[Rudolph had been keeping to the bookshops, the remains of the main library, the more intact branches and what's left of museums since the Onis disappeared, often accompanied by a certain young man, pouring over what they can find, jotting notes and obviously discussing Important Things.

After a while, Rudolph Van Richten can be seen on the phones, while Hiroshi can be seen in the background examining the spines of books]

Ah, Good Afternoon - this is Dr. Van Richten, could you kindly do Hiroshi and myself a favor? We were going over the libraries and museums of Sirocco and found many of them very lacking in information about the various beasts we've seen.

What I would like is that those who do remember these monsters - could you be so kind as to come to the 2nd Library Branch and consent to an interview?

[action]

[You're here for the interview. Van Richten can be seen sitting at one of the larger tables with pen and paper ready. Several books are on the table. Hiroshi is nearby with a few books open, going from one to another, and occasionally can be seen furiously scribbling something down - occasionally pausing to stare at something in disbelief before continuing on.

Do you speak to the Doctor, or the Student?]

((ooc: for the record. Rudolph has 1% on lockpick, 1% on Draconic language, 1% on hide-in-shadows, 1% on detecting traps, and 1% on the Ezra faith, so 6% total regain.

State in the subject line if you want to talk with Hiroshi or Rudolph as this is a joint post))

...I wouldn't call him a monster, but I've got a friend who isn't human that we found in one of the ruins.

That would be no problem for me. What time should I come?

Very well, then. You can expect me in about twenty minutes.

[And Ky arrives in about eighteen minutes.]

It works as well as anything. Part of this is trying to see if any of the creatures that have shown up can be recognized, so we might as well have the friendly ones in with all the others. Would you be able to bring him in?

Yeah, sure. 2nd library, right? I'll bring him over.

Wish I could help, doc, but all I've seen so far are those those oni morphs, and there's plenty of data on those things already...
all_onis_are_true: (Sorry about that.)

Thanks. We appreciate the assistance.

*He's definitely there when Yuta shows up, reading through some texts. Very, very carefully.*

Hello again, Yuta. Was he willing to come?
youngestboxer: (Kupo!)

Re: [Video]

[personal profile] youngestboxer 2012-03-07 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he was.

[He looks behind him, waiting for his friend to catch up. Hey Hiroshi, have a moogle waving at you.]

Kupo!

He's, ah...

*Adorable.*

Friendly, at least. You say he was in the ruins somewhere?
youngestboxer: (Two years...)

Re: [Video]

[personal profile] youngestboxer 2012-03-07 07:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. He had a friend with him, but it was one of the buildings with those blue monsters in it, so...

[...]

We could only get Kupo here out.

[personal profile] all_onis_are_true 2012-03-07 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
I see...

...

I'll take a few notes, at least. Have you been able to observe much about him yourself?
youngestboxer: (You say something Wansuke?)

Re: [Video]

[personal profile] youngestboxer 2012-03-07 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
He can fly a little and the only word he can say is "kupo". He can understand us, though.
all_onis_are_true: (Cool calm and collected)

Re: [Video]

[personal profile] all_onis_are_true 2012-03-07 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Obviously intelligent, at least, even if it cannot communicate with us.

*He takes notes, and pulls out a camera for a quick picture.*

Anything else you can tell me?
youngestboxer: (This is giving me a headache...)

[Kupo blinks with confusion at the picture taking.]

Not off the top of my head.

[Ky accepts Rudolph's hand.]

Of course. If this saves even one life, it will be worthwhile.

On my last expedition, prior to the Oni, I saw two kinds of creatures. The first kind was two species -- crabs and sharks -- both of which seemed to be made of some glowing green material. One of the other people in the group identified it as ectoplasm.
ridethelightning: (Huh?)

[personal profile] ridethelightning 2012-03-07 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...To be honest, it's a little difficult to tell without color. The first two things I noticed about it were that it was green and that it gave off its own light.

The name of the youth who recognized it was Danny. He had white hair and green eyes, and could use the same ectoplasm as a means of attack. He would be the person to seek out if you wish to learn more about it.
