So you want to be a sleuth (ACTION)

[jerks22]

The truth is right in front of you, and still you won't believe. I guess you'll have to learn sooner or later.

If your muses are interested in the truth, make a subthread here describing where they're going and what they're doing. There are 5, maybe 6 things to discover. If your intuition is on the money, you're sure to find out something...

Perhaps the fact that the boy doesn't seem to panic nearly enough is a sign that he himself is either not all he seems or simply more reliable then his youthful outwards appearance made obvious. A small, slightly sad smile, touches his face.

"Sorry, but that IS it. At least it is now. I don't really know the details, I wasn't told anything, but apparently some tests were done to see if it was even a real card or something else. It probably isn't any good anymore, but at the very least 'he' won't have to worry about it being used by anyone else. Its not as good as just getting it back, but it should still prevent a lot of problems, right?"

Though the man was strange, the one he was talking too seemed stranger. The one he had met asking questions of pedestrians had seemed more innocent, trusting, and eager to please. This one seemed, by contrast, cockier. He couldn't imagine a kid talking about power whatsoever. Well, it wasn't like he had many options.

"I see. He'll need another, then. I wished to compensate him for his service. That will have to come later. While the caution of your superiors is well-placed, they should not make a mistake like that again. It might cost them dearly."

He paused for a moment, then picked up right where the last conversation left off.

"So, do you accept my terms?"

Mistakes like that might not have been made if Mami had more time to find out just what sort of person Luke was. She normally didn't try to imitate a person until she knew that person well. This whole idea had been spur of the moment, though. She had the most basic amounts of knowledge and that was it.

"Sorry about that. It wasn't really something I could control. I am pretty sure they didn't even want me coming out here, but if there was a chance to help, I knew I had to do it! But I'm sure that we can help 'him' after everything settles down."

The boy seems to have accepted that the person they are talking to isn't a person at all. It might have been harder to believe for the real Luke, but to Mamizou, the concept of the supernatural was commonplace. It could be argued that it was simply natural to her. Was this some sort of ghost, or perhaps something else?

"I accept. I want to do what I can to make things right."

It was such a cheesy line, Mamizou felt like she might have to apologize to the real Luke once she met him face to face, simply for having him say such a thing.
