It's fascinating the way people choose to express themselves when speech and writing can no longer be relied upon. You're quite the creative group

Thank you. [pen taps in the same spot for a bit] Are these 'times of emergency' frequent?

[felinemystique]

I wouldn't say frequent, but they do happen.

[suffercircuit]

If they happen at all, then they happen more times than necessary.

[The rest is delayed for a minute or so] Is the Guard open to recruitment?

[felinemystique]

Well, nothing everything can be prevented, so we prepare and respond as best we can.

I generally don't hire very new arrivals--I like someone to get used to this place before potentially putting someone's safety in their hands. But you're welcome to interview in a month or so.

[suffercircuit]

Maybe.

Ah, don't worry, I wouldn't do it without knowing my own capabilities first. Thank you, Captain.

[felinemystique]

You're welcome, and that's very sensible of you. I didn't catch your name, by the way.

[suffercircuit]

I'm doing a great job at looking professional... sorry for my manners. I'm Light.

[felinemystique]

No need to apologize--I don't stand on much ceremony. I just wanted to make sure I remembered you in case you decided to apply for a job some time.

[suffercircuit]

Ah, all right. Thanks for your patience, Captain.
