[LOCKED TO DEPARTMENT OF ENMA] Voice; UN: jsarchivist

[The voice that speaks is English, posh, and sounds utterly exhausted and done with everything at the moment. Still a pleasant voice to listen to though. Could read a phone book and make it sound nice.]

I have, against all better judgment, been tasked with welcoming the new members to the Department of Enma.

Welcome. [It sounds less like an actual welcome and more "this is scripted and I am required to say the word 'welcome' somewhere in this."] This faction is for city departments with most of you being funneled directly into the law enforcement branch whether you like it or not. There is, unfortunately, no direct way to transfer out of this department until you have been part of the system for several weeks and even then it is not a guarantee. And that alone is a frustrating process. However, there are other departments within this building that you can find work in, such as the legal department if that is more your particular specialty.

The department is given the great burden of trying to keep order in the City amongst the other factions. It's a futile effort given the amount of problems that arise, but nonetheless you will be expected to assist in times of need. If you find the Department does not pay enough for your living expenses, I've been told you are welcome to get a second job. There is also provided assigned living quarters that are borderline adequate that you are still paying for yourself.

My name is Jonathan Sims. I work in the records and archives department. I will not answer your questions, however, superior officer Lieutenant Julieta Juris will be more than happy to answer any questions anyone has. She is experienced and has been here for some time now. I can provide directions and her office hours if new recruits need.

[Is he throwing Julieta under the bus?

Maybe so. Maybe next time don't voluntell him to do this after you argue with him over whether or not being dead is an “excuse” to “give up” working in a department he hates from the outset and just accept his transfer request the first time.]


We are currently investigating a kidnapping that happened at the most recent festival. We have some leads as to the whereabouts, but are still looking into some details.

I suppose that's everything. Good luck. Again, I will not answer your questions, but please feel free to direct all inquiries to Superior Officer Lieutenant Julieta Juris.


[ooc; Open to all Enma folks, threadjack, go wild!]

I see...

[Okay, there's a few things in there that sound like something he could do, and it doesn't involve just being a policeman. Good. If he gets rejected, maybe this won't be so bad.]

I was actually wondering if you needed someone to tidy up the place! You know, like a housekeeper of sorts.

[ She was ready to have to argue about it. His suggestion is actually a pretty good one and not something she would have expected. Where else is she going to find someone so willing to clean up around here? Of course she'll put him to work. ]

Actually yes, you can do that. In addition you would have the option to clean up crime scenes for a significant bonus.

[Thoma's face brightens when she says yes. Here he thought he was going to have to try to bargain for it, and she said yes right away!]

I'm humbled you've accepted my proposal. I was actually a little worried that you were going to say no.

[He'll make the place so clean she won't even recognize it.]

I may take you up on the crime scenes too. I can imagine that requires a certain level of meticulousness that you can't find anywhere.

[But Thoma has that level. He won't let you down, ma'am.]

I'm glad to hear it. That kind of initiative should be rewarded.

[ She can definitely use more subordinates who aren't actively trying to make her job harder. ]

We'll have supplies ready for you tomorrow. If there's anything extra you need you can submit a request.

[Thoma claps his hands together, bowing. Good, he's glad that's settled.]

Thank you so much again, ma'am. I'll do my best to meet or exceed your expectations!

[And that's all he really wanted!]

I'll leave you to your business now, I really appreciate your time.
