Re: 2/2

[standalonehuman]

I already know too much.

Well he hasn't been dating anybody recently, so there's no theft to be had here.

[megatechbody]

I'm hurt. Aren't allowed to peruse an opportunity laid before me?

Is he the type to read into things too much? I know the Izunya family is known for their political acumen but is there a reason he didn't follow the rest of the family tree?

[standalonehuman]

Sorry I just choked on my coffee laughing.

The opposite.

He couldn't be more completely the other side of Ardyn's coin. He's straight forward, restraint and subtlety are not things he has the patience for. But it gives him that similar open-book honesty that Ardyn has.

[megatechbody]

I hope it came out of your nose.

I noticed. He seems nice. Is he the type to sulk? I'd hate to kill morale by not calling back.

[standalonehuman]

Tentatively yes? If he is sulking, it's the kind where he gets snippy at people around him but won't tell them what is actually wrong. That's the one time the forwardness goes out the window, when he is actually hurt about something.

Worst case scenario, he goes back to yelling at Detective Gabranth.

[megatechbody]

Also noted. I'll try keeping to campfire rules. No promises.

[standalonehuman]

He's not THAT-

Counting.

Okay never mind, he is that much younger than you. I keep forgetting he's not older than me.

[megatechbody]

He's not that young, either. Don't buy into the hype, Togusa.

[standalonehuman]

Hype's not what you're going for?

I'll tell you something real, if it won't spoil the game.

[megatechbody]

Oh hush.

Sure. I have to admit I've been curious.

[standalonehuman]

Last month. Most of us had these temporary abilities, with monsters attacking the city. For whatever reason, Fynn slips through the cracks. People are shooting electricity or flying, I was telekinetic for a month. Fynn? Not a thing. Just a guy with a gun, and he went right in to the convention center to save people.

One of those injuries he's sporting this month was taking a shot for me. Even though the power Retrospec gave me meant I didn't need him to. He just did it automatically.

[megatechbody]

[Mariko bites her lip a little in thought before sending a message in the other conversation she's having.]

He sounds like someone born to help.
Glad he's on the force with you, vested interest aside.

[standalonehuman]

Believe me, I am too.

But, you know? I've never asked Ardyn how he feels about losing both me and Fynn to the enforcement side of the law. Got to be a kick in the shorts.

[megatechbody]

Something something, both sides working together. He probably blames me for losing you anyway.

[standalonehuman]

I've always considered you simply the last nail in the coffin, not the major force. I wasn't sticking around in that field.

Just. Too much ambiguity.
