I need a couple of people to go monster hunting with me. Capturing, not killing.

Cowards and slowpokes need not apply.

[The end. For once there's very little entertainment value to be found in her words.]

For what purpose are you capturing creatures of the Mist?

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

I made a deal with someone.

Well...actually, it's more like repaying a favor.

[ voice ]

[xnoble_reasonx]

What will they be used for?

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

Someone will be facing them in the arena. I can get you VIP seating, if you'd like.

[will_shoot]

[This sounds like a wonderful opportunity to get out, see the city, meet people ... and shoot things!]

Hello. I am EVE, and I would like to offer my services.

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

[A kindred spirit!]

Another girl...?

No, that's great! I'm Elena.

[ voice ]

[will_shoot]

[Bonding over bullets!]

[She sounds slightly confused for a moment,] Is there a gender discrepancy? Will this pose an issue?

I am EVE. I look forward to meeting you and helping with your mission!

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

No! No issues! It's just that it's normally a lot of guys volunteering for this kind of thing. This is good for a change. Plus we haven't met, so I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do.

So...basically what you just said.

[stray_gunner]

What's the point of hunting without killing?

[[ooc: Kinda OT, but do you still wanna continue that Dismas log or just handwave it?]]

[ video ]

[wellsuited]

I doubt an arena battle against a dead monster would be that exciting.

((OOC: Whichever you'd prefer. I do remember that it's my turn and I can tag if you'd like to continue it.}}

[ video ]

[stray_gunner]

[He pauses, and there's barely contained unreadable emotion in both his voice and expression.]

You're putting them in the arena.

[[ooc: It's your choice, but if you do continue so will I. ><]]

[ video ]

[wellsuited]

Don't worry, you don't have to fight them. It was a special request.

((OOC: *goes to tag now*))

[ voice ]

[lonestray]

I can help out.

[Private]

[Oh good lord, what the hell is he even doing.]

Hn.

...You...? [Trails off. Awkwardness fail: +1]

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

Great! But you and Senji don't need to turn this into a competition or anything. I don't need every last monster out there.

[Private]

[A moment of confusion. Is he talking about what she -thinks- he's talking about? Or in this case, not talking about.

Him? Surely not! And yet...]

Don't worry about it. I'm not.

[ voice ]

[lonestray]

Competition is more Senji's thing than mine.

[Private]

[...Waiiit. Are they talking about the same thing?]

Er. I was...uh. Trying to ask if you were...a-all right.

[A beat] What were you talking about?

[ voice ]

[wellsuited]

Hmm. It really is, isn't it?

[Private]
[Aha! She was right! He was talking about what she thought he was talking about! Which means that they were talking about the same thing.]

I know. And thanks.

But I'm not worried about it. Now I have more time for my work. The arena, being a Turk...those things are important.

[voice, private]

[eternalscorpion]

I can assist you.

[He sighs.]

Seeing as how both of the individuals I was working the most closely with have seen fit to disappear, I have a bit more flexibility in my schedule.

Also, I think this sort of thing would be beneficial for the both of us in cementing our working relationship.

[voice, private]

[wellsuited]

[She's glad to hear that. Well...not about the disappearances, obviously.]

I was about to contact you, actually.

I...

[Chin up.]

I look forward to working for you and I have complete faith that it will benefit the both of us.

[voice, private]

[eternalscorpion]

You're free to contact me whenever you wish. I don't mind.

[There's a bit of approval in his tone.]

...Spoken like a true professional.

Perhaps you could elaborate on your plans. What sort of creatures are you interested in?
