[It's night, at Redrock City. Here in this land of occassional fame and mostly capitalism, we find Mikoto, who's sleeping like a sensible human being. But this doesn't last long, as that would make for an unbelievably boring introduction.] * Mikoto sleeps with the fury of a thousand... sleepy things. [Yes, he does! And he wakes up when he hears someone clearing their throat.] [Session Start.] * Mikoto blinks his eyes open, trying to dart his vision around the room without actually sitting up. In case there's something like a knife or a tripwire or a large dog with pointy teeth waiting for him. [Mikoto sees the darkness! But he doesn't attack it. A figure drops from the ceiling to the floor.] * Mikoto lets out a slow breath, trying to calculate his options, and presuming the worst. Which is hard not to do when someone breaks into your room at night. [It's difficult to make out the figure, given the lighting, but a voice that's deffinately female reaches your ears. "Mikoto."] * Mikoto mms and stays right where he is, but hopes his vision adjusts soon. "Yes?"
Orders. You are to cease the current mission and devote yourself to this new one. * Mikoto breathes out again, closes his eyes, then sits up in bed and looks for the figure again. "I see. What's my next task?"
You are to accept a job from the Redrock Society of Explorers and Scientists.
The job involves retrieving a tablet that was stolen by bandits. You are to report any information you may find on this tablet to the capital, whenever possible. * Mikoto seems to mull this over for a bit. "Alright... which job?" He raises a hand to his chin and looks thoughtful for a moment at the explanation. "Redrock Society of Explorers and Scientists... got it." * Mikoto furrows his brow. "I hope it doesn't get too complicated. If they're offering a reward, there'll be a lot of other, er, 'job seekers' there too."
Likely.
You will work with them until the tablet is retrieved. * Mikoto nods thoughtfully. "Mm." He pauses for a moment, then asks: "No other special instructions? Just... go on this job, and report back everything about the tablet."
For the time being. * Mikoto sighs and nods, leaning back onto the bed a little bit. "Alright, I have my orders. I'll make my appearance at the Society tomorrow." He glances at the ceiling. "Probably need the 'play stupid' sort of cov... well, I won't bore you with the details." * Figure nods, though you can barely make it out. "Then I leave it in your hands." She moves swiftly, but incredibly silently, and is gone. * Mikoto mehs under his breath and crosses his arms behind his head, leaning back in bed. Not much more sleep tonight. Plans to be made. [And so they were. Session End.]
