COST needs to get its shit together

I agree. Skepticism is rampant, after Kebechet's warning. I am interested in what will be done to help members trust again.

[(Anonymous)]

Some recruits have no memory of joining and I have heard of no attempt to solve that problem. Since they have not gone remotely out of their way to win the loyalty of those recruits I doubt being trusted is a concern.

It would be stupid not to wonder why.

[(Anonymous)]

So then you consider us fodder? It seems very much to be the case where Commander Grothia is concerned.

This I don't mind, I am accustomed to being a tool where battles and wars are to be won, but this is not the way to inspire rebellion in people who had no stake to begin with.

[(Anonymous)]

It seems likely. Either trust is not a concern because those in command are foolish or they have no need for it.

A more nefarious possibility is that COST simply lies to us.

[(Anonymous)]

Understood. It's just another way to look at it.

They'll need our trust before the end. No team amounted to anything without morale, unless it was by sheer overwhelming force. Something we don't have.

Grothia and Chiron have answered every question I've asked. They've been forthcoming with me, at least, but again that presumes they're telling the truth.

[(Anonymous)]

I struggle to find hope on better days, but in this situation — for their sakes — I sincerely hope they're not lying.

[(Anonymous)]

they're doing what they can with limited resources and a unit full of civilians and children, some of whom were perfectly ready to throw down their guns and enter hostage negotiations with zero leverage and the Regency holding all the cards.

of course, all that assumes we're being told the truth, but it's not like we're making it easy for command.

Uh open communication from the leaders would def make that easier, anon. You can't get mad at people for being frustrated or having questions. Yeah some people in the group are dumbasses but there's blame on both sides here.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think anyone is mad about that. Have you ever been in command of a military operation?

DA

[(Anonymous)]

Yes.

And COST is incompetent.

[(Anonymous)]

Desperate, yes. Not discerning about who they recruit, yes. That's what's going to bite them in the ass more than anything.

If you don't think anyone is mad about that you haven't talked to many people tho.

[(Anonymous)]

Mad on the command side, I mean. You're within your right to be frustrated. I'm just saying that this is a nuanced issue, and it's not unusual for certain things to be kept need-to-know. We don't have the full picture.

[(Anonymous)]

This is why you can't trust shiTTY ADULTS

[(Anonymous)]

Stop whining about those with more life experience than you.

[(Anonymous)]

hi Ryuji

[(Anonymous)]

Why should we make it easy for command? They should be telling the truth--and none of us know that.

COST isn't logic, it's all emotion.

Emotion will eventually fail in the face of logic and truth.

[(Anonymous)]

Is it worth getting the rest of us killed, too? With stunts like that?

[(Anonymous)]

"unit full of civilians and children"

there's your problem

wheres the lie
