...hm.

[He frowns thoughtfully at that, and sets the papers on his desk further aside.]

Not right off the top of my head, but then I don't handle everyone's vehicles. Let me think on it, but-- something suspicious about one?

... The other night, there was a black, soft-topped car shooting the bell tower in Westside. They were serious about it, too. We're talking some big guns. Afterward, the car raced off toward Middleton, which led me to believe it wasn't a Xian Le family car. I just wanted to be sure it wasn't one of ours, either.
doublesmall: (i get a little bit genghis khan)

Westside, huh...

[Honestly, he doesn't sound all that concerned about it at first, it's not his own side of town-- but he hums quietly as he considers.]

Well, it's Xie Lian's problem if they get any damage over there. I don't know of any that stand out, though, it's not an uncommon kind of car. [Another brief pause, and:] We're testing out something new, but I sure as hell didn't tell them to take anything into enemy territory and risk starting trouble.

If you hear anything else about that, let me know-- no matter who it was, if anyone over there assumes it was us, we might have more issues.
decryptic: (shut me up)

[personal profile] decryptic 2020-01-30 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
I can't see them assuming anything else. It's not like anyone from Xian Le would be destroying Xian Le territory.

[ And it's something 9S assumed as well. He didn't want to, but it makes logical sense.

If Chuuya is bringing up "something new" in this context, then 9S assumes he's referring to some kind of gun, or car, or gun-car. It might be hypocritical, considering his job here, but the idea of humans trying to find new ways to kill each other leaves him deeply uneasy. He doesn't understand where their urge to destroy themselves comes from. ]

Whoever it was, I hope they'll be more careful from now on. There were kids in the tower only seconds before the car started shooting it up.
doublesmall: (where are we?)

[personal profile] doublesmall 2020-01-30 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
With any luck, not too many on their side saw what you did.

[Like, it'll be hard to ignore any damage, but... well, there's that and then there's being an eyewitness to what actually caused it.

His eyes narrow further as 9S continues, though, his brow furrowing more, and he gives his head a shake.]

-if that really was anyone on our end, I'll pull them out of action if I find out who.

[That's the kind of reputation they don't need, for one. Chuuya likes to think he's not entirely heartless, though-- people with their lifestyle should know what to expect, but there are ways to try to minimize civilian damages.]
decryptic: (can you imagine it)

[personal profile] decryptic 2020-01-30 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's really all 9S can ask for. He doesn't think Chuuya would target children intentionally, but it was something he had to be sure of. He nods, satisfied for now. ]

Great. Thank you, sir.

[ He pauses. ]

One more thing. I heard in Middleton that there've been people going missing. Mostly in Westside, I think. [ Otherwise, a person from Xian Le probably wouldn't be trying to prod 9S about what's been happening in Eastside. ] Do you know if there's been anything like that happening on our side of town?
doublesmall: (and the scene slips away)

[personal profile] doublesmall 2020-02-01 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Over here...? No. But I heard one of ours apparently went missing outside of our territory, if nobody brought that up.

[His eyes narrow at the thought, there, one hand reflexively clenching. He's yet to hear anything else about it, and it's been weighing on his mind since it was mentioned.]

We don't know right now if it's an isolated incident, but I'd be surprised if it were.
decryptic: (have we been fighting in vain)

[personal profile] decryptic 2020-02-02 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ So either people from Xian Le and Mori are wantonly kidnapping each other or there's some kind of third party involved... ]

... Alright. I'll let you know if I hear anything else on that front, and with luck, we'll have our answers soon. All of this can't be good for the climate in town.

[ He straightens into an almost-salute. ]

That's about everything I wanted to see you about, sir.

[ And he'll stand there until he gets a dismissal! ]
doublesmall: (to the evenness i fake)

[personal profile] doublesmall 2020-02-02 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
No, it really can't. If we don't get a handle on what's happening here, it's going to become a problem.

[Not that he would mind going up against the Xian Le properly now, without the support they used to have... but it's easier on everyone right now to avoid that. There's no sense in starting that level of trouble without a damn good reason.]

Thanks, Nines. You can go-- just let me know if anything else comes up.
