OPTION 2
::At a cafe, you'll find a tall blonde chick with fox-like features and a sour attitude wearing glasses, typing on a laptop that looks like it was made from flesh and demonic souls. She seems fairly irritated, sipping on coffee.::

OPTION 3
::Near the Duel College or in Domino Park or Downtown, there's a biggish black cat with a mirror-like helmet and cape sitting or strolling about.::

*at the offices in Duel Academy, Sadame was dropping off notes of how the class went*

... What are you doing?

[triade_oscura]

Taking new inventory. ::Scribble scribble, looking you up and down.::

[memoryistime]

"Inventory"?

[triade_oscura]

What Wakahisa Noriko has, and thus, my boss can take as interest.

[memoryistime]

*... his eyes narrow*

I see.

I am going to have to ask you to leave, then. I feel that it is unfair if she is unable to be present during such an attempt.

[triade_oscura]

It's merely physical inventory. If she wishes to object, she has the ability to. Though there's a .1% Interest on objecting...

[memoryistime]

*he's giving a doubtful look, but then makes a sighing sound.*

I will not give heed to fraudulent claims, nor argue against them. However, I do feel that someone should supervise. So I shall be staying.

[triade_oscura]

Fine then. And what fraudulent claims?

[memoryistime]

I feel that much of the claims against her are fraudulent, and that her paranoid and exhausted state of mind allowed for her to be taken advantage of, despite any legal applications.

At the least, I'm rather certain that "being charged interest for sleeping" is highly illegal.

[triade_oscura]

Not according to the banks and courts in the 12 Dimensions, but that's what happens when you let Skull Servants run everything.

[memoryistime]

*Of course, Skull Servants only let him look even more disbelieving of any of it being legal.

Of course, Skull Servants are basically walking scam artists.*

Just continue your taking of inventory. Quickly.

*he puts away some notes he had taken*

[triade_oscura]

Unlike Skull Servants, I am not after scamming Ms. Wakahisa, just merely following the rules.

::She runs through the room, looking at Noriko's private papers and items.::

[memoryistime]

*casually takes the private papers and stores them away*

Then I expect you to follow the basic rules of privacy, as well as limitations necessary when the person in question is not present.

[triade_oscura]

Merely trying to make sure she isn't defrauding or holding out on us. Though, You seem awfully protective of her.

::Spins in Noriko's office chair slowly.::

[memoryistime]

I have a natural instinct to be protective of her. It is understandable considering my own position relative to her.

[triade_oscura]

And what would that be?

[memoryistime]

I serve her.

A position I am generally comfortable with.

[triade_oscura]

And why does that make you protective of her...?

[memoryistime]

... I am not certain. I suppose it helps I am somewhat fond of her, even if I become exasperated.

[triade_oscura]

So... you trust her?

[memoryistime]

I suppose I do to some extent... Why are you questioning this?

[triade_oscura]

Because the concept makes no sense to me.

[memoryistime]

... Is it because of your confusion on what "love" is, correct?

[triade_oscura]

... Yes. Pretty much that's my question. I don't really get this whole loving or trusting idea.

::Pokes one of Noriko's cheesecake boxes. Muttering something about fat whales.::

[memoryistime]

I suppose then that it is odd to you, that humans tend to take such concepts for granted.
