voa20019 for The Ambitious Leader
[Character Rundown]
You lead an underground organisation that fights to tell the truth in an era of a massive coverup.
The group is renowned, you are a respected leader.
But you have been leading a long time.
You witnessed countless good people die in "terror" attacks to try to liberate the people. Your family is being held hostage to use as leverage against you.
With all that in the back of your mind; you must continue to be the bold leader.
Send more people to their deaths; and put aside your own family for strategy.
[Direction] You are addressing the upper echelon of the group. You must discuss a critical matter with them of things going forward. You begin your speech, and the long night to come.
[Line]
(Booming speech voice, inspirational. Commanding.)
"It is high time we reviewed our current stratagem."
(beat)
"In our recent venture we managed to liberate, from the esteemed bastards in control, a most vital piece of equipment."
"But since then our success has been stagnant. The enemy is catching on to our movements and soon we'll be on the back foot."
(rousing the crowd, building atmosphere, building up.)
"But WE won't let that happen. Will we?"
"We are the ONLY hope left for millions of people. If we fail here we will be allowing thousands to be enslaved - hell we might as well be bolting the collars ourselves!"
"Tonight.... Tonight I ask you... As friends, as soldiers."
(Epic battlecry moment)
"Give us your support ONE MORE TIME!"
(Finishing words)
We will raise their strongholds to the ground & finally... finally earn the freedom we so desire."
[Direction] A close friend in the organisation is discussing with you a potential lead. There's a little bit of romantic tension in the air.
[Line]
(Thinking about all the information presented.)
"Hmm... It's taken me until now to process all that."
"But... I'm actually inclined to agree with you."
(Arguing for the strength of the lead. Diving deep into the information, collecting thoughts.)
"Looking at it objectively... There's no way the kid or Alec himself should be able to create an investment fund that perfect in such a short period of time."
"Even if they had some genius friend who had the whole thing planned out... It would still take a while for that kind of money to be processed."
"For me it would take about a day and a half at minimum. That's constant work. Yet seemingly, they turned it around in... how long? half an hour?"
"This has all the markings of the AI we've been looking for..."
(Worried tone, sad, burdened by leadership.)
"But look... I don't want to commit any more... resources to this. Not more than what's necessary... not now."
