[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.]

I'm not a human, if it helps. Just a simple old spirit.

[Technically, yes. He is an old spirit.]

And yourself, if I may ask?

[faceturnrevolution]

Togruta, though one guy called me an Oni so I guess I look sort of like them?

Being around humans certainly isn't a problem, though. I'm used to it. Lot more of them than there are of us.

[kikuichi]

It's quite possible. Oni typically have horns as their most noticeable trait, among other things.

[Any species can have muscles or certain skin colours like red. But having horns can narrow it down.]

I'm used to living among humans where I'm from. Being here is a different change of pace for me, with so many different non-humans around.

[faceturnrevolution]

Montrals DO sort of look like horns, I guess.

But I think it will do the humans good to be a minority for a while. They're much too used to assuming everyone would bend over backwards to do things their way.

[kikuichi]

Uhahaha! It would be a good change of pace for them. Knowing them, they'll adapt and find a way to thrive somehow.

It'll be fun to watch, either way.

[faceturnrevolution]

They always do. That’s probably why there’s so many of them.

[kikuichi]

Their numbers show how resourceful and stubborn they are.

[He did owe his existence to them, so he's maybe a little biased.]

Well, even if they're fewer in numbers here, you'll eventually meet some humans. I personally know a few of them in the Department.

[faceturnrevolution]

I’ve probably met some already. I can’t always tell.

[Since he’s blind.]

Anyway you said you were a…spirit?

[kikuichi]

That's right. Just one of many spirits, and pretty old as well!

[faceturnrevolution]

"Spirit" as in a spectral being of mystic power, or...?

[kikuichi]

Yes, you could say that. Although I do have a physical body, so a little more physical than spectral.

[faceturnrevolution]

I guess if I was ever going to run into a spirit, this would be the place.

[kikuichi]

There's no end to them around here. With so many different types, you'll never grow bored.

[For better or worse.]
