Description summary:
The first paragraph varies based on the current Leader of the Tracklayers, while the second paragraph varies depending on how many of Furnace's Faces remain.

Leader	First Paragraph
Cornelius	You put the case to the Union, but they don't care for your guidance. After the failed vote, Furnace paces in your sitting room. "They really prefer to follow Cornelius! If they'd chosen someone half-competent, I wouldn't have minded."
Fires' Lackey	[...] Furnace curls up in your best armchair and hugs a pillow to her chest. "They really prefer to follow Gerard!" Trust Furnace to know the man's name. No one [...] ever calls him that. "He was a tolerable short-term leader at best, but he has no strategy! [...]"
Your Lackey
January	You put the case to the Union, but they don't care for your guidance. After the failed vote, Furnace paces in your sitting room. "They really prefer to follow January! If they'd chosen someone half-competent, I wouldn't have minded."

Faces	Second Paragraph
1	No other voices contradict her. They can't, these days. But still she paces, as though her body does not quite agree with her words.
3	"Untrue," says a second voice in her helmet. "We all would have minded. What else are we here for?"
