[ He is much too young for her, thanks. But she enters and moves to stand by the window, not taking a seat which seems to imply that this won't take very long. Once there, she'll wait for him to close the door before speaking again. ]
Lucio has offered me a more difficult challenge than the game put forward to everyone. One that could benefit us all with knowledge and in everyday survival. Should we win, we will be granted unlimited access to the basement.
In exchange, I must take two people and kill the oldest living creature in a certain location. For that, I require your help.
[ That is... about as close as she gets to asking nicely... ]
[Listen he's just not??? Used to it???? Japanese socialization and distance... He listens to what she has to say, rather than thinking about it, though. A challenge, with a reward that will help everyone...and she came to him for it. Naturally the power he has, that was hers, comes to mind as a reason for it.]
An execution. [That's what this amounts to, basically. It's what Mitsuru would call it. He nods to the request.] Will help. Do you have a plan?
[ She isn't exactly the politest of individuals so no need to be so formal with her. A casual shrug of her shoulders. ]
He didn't say if it was a human or other similar creature. For all we know, it could be a beast of some nature. [ It'd be a lie if she didn't say she wasn't thrilled by the mystery of that. ] The beginnings of one and you're necessary for it.
If this should happen to be some sort of trick and I end up being the oldest creature there, all you have to do is pull me from another point in time. I'll take care of the rest. [ That's part of it. ]
And if there is a different creature, you will be responsible for ensuring we don't permanently die fighting it. You're our insurance to coming out of this alive. If one of us dies, pull us from the past - preferrably a recent point in time.
[As he thought. His power is key for surviving this.]
Understood. [She's really thought this through a lot. Good. Plans can be useless, but thorough planning is essential. He doesn't like the idea of having to watch people die again, but...but it'll be because he's saving those same people.]
Am a capable fighter, too, with a variety of weapons. Field leader of my squad.
[ Shea has had this power for a while now and knows how to best utilize it. Not to mention that she has no problem seeing herself die if it comes down to it. Or killing herself either. This is why she won't take anyone older than her on this adventure. ]
You are not allowed to use a blade of any kind or poison. So if you have either of those, don't even bother bringing them. I'll select a third tomorrow and ensure that they're younger than I am.
[ A nod of her head. If he's actually any good with his fists, Shea will respect him that much more. ]
I'll be fighting with my fists as well, plus utilizing my two abilities if I can. [ Since she "won" one back for participating in Lucio's demonstration. ]
[ She likes the way he thinks. ] If it looks like we're struggling, you can always summon another version of me. If all of the ones you pull light on fire like that, I will do my best to damage the opponent with my body.

Shea-san. Did something happen?
no subject
Don't call me that, it sounds weird. Just Shea is fine. [ Does she care about human honorifics? Nope. ]
Let's chat in private. [ She motions to his room. ] Are you alone?
no subject
He nods. Akechi isn't in at the moment. Opens the door wider and steps aside to let her in.]
