Fair enough.
But to go back to your original question, no, I don't think Retrospec is trying to kill us, despite all the danger. There's something else they want, but we haven't teased out the specifics of it yet.
If you've got questions on anything else, please, feel free to message me at any time. I've been doing my best to investigate things since the beginning, and sometimes, explaining what's happened to someone else helps me out.

Good news. He lives. Just remembered his partner dropping by to visit him.
THANK GOODNESS.
That was not a thought I wanted to linger on. Too many people are pretty sure they've remembered the death of the other person. So. Good.

I'm pretty relieved myself.
Of course, now I get to know about yet another of Ryuuzaki's issues.
He is completely in love with his partner. I don't know if she reciprocates though.
[Togusa is so very not sorry for bursting out laughing on his end. Oh that is priceless!]
Kind of sweet, if you ask me.
Did you remember some post-near-death-experience confession? You would do that.

[hdu Togusa, he's not that huge a sap yes he is, you have him
right on the nose]
If only it was that simple. You know how I said he got first aid at some point the night he was shot? She was the one who gave it to him. And then he basically told her goodbye when she asked him to explain what was going on. 'I'm probably going to disappear.' 'I'm the kind of person you can't forgive.' Shit like that. And then she turns up at his apartment two days later with food and tells him to get well and come back to work because she needs her partner.
They have a complicated relationship.
[Tatuso is judging his other self so hard right now. SO HARD.]
Oh NO! He pulled the 'I'm too dangerous to be around?' That's even worse! I am so sorry you have to watch this play out.
[Laughing with Tatsuo, not at him, Togusa promises...]
Complicated's a word for that. At least she probably does like him.
[Laughing with Tatsuo, not at him, Togusa promises...]

Well, it was less the 'I'm too dangerous to be around' and more the 'I did this thing and you said you'd hate me forever if I did this thing.' Basically.
What makes you think she likes him?
[Tatsuo wonders himself, but feels his opinion on the matter is probably tainted by Ryuuzaki's own feelings.]
It was your dream, but I don't think you could see the look on her face when you/Ryuuzaki were on the ground outside of the building. He scared her good.
Ah, but she wasn't actually present at that point. He left her behind in the tunnel when he went to go find Tacchan.
[and about two seconds after he hits 'send' he realizes what he typed]
And the plot thickens! Okay, so who might this be?
[Nope. Sorry. A hard time will be forever given about this.]
[Nope. Sorry. A hard time will be forever given about this.]
Tatsuya. Danno Tatsuya. Ryuuzaki's childhood best friend and foster brother. And the guy Ryuuzaki took a bullet for.
So. To recap. She wasn't even there when Ryuuzaki got shot. But when your mind needed help in the dream, she was one of the people that got brought in?
Yes. Which speaks more to Ryuuzaki's feelings for her than her feelings for him.

How would you like to help us help you out? Your observation period's up and I want you on this particular assignment. You'll be fine, you're probably not going to die, and we'll be able to monitor you from here. We need help. You've got the skills needed even if you don't know it yet. I know it and that's what counts.
You'll be working with a group (wish I could give you the names, still putting the lists together), but your assignment partner is Sora Pu'uwai. Should you choose to accept this assignment, you will need to meet at Peach Beach tomorrow morning and we'll go from there.
You'll be rewarded for your success, of course, but this is only if we have an agreement. Do we have an agreement?
[No other messages will be sent from this account at this time.]
[ooc: Hello! You've been sorted into group 1. Your event log will go up at 9pm EST along with all of the other logs. We encourage you to read the main event log as well for more information about your recruiter and this note. In the meantime, head on over to this thread on the latest mod post to meet your teammates! Thank you!]

I am, for whatever reason, helping Retrospec with whatever it is they need.
After last time this happened, I suspect there will be more fighting ahead.
I have my sword, but I'm worried that won't be enough.
Is there a legal way you could lend me a gun and some clips?

Now there's a loaded question. Mind the pun.
How much of your firearm training have you had yet? Are you sure you're even up for using a gun in a combat setting? Let's start there.

The hardest lesson in this job is to know that you cannot be prepared for everything. What if X happens and I'm not ready? It's not a question that ever goes away.
With a gun, untrained, there's a chance you could do more harm than good. How prepared do you think you are for that?

[There is an exceptionally long pause before Togusa's response. Cleo knows enough to know that this is a burden she's asking for, not an easy way out. Does he dare try to tell her she shouldn't need it?]
[He trusts her skill without it. She doesn't. Or she wouldn't be asking.]
My apartment.

My apartment.
Already shipped out?
Ask me about this again after you've seen what you're up against, then.
Anybody I know joining you on this bus trip?
