ATTENTION!!

Have a problem you can't solve on your own? Feel like you don't have a purpose in life? Don't know what you can do to help your fellow patients get out of this institute? You're in luck!

The newest club in the institute, the Pigmask club, is now accepting members! You don't have to be strong, you don't have to be smart, and you don't have to be fast. As long as you're still alive and have all your limbs intact, you'll definitely be a valued member! With our concentrated effort, we'll be able to accomplish things that are impossible alone! There's strength in numbers!

Anyone who is interested in joining, please make a note in the space below.

Any alchemists or other people with special skills are especially encouraged to join.

Everyone seems to think that I'm some sort of idiot. I don't want cannon fodder. Cannon fodder is useless. I don't want anything that's useless.

I phrased it the way I did because I didn't want to sound desperate. I need help. Without it, I'm as good as dead.

Well, I might suggest then that you join one of the pre-established clubs if you require help. Seeing as I've never heard of you before or seen your handwriting, no doubt you are one of the new patients, correct?

Simply calling for support without knowing what exactly you are up against is, in my opinion, a very, very poor idea. Second only to calling for alchemists or other people with special skills to possibly leave their pre-established groups for yours. I haven't heard of any free-lance alchemists in the area--most belong to the Cooking division, but I believe the History division has contracted one as well.

Next, uniting people under the pretense of their feeling 'no purpose in life' seems to be a rather lackluster call to arms under a leader with little experience of the situation. I think perhaps it would be best if you fell in under one of the other, more experienced leaders and then perhaps stuck out on your own once you have an adequate support base. Others have done so.

One thing I can agree with you on, though, is that you are as good as dead without help.

Your induction is correct, sir! I am in fact new here, so thank you for being so helpful!

You seem rather intelligent. I hope that we can be friends in the future, or, barring that, not enemies, at least.

Your induction is correct, in this case. Thus, I would say that you are very intelligent as well. It's a shame other people aren't as smart as you seem to be.

Here's to friendship, then.
