Thunder Corp Recruitment Drive
Who: Everyone who agreed to be approached by Thunder Corp
When: September 21st
What: Thunder Corp is out to recruit
Where: Various Locations
On the date of September 21st, the visitations begin.
For some, they arrive in the form of men in well-pressed business suits. All of them are fit and attractive, almost artificially so, carrying suitcases that contain contracts they wish for those they approach to sign. Their friendliness is also absolute, though they are somehow aggressive at the same time. They've bought themselves into absolutely every location possible, either having traveled great distances with ease or simply found people where they would logically be. In any case, they approach their "targets" out of the blue, greeting them with an outstretched hand and an aggressively polite demeanor.
Still others receive a message in the form of electronic mail. The approach is different simply as a matter of personal resource. How exactly did they find out your e-mail address? Why, it's for the same reason they're able to approach people wherever they happen to be right now: They're Thunder Corp, and they are very resourceful! That's how!
A much more pressing question would be... how did they know you are a Numbered?
[OOC: There's two threads you can reply off of depending on how you decided to be contacted, ones for being approached in person, and ones for being contacted by personal e-mail.]

Yes, we have seen your public response. While we do wish you could have come to us with your concerns, as our Public Relations department is ready and willing to accept communication from you, it is understandable to some degree given your history with past management.
Still, such an aggressive response can be seen poorly by some, in both media and with regards to our business partners. Given the subject of the Numbered can breed volatile and intense debate as it is, we wonder if it is not in your best interest to perhaps approach things with a cooler head in the future.
However, do count on us to not impede your return to the city. After all, that only works towards that which we are both calling for, does it not?
We are quite certain MUCH good will be done, indeed.

Besides, the Numbered remain a point of debate around the world, no matter our response to things. I still have tapes of various Fox News stories about myself I review when I want a laugh. [Someone on Thunder Corp's team probably remembers the gem about being "harbingers of the lesbian apocalypse".] Even if I'd stayed silent, we would have stirred up a firestorm with that silence. There's no good option.
So it is my sincerest hope that we CAN do good, both to raise the world's opinion of the Numbered, and to show the remainder of the Numbered that - rightfully, as you've said - view Thunder Corp. as a threat that things are changing for the better. I just want to make sure you can hold up your end of the bargain. Pledging to make a change doesn't mean anything if the change never happens. And while I want to believe it will come, please understand my position, and the realities of what I am.

I would advise you to forgo from insinuating that we are making threats. That is a very serious allegation, and one that would not afford you much benefit in the court of public opinion.
Our release was meant to inspire Numbered all over the world to look at their behavior in the wake of the invasion, and re-evaluate their decisions in regards to Locke City. We took stock of our company and changed accordingly. Is it not fair that we ask the Numbered to do the same?
Nevertheless, we are happy that you are aware of the need for the Numbered to change their image in the eyes of the public. That is our wish as well, and in regards to changing, you'll find that we already have changed a great deal. We can only hope that your community has done the same.
