Groups/Operations

## Types of groups

### Training groups

Meant to train those who have arrived back from re-education, then they are transferred out to wherever they are needed. Almost none of these exist anymore outside the west due to shortages of people who would train others. These new recruits go to regular groups instead.

#### Regular groups

A group of trained people who all live, eat, sleep together in the same building.

There is lots of time dedicated to patrolling and demon slaying. Rebels try to rob them, ambush them, or kill them— a sizable subset try to kidnap them. Either for blackmail, or for attempting to nonviolent "deprogramming" to remove the effects of brainwashing to rid an AO of their miserable lack of self-determination. Rare is it that a kidnapping is successful.

Everyday is started by waking up and eating in the mess hall as schedules are debriefed. Most days are usual patrol, but sometimes special missions with the police task force are required. Once every week or so, AOs participate in fundraisers or media presence in order to keep spirits (no not those ones) high! Though their masks always stay on when on duty.

If you have the day off, you need permission before you can leave the group. Your every movement is being tracked by a watch you're required to wear. If you remove the watch, your leader is alerted immediately and you will be hunted down and possibly executed or harshly punished.

Some AOs take quad shifts, aka 32 hours of work at once. AHs do not require as much rest as normal humans and they can stay up for an extra day or two. This can easily lead to exhaustion and slowed healing for wounds, though, along with higher levels of stress. But its doable!

AOs need a constant supply of food, three meals a day isn't enough, so they're constantly snacking and talking in the mess hall. This is where most people start bonding with each other.

They have group outings as well for bonding exercises, and many are seen hanging with each other outside of their base. Their group has a recreation room, with a bar, video games, and other such things.

These people are all in a desperate situation at all times, and are forced to trust each other for survival. This causes intense attachments to form, which is why its still devastating when someone dies. Even if you're used to it.

Because AHs don't take damage with everyday objects, there's tons of potential harmless slapstick to be had. Two AOs who are friends could be seen with one bashing the other over the head with a frying pan. Neither is hurt at all, and it's just another form of their humor.

**Fucking. Often.**

Anyone who isn't dense and naive knows they are going to die soon, probably before they get much older. An attitude of sexual positivity is almost everywhere in group life. Young adults and older teenagers with their hormones, all stuck in a large building together. Things are gonna happen, lets be honest!

A general shared idea is that since they will die soon, they might as well experiment and have as much fun as they can. Experimenting with sexuality, and polyamorous relationships are overwhelmingly common. Some groups has every member involved with each other in some shape or form. Consent and age gaps are treated with intense importance and if a member is found breaking those two norms they will probably be beaten to death. Which they'd deserve.
