o32 Voice | (Backdated to) 8-01, Mid-day

[Since Genesis has been feeling very cheery, he's in the mood to talk to the city. Usually, he'd be a bearer of news as part of the Watch or a mouthpiece for recruitment. But today, he's in the mood to talk about something else.]

Did you ever have a feeling-- and impulse, more like, to do something dramatic? Sweep someone off their feet, or run off on an adventure? I didn't think I'd feel such a thing, but perhaps it's about time to revel in a little happiness. Do something beyond the fighting, the training, and the daily hubbub.

What I mean is...

Yako Katsuragi, would you like to go flying with me this afternoon?

[He ends his feed with a great big grin.

Oh, and if you feel like assaulting him in person or something, he'll be a sitting duck at the agency's reception area.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I have enjoyed the conversation as well. It is a shame so many people shy away from the topic.

Ahh, I see. I have done similar work. [She doesn't elaborate because there's not need to bring attention to the fact that she is kind of the opposite of the police. Bodyguarding though, that's part of her schtick back home.]

So you are the law around here?

[His present work also means that Genesis never has to admit that he was the polar opposite of what he is now in Death City. No one needs to know any of that.]

Yes, you can say that. The Watch mainly helps the local police force with its duties. It also helps take charge when the city is under attack.

Mmm, it sounds very [there is the barest of pauses] organized. [She wasn't really going to say it sounded boring. Maybe. Ok maybe a little. Bianchi tends to enjoy working on the fly. But reliable people can also be handy.]

It's only natural for an organization built by a soldier and run by many who once were soldiers, myself included. After all, order is the best defense against the chaos of war.

Hmm. [That's definitely not agreement. Bianchi is an assassin, she prefers going in and taking out one person to make an organization crumble. She kind of is chaos. Chaos on a smaller scale can completely mitigate chaos on a large one when done right. Of course it can also make the chaos exponentially worse when done wrong.] I suppose we do things we are familiar with.

[If he knew, Genesis would argue that employing an assassin is also part of an orderly attack. It's all about tactics and making sure everyone follows a set plan rather than ambushing the enemy willy-nilly. That's why they actually also have spies and trained assassins in the Watch and Agency.]

Indeed. I thought sometimes about pursuing something different just for fun, but since we're caught in a time of war, this city could use all the fighters it can have in the right jobs.

[Bianchi is not good at set plans. She does jobs like she lives life. At her whim and by her instincts.]

I have taken the conversation away from your act of romantic abandon, my apologies. War is such a dreary subject and when you are in one it seems to be all that is spoken about.

[He laughs.]

Well then, we shouldn't talk about it any longer. Why talk about that when we can speak of something more pleasing? I understand you're new, but are you interested in meeting people, Bianchi?

[Don't think she hasn't noticed that is also not about your date.]

I am not opposed to meeting people. In fact, I have met many people in the last few days. Did you have particular people in mind?

[Aww. Genesis is probably just a little disappointed that she isn't the type to flirt back, but that's fine.]

No, not really. I've just been in very good spirits lately, so I'm raring to go get to know as many people as I can. And spend more time with the people I already know... Yako being one of them.

[Who said she wasn't teasing?]

Ahh, you wish to meet with me? I wouldn't want to interfere with your romantic rendezvous.

Well, not right now. And to tell you the truth, it isn't romantic. I try to make it sound like it, but the truth is that it is simply something like a favor I owed her from helping me with an injury during a previous siege on the city.

How very disappointing. [Her expression is a soft mou of disappointment. It's always much more fun if someone is truly trying to woo a woman.]

[He laughs.]

Well, if it's any consolation, I still am very available and in a mood to meet other girls.

Ahh, but will girls be in the mood to meet you? [She looks amused. And if he expects her to just help him along he'll be disappointed. A man should work for things. ]

That's where a good introduction always comes in. The best people to spend time with never come easy.

And what is your introduction?

I'm Genesis Rhapsodos, liaison to the Kuzunoha Detective Agency and Death City's Office for General Security, and Zone Leader for Outer Residential District II. But for a lovely lady, I could simply be your soldier for the night, to heed your every command.

Mmm seems a little dangerous unless you're certain the woman will not take advantage. Imagine all the things she might command.

[He laughs.]

To be honest, I'm quite daring enough to do just about anything. Of course, as long as it just concerns the both of us and not the rest of the world.

That sounds like a challenge to me.

Is that a challenge you'd like to take up?

I see caution is not in your nature. If you would like to obey me for a night, I'm sure we could make it interesting.

You can say I like playing with fire. [He laughs.]

So, is that an invitation? Do I get to meet the lovely Bianchi in person?

How very appropriate.

I am busy this evening but perhaps we can schedule a night. Tell me, how do you feel about home cooked meals?
