01. Video

[The video feed began, and Naoto would appear on the screen, dressed in her usual hat, fine jacket and neck tie, perhaps even more refined than usual. Sitting at her desk, she'd made sure that the area where the video would work was immaculate. First impressions were important after all.]

Good day, Saeng Seong; my name is Naoto Shirogane. I have met some of you already, but to those who I've yet to meet, I felt it was important to make this video to properly introduce myself.

In my own world, I am a detective working with various police organizations across Japan, helping them solve 'unsolvable crimes'. Obviously, Saeng Seong is relatively peaceful...

[Ignoring the Mutant Snowmen...]

But, I find it still prudent to be prepared. Thus, I'd like to announce that by Wednesday next week, the Shirogane Detective Agency will be opening in District 3. If you ever are in need of assistance, please consider coming to the agency or contacting me.

[She tipped her hat towards the screen, offering them a small smile.]

Please, also feel free to ask any questions you may have here.

[Filtered for Mitsuru and Fuuka]

[For these two, there would be a continuation of the feed, Naoto's smile still there.]

Fuuka-san, Kirijo-san; I am aware this is sudden, but I would like to extend an invitation to the two of you. I would be honoured if you'd consider working with me at my agency.

[Naoto leaned back somewhat, her eyes keeping that calm look, but there was a level of uncertainty; would they even be interested? Or would they doubt her sincerity?]

You're both talented women and I trust in your abilities to be able to compliment my own weaknesses. I hope to hear back from you, but the invitation will always be opened.

[Akihiko can't help feeling impressed by her initiative. He's always had respect toward authority figures, like Officer Kurosawa.]

That's a great idea. Even if there hasn't been much going on yet, who knows when that'll change...

If you need any help, let me know, okay? Doesn't matter if it's field work, or admin-related. I've always wanted to learn more about stuff like this.

[Remembering her speech pattern, he relates it to the way Mitsuru speaks. He thinks she would probably prefer more formal language, unless indicated otherwise.]

Yes. I had helped out Kurosawa-san sometimes, back home. He's a police officer. I haven't had experience with detective work, but it's similar, right?

Do you know him? He works at the station in Paulownia mall on Port Island.

[He listens to her explanation without interruption, nodding at the end.]

That makes sense. Have to admit, I'm more interested in field work, but I'll need to learn the other aspects of the job too. [Akihiko quirks a brow at her rather surprising statement.] At your age? Heh, that's pretty impressive.

Dojima-san? Is that a colleague of yours?

Hey, if you're ever in the area, I'll introduce you to him. He helped our team a lot during the-uh, that incident we talked about, before. [Despite how many people might know about the situation already, he still isn't comfortable discussing it in a public forum. He has Mitsuru's reputation and desire for discretion to think of.]

Yes, I know. I'm willing to do whatever it takes, though. Nothing in life ever comes easily.

[His smile is a little wry, but he doesn't elaborate on her remark. He hasn't exactly been very social in the past couple of months.] He definitely sounds like someone I can respect. So he's like a mentor to you, huh?

All right. I’ll keep that in mind.

[That isn’t something he’s thought very much about. He just kind of assumes that everyone would keep their memories when they went back home.

Akihiko nods, maintaining his friendly exterior.]
That’s fine. No rush. I just want to help out however I can.

Distaste? [He frowns in mild confusion.] Because of your age? [He doesn’t personally see gender being an issue. Mitsuru is, after all, an extremely competent person, and that has nothing to do with her being a woman.] Or did he think you weren’t experienced enough?

[A detective agency does sound pretty unnecessary (mutant snowmen aside,) but Crystal's always had a respect for the law. At least -- she's never gone breaking them of her own free will, unlike some people she could mention.

"You seem pretty young for a detective," would be a normal person's response -- but the Pokémon world has people not much older as Gym Leaders. Put your mind to it, and you can become it.]


Would you be willing to investigate things that aren't crimes or cases? [A very important prelude to her inquiry. It's not even something she's big on -- just a nagging curiosity that keeps coming up in the back of his mind, with not much to do.]
capturespecialist: (12. let's talk about this like adults)

It's more of research than anything serious, but if you could find out anything about the city's history, I'd be glad. I'd check the library, but an acquaintance of mine mentioned that section of it burned down in a fire a while ago. I wanted to know about the circumstances behind it... It's just something I'm curious about, it's nothing important.

[She's sure that, you know, it's no big deal or whatever. Plenty of things catch fire and sometimes burn down. In her hometown, a tower burned down around a hundred and fifty or so years ago, so...

But, with not much else to do, it'd was just bugging her.]

[Good idea -- she makes a note to check them out as soon as possible, then nods.]

Thank you -- I'd like that a lot. I'm not sure I'll find out anything you haven't already uncovered, but I'll let you know if anything interesting comes up. I get the feeling I'm going to be spending a lot of my free time around the city anyway.

[At first, she was a bit surprised at the invitation. Sure, she had worked with law enforcement back home, but to work at a detective agency had never been something she thought about.

Then again, perhaps she could lend her own talents to help out, whatever they could be when it came to the occupation in question.
]

I would be delighted to help you out, Shirogane. Though I must ask what it is that I would be doing exactly.

[Or rather, what did she possess that would help to cover Naoto's possible weaknesses?]

[She's quiet as Naoto went on to explain everything. And she had to be honest, most of it sounded much like how things were done back home for the Group.]

It sounds like something I would be able to handle. So I say yes, consider me interested. Even if I haven't been head of the company for too long, what I've learned over the years should be enough.

[If not, well, she'll just have to adjust what she knows and expand on it.

Though there had been something else that caught her attention.
]

You mentioned 'different factions'. Would you mind explaining that a bit more?
icyexecutions: (Your bs does not compute.)

Excusez-moi, but did I hear you correctly when you said I've been CEO for two years?

[That was...definitely some time indeed. Hard to really process given her own time frame, but definitely some time.

Ah, but she was asked a question. So quick recovery!
]

It was only 2010 back home. Early 2010, to be more precise.

[But two years between them? The idea that some people were brought from different points in their lives was one thing, but the idea that someone from years down the road was a bit baffling.]

Not at all. [She definitely understands. With networks like this, there really was no telling what may or may not be watched/listened in on.] When and where would you like to meet up and discuss this?

[She was going to ask if she could help Naoto in someway, so the invitation is a pleasant surprise. Deeply pleased, she is already smiling as her video starts.]

Shirogane-san, I would be honored to work with you and Mitsuru~! You are both so talented, I know I could learn a lot more from the both of you. I will do my best to serve.

[Bowing, she raises her head, her smile still wide as ever. Finally, she could have a real purpose again.]
topgun_textiles: (I guess that's okay.)

Yo. Got need for a security guy?

[He's down for lugging furniture into the new place, of course, but hey. Let him throw out unruly jerks.]

[Daaaahh, c-cut that out with the cute face!]

Y'never know, man. But if y'got guys standin' around givin' mean looks, nobody gets ideas in their head to make the place less 'civil', y'know?

Quiet days can mean I go on coffee runs and deliver mail or whatever.

[With that, a small sound in his throat. That Chinese place was really good. For a moment he was quiet, not really considering as he wants to play a little hardball. The walking stomach doesn't look at the camera and shrugs stiffly.]

I-I toldja I don't wanna be paid for that kinda stuff!

...Jus' don't treat every time I come help out, y'hear me?
topgun_textiles: (I guess that's okay.)

[W-whoa, what'd that mean? Ahh, but he feels like he's too dumb to work it out.]

Oh... Clive? He's a handful, man, and he's barely a week old. Follows me around everywhere and eats like one'a those black holes.

[Like 'mother', one guesses.]
topgun_textiles: (How should I put it...)

[personal profile] topgun_textiles 2014-02-14 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Gahh, why'd she have to say it like that!? She could'a said 'father', but... alright, he -did- help the bird hatch and... well, shit, he's not even piping up to correct her.]

Nuts sometimes, but... veggies, man. All kinds'a veggies. Broccoli, carrots, celery-

[He pauses, looks around, and lowers his voice.]

-Spinach. His favorite. Can't say the word unless I got some in the kitchen somewhere or he goes crazy lookin' for it.
topgun_textiles: (Wait.. y'sure?)

[personal profile] topgun_textiles 2014-02-14 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ahh, you're gonna spoil him. ...Wait, s'it spoiling if you're not givin' 'em sweets?
topgun_textiles: (To Ponder)

[personal profile] topgun_textiles 2014-02-25 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
...Damn, I dunno. Maybe it'll give him that growth spurt he's missin' out on- the other babies are gettin' huge, but he's still a little guy.
topgun_textiles: (Denial)

[personal profile] topgun_textiles 2014-02-25 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
... S-sure. Clive really likes you. [You hear that? That's a big bird going weeeeehh!! when he hears a familiar voice over the communicator watch.]

I gotta take him for a walk pretty soon though, so I gotta run, man. I'll seeya later!
