[Action / Nova City Guardian Office / Backdated to the 16th]
[It had been a day or so since Glynda arrived. Upon settling in, Glynda had expressed interest in taking a job alongside him at the Honnouji Academy in Genessia. It is with this in mind that had Ozpin escorting Glynda to the Student Council President's office so as to introduce her to his boss.]
[He had to suppress a chuckle as he entered the building. Never would he have thought that he'd be suggesting someone to work under Satsuki considering how they had met, but he'd fostered a healthy respect for her. The longer he had spent at the school the more he saw her subordinates interacting with her, and the more he realized she wasn't attempting to conquer for conquering's sake. In many ways she reminded him of a friend back home.]
Thank you for agreeing to meet with us on such short notice, Miss Kiryuin.
[He steps aside in the doorway, motioning for Glynda to enter and take a seat.]

Ozpin->Glynda->Satsuki sound good?
Thank you for seeing us.
Yus!
She has to admit since Glynda's mention, the raven-haired teen had been curious to see what kind of person is. Admittadly, she had been wanting to meet Ozpin face to face as well. (And let's just say for now that Satsuki and Ozpin worked out a reasonable deal to obtain his raise prior to this. The only reason she needed time was because she had wanted Yukihime's advice on how to handle that.) Satsuki herself is adorn in a uniform that, it knowledgable in Japanese culture in any way, could be noted as an amalgam of a school uniform and a military uniform.
She gets to her feet as they enter, shoulders straight.]
It is I that should be thanking you. I am very pleased to see teachers interested in teaching at this academy and it is in everyones best interests to place situations such as these in high priority.
[Then seats herself after the others. Wow. Glynda is tall.]
As Professor Ozpin has likely told you, I am Satsuki Kiryuin. I am currently Guardian of Nova City as well as.. Headmaster of Second Honnouji. [Beat.] I've still much to learn about how to handle situations outside of my culture, so I must ask for your patience should you find you still wish to work here after our meeting today.

I can personally vouch for Professor Goodwitch's credentials. We've worked as Hunters in our world for quite some time, and she has helped with the education of future Huntsmen and Huntresses for some time as well at my school.
In fact, I would even go so far as to say her practical ability far surpasses even my own, especially when it comes to combat.

She sits in her chair, almost as straight as she had been when standing.]
This place may not be like Remnant but that matters little when it comes to having this sort of education. It's best to be orderly and prepared. Even if such talents aren't needed in the future, it builds discipline.
[That is one of the rare things she had agreed with James on. She loved having everything in place.]
As Professor Ozpin says, I worked as a professor at Beacon for quite a few years. I've been more, how should I put it, more hands on than he has been. Watching over the sparring matches was one of my normal duties.
[She glances his way for a moment.] I wouldn't go that far. You're more of a tactician than I ever was.
no subject
I see. One of my goals here is to strike a balance between education focused on practicality and tactical combat. You may or may not be aware that there are no shortage of talented youth here in Genessia City but I have noticed first hand that organization skills are sorely needed. Others find themselves with lack a direction and in some cases are lethargic. I feel these two issues are a major part of the barrier that is hampering our potential to unify and discover a way out of this predicament.
[It's an extremely lofty project. But she's up for the task. But Glynda did mention one of Satsuki's favorite words: 'discipline'. 10 points to her.]
I would be interested in making use of whatever you can provide- And by the sounds of things it appears strategy would be the most beneficial. Sadly the dangers that lurk in Genessia are still largely unknown. Can you work with that kind of disadvantage?
no subject
[Ozpin is just going to smirk with no small sense of pride in his voice as he talks about Glynda's accomplishments. It's no secret that he's extremely proud of his friend.]
no subject
I understand if words won't be enough. If a demonstration of my skills is needed, I'll be honored to oblige.
no subject
A demonstration.. Would be welcome, but I would like to use something a bit unconventional to display your skill. Does chess exist in the world you hail from?
