[tailsofwoe]

Where: Dorms
What: just friendly people being good neighbors
Warnings: N/A

[ Knock knock, open up, there is some number of Anzens at your door.

A pretty lady in sky blue smiles and waves. ]

Good evening. Hopefully this isn't a bad time? Enough time has passed that we figured it was a good idea to check in and make proper introductions.

You'll have to forgive the lack of housewarming gift. We're a bit shorthanded at the moment, which I'm sure you can relate to.

[ From behind her peers a perfectly average guy with tousled hair dressed in sky blue slacks. He gives a friendly wave! ]

We did think about it, though.

[ GIVE BROWNIE POINTS ]

[ Her eyes first travel to Nei's katana, then to her hair, and then some brief flicker of recognition seems to pass over her eyes. ]

We have every intention of respecting your privacy, I assure you.

[praiseful]

[ ...?! ]

What was that? The look you gave me.

[tailsofwoe]

Hm? Nothing important. I heard the rumors of someone in your class who is reliable in a pinch, and I finally put a face to the description, that's all.

1/2

[praiseful]

[ ❗ ]

[praiseful]

[ congratulations for saying Exactly The Right Things!! Nei seems only too pleased to hear this, and whatever threatening aura she was putting out when she answered the door has gone completely, only for cheerful pride to take its place. ]

Oh, is that so?! Well, I'm not surprised there are such rumors about me! They're true, by the way - I am reliable in a pinch!

[tailsofwoe]

[ So easy, she thinks... Though she can't deny that the energy is a bit endearing. ]

It's quite reassuring to have someone like you around. Fighting monsters is nothing new to you, I take it?

[praiseful]

[ Definitely so easy. Please continue to think of it as endearing for now... ]

That's right! In fact, I'm a professional where I come from, and the very top when it comes to my colleagues and I!

[tailsofwoe]

How impressive. I'd be very interested to hear more about this profession of yours.

[praiseful]

We hunt beasts that eat humans - think of them like undead creatures. That's all you really need to know.

[ Perhaps it doesn't matter that it's all done clandestinely, here, but if they're trying to be secretive about things like their true names, then she'll continue to be secretive about this, too. ]

[tailsofwoe]

Fair enough. It sounds like a field an ordinary human has no business dipping their toes in.

[praiseful]

Anyone can be a Maga Killer if they train very hard! But they would have a long way to go before getting to my level. All to say, you can rely on me!

[tailsofwoe]

Then you don't mind if I call upon you in times of trouble?

[praiseful]

Of course! You absolutely can!

What's your name, Miss?

[tailsofwoe]

Foxglove. And yourself?

[praiseful]

[ Whoa...? Foxglove is a really cool pseudonym, actually. ]

Mine is Rin! And you're with the class...

[ Hm, she hasn't committed all the other class names to memory yet. ]

[tailsofwoe]

Mm, still in the process of learning who's who? We're Anzen.

[praiseful]

Alright, then, Ms Foxglove of Anzen! What's your curse?

[ just. asking that outright..! ]
