[It's what she said she'd do. Now that Markus is gone, Clarke is all too aware of how she relied on him. He was a crutch. Not in a bad way, not in a way where she'll be hard on herself, but he helped her take a lot of the pressure off herself. She could be her worst, her most erratic, her most difficult, and she would never have to make decisions for the group.]
I'm ready now. And I think we should bring the rest to the group. Let them know that we need more hands on this to speed it up. To make it as lucrative as possible.
Do you want to handle the El end of things? You're more familiar with it.

We'll need to make it clear that it'll be volunteer work to start out. The place is on the border of ready to go: we need advertising, staffing, and we'll start paying as soon as we can. It needs a name too, though ideally we won't put that down to a public vote.
[ He and Markus never quite pinned that one down, worked on everything else first. But he'd rather not offer that up to the group. He's seen too many gag reports on naming contests gone wrong. ]
[ Oh, that's a good thought. Stephen takes a second to skim through the frankly alarming selection of sporting facts his tendency to store visual information has gathered for him over the years: Lions, Tigers, Pistons and... ]
Red Wings is the name of their hockey team. Their logo isn't so bad either if we want something eye catching for the sign. I doubt the copyright's carried over.
It's probably easy to get things that revolve around the color red, too. We don't need to use the same logo. Markus might not be around, but I'm an artist myself. I can mock something up that'll work in neon.
[Hopefully, one of this world's corporations wasn't Little Caesar's in a past life and is holding on to the copyright.]

[Idly, she thinks: not just Markus, but for Shaw, too. Another lost in her life.]

Some people apparently keep links to them in their Cooltalk profiles. Have you noticed?
[This is off the track, but ... well. Clarke has noticed.]
