Ugh, still haven't posted. My minds been kind of blank the last couple of days, and I've been in a video gaming mood. Lots of GTA V and Terraria, playing both with people. Also, watching an episode of a show and a movie with terrible acting. I'd be watching more movies/shows if I wasn't busy spending my time playing video games.

I'm going to TRY to force myself to post tonight though, despite what my mind wants me to do.


Edit: I hate not posting because I hate making people wait for me.

Corrian,

Since you have not showed Andrew being a bully yet, how about Bramwell or Sakura as the first demonstration?

Maybe. I need the right things going on and the right people to get proper ideas to not make it look as stupid as it usually does when I make bully characters. To make it look like he at least puts SOME effort into it compared to my other bullies who are just like, blaring out stupid things and making themselves look like the idiots.

Not that Andrew won't, but still.

Kira looked concerned and frowned, and I'm pretty sure Caitlin thought something about it, too. They may of not acknowledged it greatly, but they did acknowledge it slightly :P

This reminds me though that I was going to have Cassie think about the fact that Simon scares her...As much as Cassie is a sweet girl, and would feel bad for being scared of Simon if she knew he was just a troubled guy who isn't really a bad guy, she can't help but just be scared of him and may not give him as much of a chance as, say, Kira, or even maybe Caitlin.

Or maybe Simon, since he's having like, a breakdown.

He might of seen him enough to know that bullying him might be a BAD idea.

Maybe he can become a time-efficient bully and simultaneously bully both at the same time.

How much money did they get from each of the missions? I think Caitlin went on like 3 and Cassie went on one. I'm trying to figure out how much money they have.

An odd thing I learned years ago that I forget about the reason of why I learned it: national affiliates of the ICRC are the ones who handle disaster relief, so it would specifically be the national affiliate of Japan (the Japanese Red Cross Society) that would be handling disaster relief. The actual ICRC is dedicated to upholding the Geneva Conventions and assisting civilian populations in war zones and organizing medical care in the conflict and arbitrating for warring parties rather than providing disaster relief.

On another note, I decided to have some fun and try to figure out what the emergency response to a nuclear explosion in Tokyo would probably involve.

Something Interesting I have not found is evidence of Japan having CBRN defense capabilities, so it is probable that Japan would rely upon CBRN assets from other nations. Due to already having assets within Japan and its defense obligations and the incident definitely being what the Chief of Staffs would call a "Pinnacle", it is probable that the United States would deploy the USAF CBRN defense personnel already stationed within Japan, some probably already within the metropolis due to Yokota Air Base (from the description of the distance at which the bomb was instantly lethal and an understanding that such an event would probably have been done in Chiyoda City [Tokyo is basically a prefecture rather than a city], Yokata Air Base would be well out of the way of the radiological threat). The USDoE's Nuclear Emergency Support Teams would probably send hundreds of personnel to Tokyo in response to the threat due to population density. Other response from the United States would probably be the deployment of the US Army's Chemical Corps and the USMC's Chemical Biological Incident Response Force. In addition to that, we can expect the FDNY to deploy HAZMAT-capable personnel to the city alongside various other HAZMAT-capable fire departments.

There are other CBRN assets that may be deployed should Japan agree to their deployment and the governments involving having the logistics capabilities to actually run CBRN defense operations within Japan. China may deploy members of the Honk Kong Fire Services Department due to their HAZMAT training. Canada's CBRN defense, due to having a large amount of CBRN defense handled by local governments, is likely to deploy municipal emergency services to Japan such as CAN-TF3. Similarly, the United Kingdom actually expects emergency services to maintain some level of CBRN defense capabilities, so it is likely that assets could come from the United Kingdom as well.

Going beyond the question of CBRN defense, there would be question of casualties. For simplicity, I shall make every number 1/3 of the stated statistic of Little Boy for simplicity's sake since 500 out of 1600 is close enough for somebody who does not feel any interest in mathematics. Including the blast, everything within 1,166 meters of the bomb would probably be destroyed. There would also be the problem of a 123 meter fireball 123 meters in diameter which would probably inspire the creation of a fire-line around the blast-damaged area since 20 minutes after the detonation there is really high chance that a firestorm with a diameter of 1066 meters will happen that can spread from there (also 20 minutes after the blast will be all of the radioactive material in the mushroom cloud landing). Due to the fact it was not an air burst, there would be a crater and fallout. The radius at which radiation will definitely be lethal to anybody without sufficient protection will be about 433 meters.

Due to the probable location within Chiyoda City, it is possible that such places as the National Diet Building could be within the 1,166 meter range of buildings that are utterly destroyed, putting major government figures into the casualty count or possibly members of the Imperial House of Japan. Considering the population density of Chiyoda City and the range at which people are going to be instantly killed, immediate casualties could be around 4,564.

Due to population density, what would be needed in addition to CBRN defense assets for firefighting and S&R would probably be medical assistance. There would be an influx of potentially tens of thousands of new patients into hospitals from injuries most likely caused by the firestorm (assuming it happens) and secondly from radiation injuries. Because of this, what could be expected would be for a response would be an attempt by emergency services to create a fire break around the blast-damaged area while CBRN defense assets, most likely from Yokota Air Base initially, would handle S&R. Also attempted would probably be the establishment of triage to categorize people by severity of injuries and somewhat alleviate the sudden influx of people by directing the less seriously injured to either hospitals further away or to aid stations. As assistance arrives, field hospitals will be established by the JSDF, Japanese Red Cross Society, and US Military (including the newly reactivated 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital which will be deployed from Korea of course). Non-CRBN defense assets deployed to Tokyo will most likely be medical in nature. Due to the date of the thread, the USNS Mercy hospital ship will not be available due to participation in Operation Damayan, though the Chinese Navy's Peace Ark will not have deployed at the time and might be offered as assistance.

One wonders how this incident will affect the IC 2020 Summer Olympics that are to be held in Tokyo.

The important part is that Makoto is saying that she recognizes that Josh has a secret, but Cassie's "not human" comment has her worried that anybody outside of the group overhearing it will promptly talk about it and accidentally dignify surface aspects of conspiracy theories. Basically, Makoto just explained why she (and, by extension of her will, Bramwell and Sakura) had no intent of revealing the secret if they did, that being dignifying some intellectually-deficient beliefs. In Josh's case, the ancient astronaut proponents would be dignified just due to the improbability of two ridiculously similar species evolving separately on different planets and also creationists due to evolution commonly being not convergent but divergent, thus making aliens who are indistinguishable from humans look like a prime opportunity to argue that evolution cannot be real if two ridiculously similar species just so happened to evolve on different planets.
