Why can't you be reading something in Chinese instead, Togusa? He's learning Chinese for business, not Japanese for various weeb fantasies. But now that he can't really read the kanji, he's a little miffed. What seems similar just gives him a garbled, nonsensical version of the title.
Why is J.D. Salinger written in katakana instead of just simply Romanized is what he'd want to know if he could ask.
"But you have the authority to get the details legally," he reminds, and neither of his hands move for the envelop. He can't seem invested in the material, or he risks looking desperate.
At least Togusa's information checks out. Even hacking the department, Tim didn't find anything either. Which... is strange. He's not sure why he'd have the feeling of belonging to a group that doesn't exist. Like walking into football practice and finding out Recolle High School doesn't even have a team.
"It's okay. I--It's just something I was curious about is all. Heard the name around the university." His smile is an attempt to be jovial. "What are you going to do now? About Retrospec, I mean."
