[threateningly]

[Sannan is dressed fairly formally, in Western clothes with two swords at his hip, so he looks sort of... official. Which might make this come off as way more passive-aggressive or official than is entirely intended. I mean, it's intended to be passive-aggressive, considering he is how he is, but he'll say the following with an utterly pleasant, head-tipped, eyes somewhat closed smile.]

First, let me introduce myself. My name is Sannan Keisuke, a recent arrival. I have been given the privilege [the way he says privilege tho] of joining the ranks of the Department of the Enma. I'm quite unfamiliar with this sort of technology, so forgive me if I do something incorrectly.

[He shifts slightly.] To the point then. I, and several of my fellow new arrivals, have been experiencing difficulty acquiring information about certain aspects of our duties. It must also be noted that fellow Lost Souls who shall remain nameless, but who report to other factions, have been greeted with information about rules, regulations, leadership, and even dress codes.

One wonders, then, if there are any such requirements for our faction. This is merely a personal inquiry, as I have little desire to pin any one person to responsibility they do not wish to hold. Therefore, if someone with more tenure and experience could see fit to enumerate upon such things for those of us newly arrived, I will gladly facilitate dissemination of such information to fellow newcomers, and alleviate any burden upon those already far busier than myself.

Thank you for your time, and for your efforts which have preceded our arrival. We will all assuredly do our utmost to do honor to the tasks set before us. [Thinking back. To arrival. And sharks.] No matter how interesting they may be.

[And he parts that whole thing with a formal bow.]

They are very interesting, aren't they?

[As interesting as trying to save as many people as possible while the city nearly collapses under a bloody deluge??]

Keisuke-san, it's wonderful to have someone as detail-oriented as you join the department. You may call me Shinobu.

[threateningly]

Exceedingly, or at least quite different from what I have personally experienced. Then again, I say that based largely on hearsay.

[He heard some things. They were not great things. He's vaguely glad he missed out on the cursed whatever.]

Thank you for the greeting, Shinobu. I hope I haven't stepped on any toes. I believed timeliness might help some of us become more quickly oriented and therefore more swiftly useful.

[wingclip]

Not at all. I'd say the more assistance we receive from new members the better. As it is our current standing is stretched quite thin with the recent recovery of the Enma himself. Hopefully we'll be hearing from him again...

[Buuut she's not counting on it just yet.]

That being said, there is always room for more dependable officers, especially when so much of the general populace relies on us for protection.

[At least that was their role during the curse!]

[threateningly]

Understandably, if we're to help and to help maintain order, it'll be a situation where every man who may and can should assist. I'm prepared for that, and by all accounts eager to contribute.

[He still thinks that contract thing is a good deal, after all. Hell was already in his future, so hell giving something back? Absolutely awesome.]

I'll consult with the Captain or an Inspector perhaps, and see about being assigned or taking on something like a patrol or area. Is that how things are done here?

[wingclip]

For the most part yes, although the department as a whole tends to work together when especially large events are taking place. You might suddenly find that someone more suited for administrative work rescuing residents from some unprecedented disaster!

But if I'm being honest... I think the continued efforts to keep the peace are important, and more vital than ever. I do believe justice and peace can exist in a place like this.

[She says that last word with only a small hint of contempt.]

If you ever need assistance out on the field, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

[threateningly]

I see. Versatility is good to have, then. I'll keep that in mind. Fortunately, I shouldn't have any trouble, whether my duties are clerical or more public-oriented. I would hope for something that doesn't have me languishing all day long, but that's a wish, not a necessity. Peacekeeping and seeing to helping others will be a pleasant change from my recent prior situation.

[He smiles.]

I'll lean on your generosity as I find my footing. You have my thanks.
