[ yeah, about that... bad people tend to run together, if you want to categorize them so. people of the same ilk, should we say? probably not the best name to publicly associate himself with but if it kept the association away from Izaya Orihara, he'd present himself under Magato's name any day.
hmm...
he hadn't actually intended to meet with him in person but given his response, Izaya considers it. it could only suit him to gain this fellow's trust, right? that he's kept his face and real identity hidden away is fine until you truly desire an honest exchange. when presenting a dishonest face, you can only expect to receive the same in return. he could send Magato, but he doesn't trust him or his ability to persuade (peacefully persuade, rather) enough to retrieve what he wants. the only question that remains is whether he'll be working for Leaks' sake or against him. he hasn't made up his mind entirely... but to show his face to an enemy is a mistake, so he'll need to decide soon. and the scales lean in Leaks' direction for the potential of things he has to learn from him. ]
Very well. 6 PM. Meet me in the Fire District-- I've attached a map with a place marked on it, where we should be able to speak alone. I'll be bringing an associate along, just to verify that there are no surprises.

[ Hey, it's not like he ever really believed you some kinda saint in the first place, Izaya. False name, false device, false whatever - none of it really mattered. Just the fact you're in this business in the first place has already got you labeled the shady type. Only difference is how dark you're willing to go.
There's a wry grin on Badou's end of the feed, eye lingering a little along the last portion of that message. He sighs, lifting a free hand to rub at the back of his neck.
One of these days, Dave, he promises he'll know better. ]
fyi, having someone else along ain't exactly "speaking alone." make sure he's just the muscle.

[ though he can't promise to keep Magato's lips sealed, he's a rather annoying guy for all his skill. whoops. but he'll keep that to himself. ]
