POSTED: May 20th
FROM: Amane Kuzuryu

I am looking for someone experienced with programming and technology.

[Attachment: COMP.jpg. That... looks like a certain handheld console.]

When I woke up this morning, there’s gift box with a COMP inside for me. The menu and features inside are different from what I know it should do. However, I’m not knowledgeable or skilled about technology to examine this.

Please contact me if you would like to help. As for payment, we can negotiate in person.

That's right. That's what it is. And it should have gaming capabilities as well.

["Should"...]

If you can, I would appreciate it.

I'll see what I can do
No guarantees though. If it isn't from this version of Japan, there's only so much I can do
Did you want to meet up somewhere?

That's fine. I prefer making an attempt, instead of not doing anything.

Yes, I would. [Hm, a good meeting place. There's always meeting at Oya's temple, since it's familiar to her. Or somewhere more neutral.] Do you know where Oya's temple is?

I think so
I'll probably be able to come over in a few minutes
Is now a good time? Anytime you're free is god.

Yes, now is a good time.

I'll be waiting at the front.

I'll see you soon.

[ He manages to show up ten minutes later, waving to Amane as he comes up to the temple. ]

Uh... you're Amane, right? I'm Eno, the one who said he wanted to take a look at that doohickey you put up on the BBS.

[Amane is there in front of the temple like she said. And in her hands is the COMP, currently close up right now. It definitely looks like a N*ntendo 3DS. She looks up at Eno and nods.]

Yes, that's right. I'm Amane Kuzuryu. It's nice to meet you, Eno, and thank you for coming.

[Since he did come all this way, using his own time.]

Would you like to come inside?

[Both because he's a guest, and because it might be easier to look at her COMP instead of standing outside of a Caribbean style temple.]

It's no problem.

[ Yup that definitely looks like a Nantindo 3DS alright. But he does nod back at her. ]

Sure. Lead the way. I hope you don't mind if I ask about the... COMP, was it?

I don't mind at all. Please follow me... and if you see a water buffalo, please don't mind her.

[So she can lead him inside and (probably) avoid the rude water buffalo that's hanging around the temple grounds.

So after that oddly ominous sounding warning, Amane turns and leads the way. Eno's free to ask questions now.]

A... water buffalo?

[ He can't help but glance around, trying to figure out where said water buffalo was. But there are more pressing things to tend to. ]

So... the COMP. Did it just show up one day?

She live on the temple grounds and likes to be rude to people.

[Mildly putting it. There's no water buffalo around so far, as Amane leads him into a building. A nice, temporary relief from the warm temperature outside.]

Yes. It showed up earlier today in a box. [She briefly wonder if she should say this next part.] With a card saying 'A Gift, Just Because'.

[Which baffles her more, because who would give it to her?]

That... sounds pretty inconvenient.

[ But what she says causes him to frown... and place a hand over the sword in its sheath that's strapped to his side. No matter where he goes, he feels like he has to bring it with him - like a missing limb that was returned to him. ]

...that happened to me once. Not the whole appearing with a card. Something showed up in my room without warning.

I wonder if someone or something brought them to us.

[Not her god. The style doesn't seem to fit Yoruichi.

She leads him to a place with a table and chairs. She gestures to a chair.]

Please take a seat. Would you like a drink?

[Since he's a guest right now.]

[ At the offer of a drink, he just shakes his head. ]

No... I'm fine. Thanks.

[ He settles himself down on the chair though, resisting the urge to look around. It's a little rude to stare, after all. Instead, he focuses on the task at hand, unstrapping his saber and setting it down on the table in front of him. ]

Whoever it was brought me this. I've taken to carrying it around because it feels... right, if you know what I mean. No card, no letter.... but it did come stuck in a sword for some reason.
