Tempting a montage (backdated 6/23)

Vyers(Midboss)
A few minutes after we first met, you said you'd make a fighter of me yet. Well, now is as good a time as any to make good on that promise. I don't care whether you really meant it!

Provided you have time, of course. I know how long keeping up appearances can take, if my experience with women and bathrooms is any indication, to say nothing of Attleton.


Darklaw
Ms. Darklaw, if you have a minute, might you come and discuss your future? Oh, that sounded most vulgarly corporate, didn't it? Well, forgive that and talk to me anyway.


BJ
(puts on his serious voice) BJ, there is something that I must know very clearly, at all costs. If one plays Danmaku, as it's meant to be played, could one be said to be practicing sorcery? I must know.


Yuna
It'd be foolish of me to ignore your offer of service, especially coming from the one who preceded me. Might I have the pleasure of the Gullwings' service, and make use of you for the troubles ahead?


Luke
Prepare your most trying of puzzles, Luke, for I have need of them. When next I visit, I shall be very disappointed if my brain does not swell to bursting!

I'm listening.

(OOC: Is she known by Darklaw? Can handwave that into Hopkins)

I'm on the hunt for deputies, and from what I could gather during the debate, ours seem wonderfully similar. Does that appeal to you?

[inquisitoring]

[Currently she's known by Hopkins, so let's just handwave it.]

I would be, certainly. I will be quite willing.

[youfool]

Wonderful! Oh, one thing first. If you don't mind, I'd like to take you for a test run. How would you feel about traveling the streets tomorrow? Morning, of course, that's probably the safest time. There's a mystery I'd like to find out concerning that place, and I could use your help.

[inquisitoring]

That shouldn't be a problem. May I ask what the mystery is?

[youfool]

The mystery of what the people really think. The democratic process of Genessia concerns me; I'd like to try and divine the citizens' true thoughts on quite a few things. Both on what they thought on the latest democratic exercise, and possibly what they might think of some policy changes in the future. I dare say mine will prove very unpopular.

In other words, I'm afraid we'll have to get our hands dirty with that most loathsome of suburban subterfuge: surveying. How are you for armaments, by the by?

[inquisitoring]

That should be a simple task. A survey is quite well within my wheelhouse as you'll find out.

As in weapons or armaments for surveying?

[youfool]

Both. I can provide paper and pens, naturally, but I'm sad to say the position is a pretty dangerous one, especially given whom I've made enemies with. You ought to have at least a sidearm. I can provide one of those two, as well as some training in basic use, if you need.

Hah, not the most glamorous internship, I know. Still, how does it strike you?

[inquisitoring]

It fancies me just fine. I have a blade; it will serve me well.

I'm not one for glory.

[youfool]

Good! Let's meet bright and early just past the gate connecting Everglade to Genessia City, then.

[inquisitoring]

Very well, I shall meet you there.

[gullwingsgunner]

That was the point of my new work. To help anyone that asks for it. Although within reason, I suppose. But I'm sure it is nothing bad in this case except making sure things are okay.

[beautifulmidboss]

Hmhm, now that you have attained the mantle of Guardianship, I imagine you'll need it.

I'm sure we can work something out once you have settled in.

[Give him a minute.]

...Wait, what were you implying about moi?? My appearance is very important!

Re: [Video, Private]

[youfool]

[Aww, he was hoping it'd be right away. Not like Guardians have anything to do, mumblegrumble]

All right. Thank you, and sorry for the short notice.

Oh, I can see that! It's just the priority it takes; one might think...oh, but that's of no account. Happy Tuesday!

[Video, Private]

[beautifulmidboss]

[Of course not! They're very busy putting roses up all over their offices and--oh, wait, that's just Midboss.]

No problem at all. Let's catch up on the point in a few days time, then.

What sort of a Guardian would I be if I did not take care to inspire my people with my beauty? It would simply be negligence otherwise!

[lookprofessor]

If your brain bursts, then you can't solve any puzzles. What about a puzzle that just makes you think very hard?

Aren't you very busy now, too, because of work? I'm surprised you have time, but I'll be ready!

Well--mostly ready. Headache giving ready. Not brain bursting ready.

Re: [Voice]

[youfool]

Very true! But I don't have to work, but merely prepare for work. Hence, my request. I'll see you shortly!
