldn't they have picked a new mayor by now?

I outta go n' give those big officials a piece of my mind.

While I do agree that this mayor should have given some sort of public explanation, I do not think that such a move is wise unless you have a plan as to what is to happen to this city after the mayor has been removed.

Acting without a plan only invites chaos.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

But I do have a plan: I take that mooks place n' put that power of his ta good use.

[forherpeople.livejournal.com]

How do you plan on removing the current mayor--stand-in as he may be--from office? Have you experience in politics? What of advisers?

The problems associated with ruling even one city are many.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I can't give that away, then he'll be expecting it. But it's a good plan. After all, I made it up.

As far as politics and advisers go, I got my fair share. I constantly got people beggin' ta be my adviser, you know.

[forherpeople.livejournal.com]

I see.

I wish you well in your endeavors and hope that you truly know what you are doing.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I take it you're familiar with this kinda stuff?

[forherpeople.livejournal.com]

In my own world, yes.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Any other advice?

[overlords_wrath]

I don't think I've heard anything about a new mayor...

Tch. Haven't you given up on that already? Like you're ever going to be mayor.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Weird, ain't it? Almost suspicious...

And no, I haven't! -except for that one time. But that doesn't count. If this mook keeps at it, I'm guaranteed the position.

[overlords_wrath]

Hm, maybe.

Uh huh.

Okay, say you DO get it. Then what?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Then I put that power n' luxury to use the way that it was intended.

[overlords_wrath]

Right. What about all the work? You know these jobs involve work right?

Meetings, public addesses, stacks and stacks of paper work...

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Of course I do, but I got people workin' under me too, don't I? I'll give them all the paper work.

[overlords_wrath]

Heh, nice try. If it was that easy to get rid of it, do you think I would still get stuck doing it?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Well, that depends on what you assign your servants, doesn't it? If you just give 'em paper work, you won't have to worry about it.

[overlords_wrath]

Yeah, it doesn't work like that, moron. There's stuff you HAVE to look at and sign. It's part of being Overlord and I'm pretty sure it would be the same for a mayor.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I could sign n' look at stuff. That's easy.

[overlords_wrath]

Hmph.

You won't last a week.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

You're right, I'll last longer.

[overlords_wrath]

That's not what I meant.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Oh ye of little faith, what'll it take to...

Hu. I'll get back to you on that.

[overlords_wrath]

.. Eh?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I think there's something watching me.
