... Possibly, actually.
There's a man here in a rather ridiculous costume.
Red.
I'm wondering if he's not the man you saw.

[standalonehuman]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I know you’re not. Is HE kidding me? Just. Gonna. Out in the open like that.

Don’t...hassle him? I guess? If he’s there to help? But.

Ughhh.

[cattack]

[She's attached an image to this text- A picture of Daredevil, in the Daredevil costume, though turning away from her.]

He turned away when he saw me lift my phone towards him, though.

[standalonehuman]

That's him! Just sitting on a damn bus in spandex like it's nothing!

[Togusa is just staring out into space with the most incredulous look on his face. The brass on this guy.]

Okay. Now's the time to remind you you're still a trainee. And that anyone wanting to help is a good thing. And that that's not Dante or Noctis or Prompto or James, so I actually don't know how powerful he is.

[cattack]

[Togusa... Poor Togusa.]

I understand, sir.
That said, looking at him, I get the feeling I could take him.
I've gotten some new magic.
And I don't get the feeling of someone strong from him.

[That's not foreshadowing at all!]

[standalonehuman]

Whatever he does have, he thinks he's using it to help people. That's a kind of strength.
If you don't think he's up to the power level of the job, then keep an eye on him. The reason I want to eventually yell at this guy is to keep himself from getting hurt.

[cattack]

Understood.
I won't start anything.
I don't know why, but I'm confident he's nothing to worry about.

[standalonehuman]

I'll trust your judgement on this. You're the one there and not me. Get you and him back here alive at the end of this, got it? I'll check in as I can.

Got Officers Hoboken and Tenmyouji with me. Looks like none of us were going to turn Retrospec down.

[cattack]

It makes sense.
I despise Retrospec, and every person who is part of them.
But if they need help, I can't just ignore them.
I imagine most police officers are the same.
Where are you headed?

[standalonehuman]

The Beach, which should be bitter-cold, but it's a little warmer today. Maybe I'm just thinking that because the sun's finally out again.

Any idea where the bus is going?

[cattack]

North.
Judging from the state of the bus... Very north.
They gave us books and video games to pass the time.
It's not helping.

On a related note, if I hear '99 bottles of beer on the wall' one more time, I may lose control of my actions.

[standalonehuman]

I doubt if you have enough non-natives to counter with 'Kaeru no uta ga.' THAT'S annoying.

Keep sending messages. I've got an odd feeling about this one. What happens if we don't lose range of Retrospec?

[cattack]

I don't know it myself.
Also, I don't sing.

Isn't that a good thing, if we don't?
We'll be able to keep in touch.

[standalonehuman]

It's a Japanese children's song about frog sounds. You can use your imagination.

It's a good thing, but it's also an interesting thing. Retrospec's range previously dropped out anywhere outside of the city. If we don't lose touch, we aren't going into an unreality twist, either.

[cattack]

Ugh.
"Unreality" again.
If that starts again, I will demand a definition of that from Retrospec.

Re: 1/25

[standalonehuman]

Damn. Okay, fair. Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe you need more evidence.

Hell of a thing, though. My own love life is complicated enough, none of us need to get saddled with a second one.

[standalonehuman]

Let me know if you get one.

But it's different, isn't it? Retrospec is extending outside of Recolle, and that might be a good thing.

[cattack]

I strongly disagree, sir.
I can't think of anything worse.

[standalonehuman]

I like it better than hiding behind a shield and waiting for some reality storm to, do something? I still can't tell what damage anything is doing.

If Retrospec can get more resources, and they aren't apparently constantly on the edge of losing everything, we might be able to start to get answers.

Re: 1/25

[thisloveisjustice]

[Tatsuo squints at that. Then pulls up Retrospec and pokes around on the app until he finds what he's looking for. Oh.]

I would definitely advise avoiding this, if at all possible. The transference is super weird.

Re: 1/25

[standalonehuman]

Would if I could. It just sort of...happened.

I cant keep following her around hoping she’ll come back again. Promise, the goal is to wish her the best and back off.

Re: 1/25

[thisloveisjustice]

Easier said than done though, huh?

[why do his friends keep having shit luck with their relationships?]

Re: 1/25

[standalonehuman]

Way easier.

I'll be okay. I don't want to get dramatic about this. She's wonderful, but it's better that Retrospec is out of her life.

[cattack]

I strongly disagree.
I have no trust that Retrospec's words can be trusted at all.

2/4 night

[cattack]

Officer, one of the members of my group- A teenager, I should add- is reporting monthly occurrences of DV at his home.
I know I'm not technically an officer myself yet, but I'm trying to get some information and encouraging him to file a proper police report.
What else should I do?
