[ Souji takes a serious demeanor, only it is intended to try not to alarm or scare much beyond enough proof those residing in every city in Genessia. ]

It is best to be prepared for any possible outcome. Protection is needed.

[ He really took the brief blackouts out of nowhere as some kind of omen. If Hijikata was here he would do a better job organizing a defense, but this will do, he thinks. ]

private text to Tomoe Himura;

Good day Tomoe-san! It is time for me to leave the Commonspace. I'll be going to Amatsu today.

[Insert a cacophony of internal swearing here]

Very good. Have you spoken with Kiritsugu-san? If not I can help set you up with a room.

[ooc; waaaah, I almsot missed this! ~~also psssst--it's Himura ;)~~]

[ Why Tomoe whyyy!? He's a sweet-eater doofus. ]

Unfortunately, no. I appreciate your help though. I thought of asking him about a possible job in Amatsu.

( ooc: i'm happy you didn't! :3 ~~lmao! i'm so sorry! already fixed! forgive my dyslexia ;;~~ )

[DX B-BUT SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS DONE WITH THE SPY LIFE AND HAVING TO CONSTANTLY WATCH HER STEP!!! /sob]

[Oh hell.]

It is not a problem.

[SHE LIES, IT'S A PROBLEM.]

I'm sure there are jobs available. Perhaps security. Kiritsugu-san actually inherited the Amatsu from a previous owner. He had been the head of security before that.

[ooc; me too! lmao I wonder how long it'll take her to just give in and be fraaaaans pfffff ~~no worries!~~]

[ SHE'S NOT SPYING ANYMORE. HE'S NOT IN THE SHINSENGUMI RIGHT NOW. LET'S BE FRIENDS ｡･ﾟﾟ*(>д<)*ﾟﾟ･｡ ]

Good! (〃＾▽＾〃) Then I'll head right away! First things first.

[ Oblivious, oblivious. ]

[ He already sets off for Amatsu, stopping by a confectionery to buy a box of mochi for Tomoe. After that, he follows the direction on the map to Fayren ~~a la Google Maps heh~~. ]

( ooc: the same amount of time it took for her to trust and love kenshin! souji is really prone to make friends quite easily! )

[WELL SHE DOESN'T KNOW HOW HE'LL REACT OKOK]

[And that sure is a face in that text....]

Very well. I will meet you at the front desk.

[HOW? HOW DOES SHE WIND UP DOING THESE THINGS TO HERSELF???]

[True to her word, she is waiting inside the main entrance, the picture of pristine elegance.]

Hello again, Okita-san.

[ooc; I give her a week XD]

[ OKKKKK XD ]

[ Yaaas! He had a lot of time in his hands to learn how to make emojis. AREN'T THEY CUTE?

He spots Amatsu after searching for many places around. What he sees leaves him in awe: an inn as large as a lord's home, quite pretty with hints of western decor actually.

Further inside, there's Tomoe waiting for him. He smiles as he gazes her up and down. ]

Ah! Tomoe-san! Is that really you?

( ooc: haha really!? >3a )

[At least she had warning that he was coming. She waves in response before tilting her head just a bit.]

Yes, of course.

[Who else would it be?]

[ooc; she has a track record of collecting killer cinnamon rolls, so...]

[ He approaches, giving the box of mochi to her. ]

You look rather different. [ --taking off his zori before stepping inside. ] I hope you like them.

( ooc: hahaha! poor soul! )

[She nods, replying with the appropriate thank you, taking the box from him.]

How is that...?

[Maybe she's fresh on the job today and hasn't spent six hours running around Genessia trying to put together last minute plans for a festival that got dropped in her lap? That could have something to do with it.]

[ooc; Tomoe's murder children (TM)]

Ah...

[ He fidgets, his face quite red and averting his eyes. Quick! Say something! ]

You look like... at the festival. Different

[ Souji was there, helping as promised. And noticed her with such a different and lively kimono.

Different, yeah. ]

( ooc: ;A; also hand-waving the festival event, heh! )

[:| well then. Ok.]

I see...

[OK, TIME FOR BUSINESS AS USUAL.]

[She turns and starts heading toward Ayame's former office (which is now technically Kiritusgu's office... but is functionally Tomoe's office...) rather than the front desk, expecting him to follow. Check in was for people who were coming for a day or two, not coming to live.]

I have the necessary paperwork in the office for both housing and employment--if that is what you were interested in, that is.

[ooc; is coo~ Also did you get him an official job? I don't know what positions are even open XD]

[ Awkward. ]

[ He follows behind her in silence. As they walk, the beauty of the place became more evident, and different from where he's from. Until they arrive to said office.

He answers nervously. ]

Y-Yes, of course! I can do anything, actually.

( ooc: hahaha nope! i think i would need kiritsugu's mun permission first. )

[Making other people feel awkward is her super power.]

[She moves to the desk, pulling out some forms and shuffling through them.]

It looks like... [insert description of a room location that is at least four doors removed from hers because THAT is awkward HERE 8D] is unoccupied... [she flips to another page] And as for job openings, there are positions [insert a laundry list of open positions here... including kitchen things that would put them in more contact than she'd likely be comfortable with /sob] available... though again, Kiritsugu will have the final say on any hiring. [She plucks out two forms, one or the room and one for employment, handing them to him. For the most part they are general questionnaires.]

Monthly rent is [insert that here I'm lazy] but for those living and working here it's usually just deducted from their pay. [That's what Ayame did for her anyway.]

[ooc; probably, but they're cool o7 I'd toss them a PM]

[ BAD TOMOE B< ]

[ He moves towards her, trying to read through the lines, only to be interrupted with two papers in front of him. ]

Do-- Do I need to sign this? [ Why is there so many questions!? Asdfghjkl. ] I don't mind it. I can work hard.

I used to be a servant since I was a child.

( ooc: aww~ thank you ^^ )

AGREED, PHONEXPERT!

[If only he'd gotten a name.]

THAT'S WHY I ALWAYS CARRY AN EXTRA HELPING OF BONES WHEREVER I DARE TREAD!! NYEH HEH HEH!

It is Okita, Papyrus-san.

[ ~~My bad sob~~ His voice sounds amused. ]

But do you have some other weapons to defend yourself?

OHO, YOU'VE FOUND SOME NEW COOL WORDS!!

THERE'S NO NEED FOR SOMETHING AS CRUDE AS THAT!! MY WEAPONS ARE MY BONES!! I'LL HAVE TO SHOW YOU MY INCREDIBLY COOL ATTACK SOME TIME, IF YOU CAN BELIEVE YOUR EYES!! REST ASSURED, I'M PERFECTLY "OKITA".

[That's the samurai word for "okay" right]

[ He laughs at that. ] Okita is my last name, Papyrus-san.

Then I'll gladly see it through. Your attack, that is.

OH! WELL WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO!?

SURE THING!! I'M SURE IT'LL "BLUE" YOU AWAY!!!

...FORGET I SAID THAT.

[sometimes his puns embarrass him.]

I'm sorry. Haha. [ ╮(￣ω￣;)╭ ]

[ He laughs even louder. ]

Will it really involve your bones?

OKITA. LOOK AT ME.

EVERYTHING I DO USES MY BONES!!!

Then we will need them to protect others.

GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!! I HAD THAT VERY IDEA WHEN I WENT TO JOIN THE ROYAL GUARD!!

[He never actually got in, but he kept that dream alive. Even though no sane person would ever grant it.]

PAPYRUS THE GREAT PROTECTOR!! IT HAS A NICE RING TO IT!!! YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME WHEN THE GUARDIAN ELECTIONS START!!!

...HEY, WHAT'S THIS "WE" TALK!? DO YOU HAVE SOMEONE IN MIND???

Oh! Did you join them? [ Haha, shattering, unwillingly. ]

Are there any here? I would certainly vote for you. [ He really means it. ]

[ His smile is one filled with resolve. ] Not exactly, but there will be others who would want to join us.

I WAS GOING TO!!! I JUST HAD TO GO THROUGH RIGOROUS TRAINING, OF COURSE. UNDYNE'S COOKING LESSONS ARE NO JOKE!!!

YES, I THINK SO!! AROUND THIS TIME OF MONTH. THANKS, I'D VOTE FOR YOU TOO!! IF YOU RAN.

JOIN??? THAT SOUNDS LIKE A CLUB!! ARE YOU FORMING A CLUB, OKITA???

[Perhaps of the fan variety?]

Why do you think we should be prepared?

That night... I've noticed some electrical (is that how it is called?) failure outside and in my phone. I coincidentally was up late.

[Rosinante noticed too, but he didn't think it was anything worth fussing about. An outside perspective can change a lot of things, though. And he thinks there might be something to it that he missed.] Why do you think it's anything to worry about?

I cannot describe but... even the air felt heavier than usual.

Are you especially perceptive to things like that? Or was it more of a general feeling?

Oh, not exactly! It would be general. Have you not had a similar sensation once?

I think I know what you're talking about. I just didn't stop to think that the outage might mean something more.

I only hope it is not something bad.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worse. It's easier that way.

The ones who know how to fight will manage. I worry for those who cannot.

It's the responsibility of those gifted with power to pick up the slack for those who don't.

[ That brings a smile. ]

You are correct.

Genessia is full of people who feel that way. So I think everyone will come out alright.
