The Peace Patrol has restricted access, and I am not the type of person they would likely let in for very long. I also don't wish to put up the appearance of something I loathe; I haven't the patience for it. However, they have some information that I want. A list, specifically, as well as some other things they may have hanging around. I want to know if they actually accomplish anything as they are, or if they're virtually useless.

How would you feel about some undercover work?

I...Well, sir...

You...This information is important? Not just...[Pen tap, doesn't want to accuse him of being bored]

[DON'T JUDGE HIS HOBBIES, OKAY]

It admittedly isn't a urgent project, since there hasn't been much obvious activity since the murders. Whether they're following up on these sorts of things would affect my own involvement in them.

But put it on the back-burner for when you feel like the 'vacation' is getting to you, hm~? I'll let you know if it becomes of an immediately higher priority.

It's simply that...Things have an unfortunate habit of becoming public knowledge. Their behaviour sharply suggests I wouldn't thank being caught..

Though...I suppose...If it wouldn't trouble you too much to keep an eye on Kotarou, I could..

[S-So mean ;_;]

Sayuka, I'm asking you to join in on the Peace Patrol deal, not shipping you off to Africa or anything. Just mention to Jet or Tony Stark when you get a chance that you'd like to help, and maintain contact with them over the journals from time to time.

I know that you're a very clever woman. I don't think you'd be caught even if they knew I sent you. Just keep public communication with me to a minimum over the journal while you do so--as I said, you don't have to do it now. Perhaps when Kotarou isn't as time-consuming.

I don't know, sir. I may prefer...Do you know if there are any further requirements to gain access to the information you want, beyond simply requesting to join?

[Pause, flustered surprise at the compliment]

Y-You do?

[side tracked, quickly] Speaking of Kotarou...

None that I've heard of. Would you like me to look into it further?

[not even skipping a beat]

Of course. I've been paying attention to your recent interactions in the journal and I have to say I'm impressed. You've done very good work recently, especially upon becoming more familiar with the residents.

Hm? What about him?

Oh...No, I wouldn't want to trouble you. I'm sure I could find out..

[More flustered] I...Zelman-sama...T-th..[Too flustered, and decides to just let the fact that pays attention to her sink in, if this wasn't dictated, she might actually giggle]

He wants to try out Halloween. He'd like to do something for it with...well, the two of us. Possibly with matching costumes. I told him I'd see how busy you were.

Take your time. There's a lot of that, around here, after all.

[JUST AS PLANNED.]

Oh? [a considering pause] Well, I don't see why not~ It's not like I'd plan anything on Halloween anyway.

Seems to be, sir. But I won't take too much. Just in case the castle decides to remove me.

I wasn't sure what the castle's norm for holidays were. Well then, do you have any ideas? I'm afraid Halloween and costumes..aren't my thing, much less matching ones. [are you shocked~?]

Ah... Let's hope it doesn't, then.

I'm sure Kotarou and I can think of something.

..Oh?

Something...simple, I hope?

Does it need further explanation?

No promises~
