You read what SW said right? It's a bad idea that only invites more discord when we're already dealing with shit on way too many ends. It's not worth breaking our relationship over right now.
So when you put your hand on the stove do you pull it away or just leave it on there cause man it just can't get any worse than it already is. Yeah ok you MIGHT be able to start a rebrand but the second they figure out who it is you sure as shit better have her away from the protectorate. This isn't Shadowrun sure but that doesn't mean we need to go about this in the most heavy handed way possible. Going TEEHEE XD POACHED YOUR UNDERAGED MEMBER HAHA doesn't change the fact that our allies who can make our lives VERY UNPLEASANT would be VERY UNHAPPY with us. Find a better way than being obtuse about this, saying we need an armed intervention or this is a completely false dichotomy that has no grasp on the middle roads of this situation that don't burn us. She LIVES on base with them, it's not like they won't suddenly go "huh I wonder where Missy's gone shes been missing for a few days".
edit: seriously if you want to try to bring Dragon as a non-obvious pick just remember she IS a very busy lady and our local problems may not be the best use of her time. Like don't get me wrong I LIKE Vista and I LIKE Dragon but that doesn't mean that bringing them to this is smart. Hell I'd totally swap my vote back to Tim if that bandwagon gets rolling there is certainly a good message of solidarity in bringing him in and I wouldn't speak against trying to bring Dragon in either but I wouldn't actively support it either.

All great points as to why we shouldn't bring Vista along. I voted that following the trend, but I've gone and changed it to Dragon.

I'm fine with this. It doesn't make sense to hide that Tim is our teammate and this way we can easily solidify his affiliation with us rather than the Privateers.

I very very VERY rarely say if an idea is good or bad. At least I try to keep my mouth shut.
Theoretically and officially, you're absolutely right. Vista has the right to withdraw from the Wards if she wishes. She would have to sign NDAs about what she knows about the members of the Protectorate, but she cannot be forced to put her life in danger. The Youth Guard would come down on the Philly Protectorate like the hammer of God if they tried. This is the kind of situation the YG was created to prevent.
That being said...
The Protectorate does not like their capes leaving the organization. Think back to the canon introduction of the Adepts. They were mentioned as being a low-impact gang, and yet Weaver was part of a strike force organized to take down an Adept cell after Epoch convinced Standstill to leave the Protectorate to rebrand as Thirteenth Hour. Their reaction would probably be more subdued if Vista left to become an indie hero but, well, spoiler alert: they want Taylor and Sam and Tim to give up the indie life and sign up, not take their established heroes away.

We wouldn't beable to take her away if she wasnt already unhappy there. Thats a thing i feel like alot of people are forgetting.
Everyone's going 'rar rar protectorate'.
But we know Vista is unhappy where she is. Is Missy's smile a secondary concern to not ruffling the feathers of the Protectorate? Are you content to leave her there to stew in her resentment when we have the opportunity to offer her a better deal? I say we should be more concerned with our friend, and the Protectorate can go get stuffed. Since when have we cared about that pack of PR obsessed piranhas? Half the shit thats wrong with Worm is their fault!
We can do the right thing, or the easy thing. Appeasing the protectorate is certainly easy... but its not right.

Easy for you to say this from our collective positions on the other side of the 4th Wall.
1: Ya it is a secondary concern when solving that issue in the way you want is fucking stupid and impulsive when Missy is not going to suddenly NOT be our friend because we didn't include her right this second
2: Just cause we don't want to do it right now doesn't mean we can't do it later
3: I don't know if you've noticed but this is hardly canon worm or the canon protectorate atm and while they certainly aren't perfect neither are they the bad guys.
4: Working with the protectorate under their rules causes us a heck of a lot less stress then making them mad as fuck at us and we have enough problems at once to tackle.
So ya leaving it as it is for now is for the best.
I very very VERY rarely say if an idea is good or bad. At least I try to keep my mouth shut.
That was more me saying that it was a bad idea than saying that you were saying it. You just really proved that what I was saying was actually correct.
And you're deciding that Vista is unhappy and needs to be saved from the Protectorate. Hell, if anything that would piss Vista off more!
Also, you still don't seem to understand something. Right now Philadelphia is in a very precarious position; one that made the whole meeting between the Villain groups and the Protectorate in order to protect it necessary. We don't need to introduce more conflict by trying to stake a claim on Vista now of all times.
That is stupid. That is non-productive and will ultimately blow up in our faces because it will introduce a point of contention that we don't need right now, especially when we will be assisting them in repelling the encroaching gangs out of the city.
So if you wanna do something like this, do it when shit isn't going to hell. We can't afford to be selfish right now, and I certainly refuse to be the person to fuck up negotiations just because you want to make a statement.

Indeed. We are all on this side of the 4th wall... thats kinda the point?
None of this really counters anything ive said, 1 and 2 basically amount to the same thing, which is 'not doing this now doesnt hurt us' which was never my point, its not that not doing it will hurt us... its that doing it will benefit us. And if we are going to do it at all, why not now? What benefit is there to doing it later? Will the Protectorate be less outraged if we do it a month from now? No 3 is misleading, no this isnt canon... but the PRT was still conceived under the same terms, Rogues are still nearly non existent, the PRT is still designed to fail. The Endbringers are still around so parahuman feudalism is inevitable. If anything, this version of the PRT may be worse, since as far as we know they didn't intentionally lock villains in SImurgh Containment Zones after they volunteered to help fight just because they could get away with it. Which is something this PRT does, admitted straight from Alexandria's mouth. 4 is overblown. They cant do anything official, the best they can do is shun us which.... hurts us not at all. We are not reliant on them for anything, we have Dragon's support, Tim's tech, our own and Sam's powers and the TSAB folks on the horizon. If the PRT suddenly decided to ignore our existence that would probably cause us less trouble in the long run, and if they decided to mess with us somehow, we can troll them right back and do a better job of it. There is also the fact they would be poisoning their own hand... anything overt they did to us would also splash over onto Vista. Its not like they are actually stupid enough to think that being massive assholes to Taylor is going to win Missy back.
Yeah, see. You say that, but i see it rather differently. We do have to work together. The Protectorate and the Villains and the Indies all need to work together to drive out the out-of-town-villains. The Villains will not give a fuck where vista is standing as long as shes onside against their rivals, if anything her sitting with us, instead of the Protectorate might give them a giggle. Its certainly not going to hurt us in their eyes. For the heros, they have the most to gain and lose from this alliance... every time a building gets turned to glass or a store burns down, it makes them look bad. Getting the new villains gone to greener pastures will be a big PR win for them no matter how much of a role the local indies and villains have in actually securing that victory. Taylor has proven herself extremely powerful and versatile, she was key in stopping the containment breach and in the battle against the beasties and the.... Cujos gang, whatever it was called. They are going to want her on side for this. They are not going to make a big deal right now because they have much bigger problems than a wayward ward. And by the time their plate is cleared enough to focus on us? The matter will have cooled.
Oh sure we are not going to get off free, that would be stupid to think. But when better to stake a claim on Vista? Now, when they need us and wont want to rock the boat (especially in front of the villains)? Or later on when things have settled and they are free to turn the full weight of their disapproval on us?
We have an oopportunity in this confluence of events to get Vista more into our camp, and doing so while minimizing the problems it will cause. Doing it later will almost certainly go worse for us than doing it now and i dont want to see this chance pass us by because we may not get another neat little situation like this.
*edit; Also, im not deciding shes unhappy. We know shes unhappy. I'm trying to help her out of the situation thats making her unhappy. Very key details those.

Maybe you could actually leave the choice to Vista, for one? Or, I dunno, wait for another social event with her to actually talk to her about it??
Right now what you're trying to do is exactly what she hates; you are deciding what she should do and treating her like a child that needs to be saved for her own good.
How about you try to actually treat Vista with the respect you say she deserves and let her decide what she wants to do. She's very capable of doing so, just as much as she's capable of telling us to go fuck ourselves for putting her on the spot and forcing her to choose between the Protectorate and us.

Well, I mean, what are they gonna do about it, if we recruit Vista? Really? Brand us a villain and risk taking the brunt of that good old Blaster yes? They wouldn't dare. They'd take it, like the little bitch organization they are.

This sort of thing has come up in the quest before and been shot down. Using an action to find out whether the NPC wants us to use an action is a waste of time, SW will tell us or not and presumably we would actually ask Vista before inviting and not just kidnap her via teleport into a meeting chair ffs xD
Well for one, we already got them a shiny new Purity they wouldn't have had otherwise. Fair Tradesies?
Really though, Calamity Witch isn't all that independant. The major reason Taylor didn't join ICly seemed 1. Privateers were a budding new option she was considering 2. She didn't want the restrictions of the Wards. Numbah 1 never really came up (as we didn't vote to seek them out, and they never came at us to offer) , and is certainly gone as an influence now. and Numbah 2 , even if they learn about Taylor, by now she's certainly got some leverage to negotiate on.
So, assuming they offered full member status and not Ward, well.... have they bothered giving Taylor any reason to want to sign up with all the restrictions and forced publicity? What can the protectorate offer an indy hero anyways (battle allies don't seem an issue, maybe a paycheck?). Maybe if they want Calamity and Vista to follow the hierarchy instead of staying associated-freelancer team, they should make a concrete offer after this meeting spells out that actual persuasion is needed? (A warning they can't take Vista for granted).
At the very least, I'm hoping that even if we don't bring Vista along, people might be okay with having Perfect Storm pipe her a live feed after we contact her about it, maybe even discuss openly with her whether to bring her along and the risks of it, and generally keep her in the loop? I don't think Taylor /approved/ of how isolated she was the last time with MS-13, did she?

Because if you start poaching heroes from the PRT/Protectorate (rather than the hero independently deciding to leave and then later joining a different group), that poisons the well on pretty much any interaction you have with the larger organization.
Also, pretty sure it would be illegal for the PRT to try and put a minor in the Protectorate rather than the Wards. And that's ignoring the Youth Guard getting up in arms about child labor etc.

I really don't understand why people are voting for bringing Dragon to villains discussion.
Dragon is international-level superhero with tonnes of responsibilities elsewhere, who right now need to adjust to her new body and share her deepest secrets with her friends and colleagues.
And you want for her to spend her time to sit on a meeting of some local-level villains?
Why?
Do you want to just brag? "Look at my new teammate, she's so freaking adorable"?
Are you hoping she'll give us some advice, which experienced capes who knows local scene the best like Chevalier and Jotunn will be unable to give?
Are you expecting her to provide some help, which Taylor, Perfect Storm and Tim will be unable to provide?
Are you expecting her to join the fight with newcoming villains?
It won't be a time well spent in my opinion.
Vista... I do understand why people wants to bring her, even if I don't agree with them.
But let's imagine people who want independent Vista won. Vista left the Wards and the PRT let her go.
What next?
Right now Vista lives either with Miss Militia or at the Wards base. In both cases I expect her to move out as a symbol of her new-found independence.
But move-out where? To us and Lacey?
Do we even have money to provide for her?
Are we ready to deal with the Child Services that most probably will want to check ward of the state Missy Biron's living conditions?
And let's not forget her identity was blown, so by closely associating with her we risk to blow our identity while there is people in the city who already demonstrated their willingness to blow up buildings to get us.
And let's not forget our track record with current and potential teammates is quite awful so far. We (mutually) ignored the Privateers for half-dozen arcs. We ignored the Adepts until Silently gave us an ultimatum, then we met them and promptly continued to ignore them. We ignored Vista herself until she gave us an ultimatum, for crying out loud!
The Privateers and the Adepts are adults who have homes and experience of being independent and providing for themselves. Vista has neither. As de Saint-Exupéry said, "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." I'm not sure Taylor is responsible enough to tame wild Vista. Now, Galean-made brainwashing WMD is totally different thing, I assure you.

Hopefully I collected the correct ones based on the discussion at the end of page 588, since my goal for social was to social Lacey and offer her the IE template and start working on converting the Adepts and I just picked the closest options in the vote tally. Much as I want to do "Long Live the King", I believe these other two have priority.

Ugh. This feels like it'll blow up on our faces. Ignoring the Adepts again and again folks? That just seems like it'll end poorly.
Can we please not leave things until the last minute? Or will you guys have to be explicitly warned by GM again about the Adepts (well, remnants this time)?

Now, my notes on possible companions:
1) Shipwright - he is a Tinker at a villain meeting. This has bad idea written all over it. No.
2) Vista - she is coming with an independent instead of with her direct superiors. Silently Watches already said it's going to have consequences. No.
3) Samantha - boring, yet practical.
4) Unison Dragon - awesome, yet practical.
The reason why I am choosing Samantha is - a nod to the fact it is a villain meeting. And she is supposed to be our protector. I am accepting her role and giving her the opportunity to act in that role.

The reason why I am choosing Samantha is - a nod to the fact it is a villain meeting. And she is supposed to be our protector. I am accepting her role and giving her the opportunity to act in that role.
