Early Morning [0800 - 0900] — All Troubleshooters Report for Duty

No Special Troubleshooters have been selected for a mission this morning.

Morning & Afternoon [0900 - 1600] — Service Firm Positions
All Troubleshooters not assigned a mission should report to their Service Firm for their daily duties, unless specifically assigned a different shift.

Matt Murdock's office will be assigned to defend the most recent Specials accused of treason. He will not be allowed to contact the traitors directly, but he will be given the task of preparing his cases. He has 48 hours to prepare.

Jack Harkness has been selected to plan the entertainment for tonight's Charity Ball, thanks to the popularity of his performances during the Alpha Talent Show a few days ago. When he asks The Computer for help, several specials are assigned to him. Izzy Lightwood will be his event planning assistant and "Stiles" Stilinski will assist in MCing the night's event. Due to their popularity, all Specials will be approached about being auctioned off for dances in order to help raise money by Jack, Izzy and Stiles. They will also be asked if they're willing to take part in specially planned choreographed dances. Dance lessons will be provided for those that require them during the afternoon hours.

Evening [1600 - 2200] — Citizen Improvement
All Alpha citizens are encouraged to better themselves through Alpha’s wide variety of educational, entertainment and cultural opportunities offered each evening. Attending these sanctioned events are not mandatory, but is highly encouraged by The Computer. Citizens choosing not to take advantage of these opportunities, have a growing number of other options available to them in how to spend their hard earned credits and free time.

Tonight’s event will begin at 1800 at the Alpha Museum of Fine Art and will be hosted by The Humanists Alpha Society for the Arts. Tickets to the event are 1000cr and can be bought up until an hour before the event begins. Attendees have been given special permission to wear Old Reckoning clothing for this event only, as long as it is the same color as their clearance level. Specials may notice that many of the Alpha Citizen's outfits have gotten key parts of Old Reckoning clothing wrong, with buttons instead of sequins, for example, or men wearing ties that are much too long and go to their knees. Alpha's Very Special Forces will be present to ensure the safety of those attending.

An entire wing of the museum has been cleared as a makeshift dance floor. In an attached room there are several tables covered in white tablecloths and set with the crystal and china that usually only graces Violet citizen tables. Along the wall is a massive buffet made with real food and including an elaborate ice sculpture. There is a bar in the corner where Alpha's finest spirits are being disbursed freely. For the first hour, the focus is on the food and mingling. The music playing is calming and instrumental. There are some that steal the dancefloor for a slow spin, but the majority of the attendees seem reluctant to move away from the buffet.

And then at approximately 1900, Jack Harkness will take the stage and begin the evening's real entertainment.

Alpha Curfew Restrictions
All Alpha citizens should be in their quarters within the Wagon Wheel by 2200, unless they’ve been given permission from a GREEN or higher clearance level citizen. Sleeping Aid gas is dispelled each night in the Wagon Wheel at 2200 to assist citizens in getting a productive sleeping period.

Confession Booths
There are hundreds of confession booths available around Alpha Complex if a citizen would like to communicate directly with the computer. Please use these confession booths to report mission statuses, report treason or terrorist acts, unregistered mutants, confess your trespasses against Alpha Complex, request propaganda or speak with Your Friend, The Computer, at any time.

Adam feels relieved that Matt doesn't push it too much. Yes, things work differently here. But at the same time, Adam is Adam and he wouldn't want to press charges no matter where they were. It actually took Ronan almost getting arrested back home for Adam to finally do something about his dad. In the vein of Adam standing up for himself, it's always been about Ronan, whether that's a positive thing or not.

This is no different. And Matt's words sooth some of those worries. He's felt very alone lately, raw and as if everyone can see him when he's so accustomed to being invisible. If Matt means what he says, which time will tell, then Adam isn't so alone. Neither is Ronan.

"Lynch. It's Ronan Lynch." Matt probably has no idea how much Adam is putting himself out there by giving out Ronan's name to anyone. But Ronan took care of Adam by confessing. Adam is taking care of Ronan by doing this. "And... thanks for this."

[preemptiveforgiveness]

Regardless of the reason he's standing up for himself, Matt is glad he's doing it. It's an important thing for a person to do.

Matt nods a little, committing the name to memory. He'll add it to his PDC after the party. "Of course," Matt nods. "If you need anything else, or just someone to talk to about this, let me know. Attorney client privilege exists even in this place." At least as far as Matt is concerned.

[adamparrish]

Adam has no idea if that's actually true or not, whether attorney client privilege is a thing here. Somehow, he feels that it might just be something Matt thinks is true but isn't. The Computer doesn't seem the type to accept secrets of any kind. And as a Computer, it probably wouldn't understand that the privilege isn't really a secret being kept.

But he nods anyway. Because he feels like he's done something here to help Ronan if things go South. And Matt is so nice to him even though he barely knows him and doesn't have to be nice at all.

"Thanks. I'll uhm... let you get back to the party." Because yes, even though Adam isn't here to party, that doesn't mean Matt isn't. He mutters another 'thanks' and goes to find Ronan again.
