If you really want romance, he’s a tough nut to crack

*Haruka blinked a few times, eyes wide and his face almost immediately giving him away*
Haruka POV: ffffffff**k *the Tamashī gave the man a closed eyed smile and a laugh, deciding to play dumb*
Haruka: *acting oblivious* G-Gomen'nasai, eh, n-nandesuka? Nani o itte iru no ka wakarimasen, sensei ["I'm sorry, what? I don't understand anything you are saying, sir"] *Haruka bowed an apology and began to close the door* Yoiichinichiwo osugoshi kudasai, sensei! ["Have a nice day, sir!"] *he shut the door in the man's face, locking it and immediately running to find his master* Hayato-San! there's a guy at the door here to investigate you! *Hayato poked his head out from his study, his green eyes staring at the japanese spirit quizzingly*
Hayato: *curiously* investigate me? what do you mean by that? *he grabbed his exorcism staff and pulled on his outer robe before unlocking the door and opening it* Hello? may I help you?

I was called here for otherworldly activity. Do you know anything about this?

Not interrupting your roleplay, just asking a question. When are we gonna continue our roleplay here?

…did I forget I’m so sorry gimme a sec)

It's fine.

Got it

Hayato: ;-; . . . riiiiiiight, um, yes Sir, I do know about 'otherworldly activity'. I'm an exorcist, *his voice dropped to a mutter* Sore wa chottoshita watashi no shigotodesu (it's kinda my job to)

Ah. I see. Do you mean any harm in doing your job of exorcism?

Hayato: ō-ô no?

Have any lives been harmed?

*Hayato stiffened, a sheepish and guilty expression coming across his face*
Hayato: *hesitantly* whose lives are we talking about exactly?

Any lives

(Using Soapy in first person, starting as anthro)
*I was his partner (as an agent, not romantic), and we were on this mission together. I was certainly confused about the "otherworldly activity" at first, but when I saw the location, I instantly understood. I turned toward him and said* "Are you... sure this is safe? I'm not saying that it's not safe here, but the building doesn't look very structurally stable, and I don't wanna become an Umbreon pancake.

Well, we have to find this individual, don’t we? *Cobra started maneuvering through the rubble*

"Indeed we do." *I pull a set of brass knuckles out of my pocket and put it on my paws to protect myself and Cobra if necessary*

*he moves to a more open part of the building* hello

*I follow Cobra, and I grab my pistol and fire a blank round to see if anything appears*

Woah, careful

"Don't worry, Cobra, it's a blank mag."

Still, you might scare them away

"That's fair." *I put my pistol back in its holster*

Well, we gotta be careful

"We sure do. Let's get back to the hunt."

*creeps through the debris*

*I put on a pair of night vision goggles*

*creeping*

*Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I see a humanoid figure floating within my goggles, then a slimy sensation in my black facial fur alongside a chill down my spine as the figure disappears*

Did you see something?

"I think I found the paranormal activity we're looking for." *I reach up and take my goggles off, then I wipe my paw on the spot on my muzzle with the slimy sensation, finding a glob of ectoplasm there* "Yup, I definitely found the paranormal activity we're looking for."

Ugh, well, rookie, what do you suggest?

"My PKE meter. It has a long range but a short battery life, which is why I waited to use it."

And how will it work against this slime creature?

"It'll detect the presence of the creature so that we can use our other weapons against it."

Okay, let’s try it

X: h u h

Are you the one who’s been causing otherworldly activity?

X: probably

Well, I’m gonna have to take you in for questioning, if you’ll kindly follow me please, sir

X: okay

*he walks away, gesturing for him to follow him*

X: *hovers towards him*

*when they get to his car he opens the door to let him in*

*driving in silence*

(Like cobra bubbles in lilo and stitch)

X: Hey Cobra

*sighs*

X: *hovers in*

*gestures for him to sit down*

X: *sit*

X: X

Man: you can call me Lockhart. Are you the person who has been causing otherworldly activity in the area?

X: probably

Lockhart: yes or no

X: no idea what you mean by Otherworldly activity

*Cobra sighs*

X: so you wanna explain

I can’t because I wasn’t there, X.

X: neither was I

*sighs and rubs his temple*

X: *leans back* so what else you want

We want to know who cause otherworldly activity
