[And once again, it is noon on meeting day in Patrol headquarters. There's a big open meeting room space, tables in the middle, a projector on the ceiling, computers in the walls. It is shiny, high-tech, clean, and full of a lot more people than last time. Yuan is already here before anyone else arrives, getting papers laid out and shuffled around. He seems tense, but satisfied. Things are finally coming together.]

((ooc: Please wait to tag until sections are up, thanks! Actually, go ahead and tag away in each section as it goes up. Threadjack lots! We're all in the same room, so jump in wherever you want.))

[Yes, what's with the children? Have a mildly flat look, Weenie.]

[pumpkinbutt]

[ THIS ONE RIGHT BACK. WHACHU LOOKIN' AT MISTER ]

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

[YOU, HE'S LOOKING AT YOU.] Aren't you a little young to be here?

[pumpkinbutt]

Young?? No way!

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure, what are you -- fifteen? That's pretty young.

[pumpkinbutt]

For your information, I don't know how old I am. So there.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Okay, well, it doesn't really matter. Point is, you don't look ... uh, super experienced.

[pumpkinbutt]

I fight Witches back home for a living you know! I can handle myself just fine.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

[Oh, have this unimpressed look.]

Really. What do you do, take away their Hot Topic gift cards?

[pumpkinbutt]

Stop them from killing everyone, actually. What do you do?

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Kill guys, basically.

[pumpkinbutt]

...War?

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Uh, for awhile. Then it ended, but, you know, guys still gotta get killed sometimes.

[pumpkinbutt]

Uh...sure.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

[You don't seem very convinced! I wonder why!!]

Well, I mean there's always evil guys hanging around. War's not the only time somebody's gonna try to kidnap your family or blow something up with a laser.

[pumpkinbutt]

I guess that's true.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

So, fighting witches -- you use like, magic or whatever, or what?

[pumpkinbutt]

It's called Mana, but yeah. I use it to make myself stronger!

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Stronger -- like, physically? That's pretty cool. [Maybe impressed a little, now ...]

[pumpkinbutt]

Yup! And faster too!

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Does that just work for you, or for anybody?

[pumpkinbutt]

Any girl.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's a girl thing? That's pretty cool, I guess. Is there like, an equivalent for guys?

[pumpkinbutt]

Not...really. It's poisonous, and it tends to kill guys because they don't have an tolerance for it.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

... oh. [That sounds ... uh ...]

Well, never mind.
