For all that's true, for all you do

[ A note goes up on the fridge shortly after Chie signs the chicken petition on Monday: ]



[ Come 6 pm, she has prepared some coffee and tea so people can have something to drink while watching the shenanigans that will happen, as well as hot sauce as penalty for refusing a dare. So come here and have fun, y'all. ]

[Oh, you'd better believe he's here for this.

He may be an old man, but Cabanela can be hip when he wants to be!]

[nankurunaisa]

Cabenela-san! Truth or dare?

[It'd be kind of sad if no one let the old man play, right~?]

[perpend]

[Let the old man play, this'll be fun, and he can certainly be cool.]

Truth.

[nankurunaisa]

[Hibiki's not going easy on anyone just because they're an old man. She's here to play.]

So, is there a wife back home? Or do you have a girlfriend? A special someone, maybe?

[perpend]

[Hey, maaaan.

Fair's fair.]

No wife; I'm swingin' single!

[NO, CABANELA. DON'T WORD IT LIKE THAT]

[nankurunaisa]

Swingin'? What's that mean?

[She's kind of surprised, though.]

Really? You kinda look like the dad type. I was so sure you had kids, too.

[perpend]

Unfortunately not.

[Let's not answer that first question.

He does act like a dad, though.]

There is a girl who means a lot to me back home, though. I guess you could call me a father-figure for her. He name's Lynne.

[nankurunaisa]

Lynne...that's a pretty name! What's she...

[What's she like. That's what Hibiki wants to ask, but she stops herself.]

Is it okay to ask somethin' like that? I mean, if you don't want me to ask about people outside of here, I can stop.

[perpend]

Of course it's okay. I don't mind at all.

[He actually loves talking about Lynne, so]

She's a veeeeeery determined girl, likes to try and solve cases all by herself, even though she's just joined the force. I first met her when she was very small-- she's wanted to be a police officer for most of her life.

[god yes

WE'RE ALL GOING TO HAVE FUN]

So, are you thinking truth are dare, then?

[perpend]

[The old men can have fun, too, baby!]

Leeet's go with dare.

[oftheland]

Hmmm... I dare you to do your best impression of the last criminal you remember tracking down before you got here, then.

[perpend]

[Hmmmm.

Well, there had been that certain blue-skinned assassin whose movements Cabanela had been keeping an eye on.

An in a ridiculous accent, let's be real it's probably a 1920s mobster voice, he says:]

"Not so fast, sister! They call me 'Nearsighted Jeego', but I've never let me prey escape."

[oftheland]

[...hahahaha that's good, maybe he should feel vaguely offended on some level but no]

...Nearsighted, though? That's really one unfortunate nickname. It could at least be catchy...

[perpend]

I wish I knew how he got such a nickname, all I know is that he wears a pair of thick glasses.

It makes him easy to track down, at least.

[The guy is one step away from calling himself "four-eyes", and still manages to be an assassin.]

[oftheland]

That seems like a pretty bad trait in an assassin, though, you'd think. Or any sort of career criminal, really...

[perpend]

I reeeally don't know how competent he actually is, I wasn't given much information on that.

Somehow, I doubt he's much of a threat, though. Just one of those "we're hiring anyone" gigs, I imagine.

[oftheland]

That seems like a poor way to run things, but I guess if you're on a budget, you'll take any assassin you can get.

[...or if you're a sentimental loser.]

[perpend]

[Who knows with that country, really.]

It must be something like that, anyway. I honestly don't know what else it could be.

[oftheland]

I guess it could be nepotism. That's always a possibility, isn't it?

[perpend]

Nepotism, huh?

[....that's a good point, actually.]

It wouldn't surprise me if he was the nephew of the leader of that country at all.

[oftheland]

It seems like a dangerous line of work to let your nephew get into, but some kids want all the glory.

And then it goes poorly because they have bad eyesight in a job that probably requires it to be good.

[perpend]

He was supposed to show up near where I last remember being, so...

Well. Take that as you will, I'm noooot sure what happened to him.

[oftheland]

Ah. Well, I guess it's not too much of a shame if he encountered some sort of unfortunate accident, then, is it.

[perpend]

It would be a bit of bad luck, wouldn't it?

Though, his country is a little... strange, anyway.
