[Whether one knows him for a while, saw his profile on EMBER recently, or at the just as recent buffet gathering with the icebreaker, there's plenty of chances for anyone in the Department to see Norimune around. If they haven't, Norimune simply create another opportunity for that.]

Hello again, everyone. This is Inspector Ichimonji Norimune, but just Norimune is fine.

[Standard introduction, and establishing his preferences for those who didn't know.]

I'm here to extend my offer to anyone who wants training. Whether it's to keep yourself sharp or starting to learn, I welcome any fighting styles and skill levels to join me in the training hall. I'm a simple swordsman, but this old man may offer some insight and challenge. Or if I don't, it's still good to keep training. You don't have to wait and talk to me over that EMBER application for this, everyone in the Department is free to approach me for training.

[Some of the more established Department members may notice Norimune is often in the training hall before, so it's not entirely a strange idea.]

Oh, if you can't fight and feel left out? I'm always up for a chat at any other time, uhahaha!

[And he's already back in silly grandpa mode.]

(OOC: Check permissions if your character is likely to recognise his name. Training can be assumed off-screen or threaded it out, just let me know. )

[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.

I talked to some of the shops.

Got some of them to agree to get everyone some clean clothes if the rain messed everything up. It's not much but looks are important or something.


- - -

ooc:
  • hizen used his rank to get a clothes drive/charity going on for the city. handwaving the logistics here but assume everyone gets at least one set of nice clothes from a shop of their choice.
  • i really just wanted an excuse for everyone to get a nice yukata for the summer so assume there are definitely some kimono shops with summer deals, too. ( ◡‿◡ *)
  • pretend there's a sign or something at participating locations. it's all courtesy of shuten because hizen hates being perceived.
  • gallery for traditonal masc. yukata designs because guys are boring

[Those within the Enma faction may have seen Norimune around, either in passing or interacted with him before in some way. Unless pure chance keep someone from seeing him. Regardless, he opted to go for a video instead of texting this time. Less chance of him opening up the kaomoji menu.

... It doesn't mean he won't switch over to text for them. In any case, he's sitting down somewhere at Kaigo no Bou, smiling right at the camera.

Greetings, my colleagues. As much as I love pleasantries, I'll get right down to it.

As you're all aware, we're tasked with lifeguard duty for the beach party. As such, there's one thing we all need to know.

[Although he's smiling, the look in his eyes are serious.]

Who among us can swim?

[He let the question hang in the air for a moment.]

Be frank, as it's fine if you can't or haven't learn yet. Or if you do, how confident are you in rescuing someone from the waters?

The sooner we all know, the easier it would be to start planning and make adjustments.

The upcoming Σ(*ノ´>ω<。`)ノ BEACH PARTY!! ヽ(´ω`○)ノ.+゚*。:゚+ is a manner of social gathering I am not familiar with.

My attempts to research have led to such a wide range of activities and manners of dress1 that I'm unsure what to expect or how to prepare.


So,

What are my fellow Lost Souls wearing to this affair-?
Can one arrive over-dressed to such an occasion-?2

Insight would be greatly appreciated.

1Researching "beach fashion" largely results om what I can charitably describe as wet lingerie.3
2It seems coming under dressed is nearly impossible.
3Not that I'm complaining.

(ノ^ヮ^)ノ*:・゚✧

hello everyone! it's been quite a last few months, hasn't it?
(〃 ̄︶ ̄)人( ̄︶ ̄〃)


first of all i want to thank, deeply, everyone who helped with the apology tour. your efforts have helped the Alliance get back on its feet, and things are finally back in a positive direction.

because of your efforts, i've been able to get the other faction leaders to agree to a sort of make-up event for how the Night Parade ended.

are you ready for this?!

Σ(*ノ´>ω<。`)ノ BEACH PARTY!! ヽ(´ω`○)ノ.+゚*。:゚+

i organized a work project with several remaining members of the River Kappa Tribe, and while things are uh.

tense.

in the Underground, we've managed to build an amazing Indoor Beach facility in the derelict concert hall that was near Konoha ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ

stay tuned for news from each faction leader on the kind of activities to expect!


Yes, even The Enma. Because I understand his primary desire is keeping face, isn't it?

ლ(*꒪ヮ꒪*)ლ
ganbate everyone! let's do out best and have fun!


[[ooc: the beach party idea is courtesy of Vandal and will be a major part of the upcoming Event! please look forward to it!]]
