Interest, sir? [ Oblivious Brigade is oblivious. Has not had any interaction with Tohru past post-challenge actually. ] Brother Assassin is interested in the War Hounds?

[tagabigay]

That does appear to be the case. He's been rather visible to them lately.

[Lifts an eyebrow.]

I suppose he has not turned up very often when you are around, so you have not noticed.

[atlas_shrugged]

I've only had chance moments with Fukuzawa-san, sir. Like at Josh's birthday.

[ He thinks on possible connections.

Taning - check; student.
Brianna - check(?); Hikaru adopting her(?)
Yulia - check(?); Bladian like his son(?)
Kaz - no check; no idea.
Josh - no check; possibly because close to his son(?)
Self - no check(?); generally uninteresting
As a Blade - contemplating; because they're the 4th Blade Hikaru's taken personal interest in?

Tohru himself - Obrimos, Former-now-again Searing Wind, Celestial Master --> Individual who likes to know the board? Ensure he has a good handle on it?

What would interest him? Likes his sniper rifle (rememebers Baguio when they saw him checking in with his family). Sniper getting lay of the field? Threat assessment?(!!! Brig is slightly alarmed. )

Brigade stays composed. ] I hope our Blade hasn't done anything wrong to have garnered Brother Fukuzawa's attention, sir? [ And adds as he's protective of his Blademates ] They're all good kids, sir.

[tagabigay]

I don't think that's the case anymore, but I'd rather not speak for him.

[Yeah. Definitely looking into this ASAP.]

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brigade nods. Slightly calmed by the Chief's assurance. He still makes a mental note to speak with Brother Assassin though. It might not be anything to worry about, but best to hit two birds with one stone ]

I'll make time to speak with Fukuzawa-san, sir. I think I need to, anyway, as Inquisitor Mordechai advised me that I should speak to him about the Wardens of the Wolf.

[tagabigay]

[That piques his interest. Then again, it's not too surprising.]

You're interested in becoming one.

[It isn't a question. Brigade seems like That Kind of Guy. Making it a question would be almost insulting.]

[atlas_shrugged]

Yes, sir, I am. [ Memories rush through Brigade's mind ] Hikaru told me stories of some of his other lives. How he was killed as a child in a good few. And I saw the video of his 27th Awakening.

[ A pause ]

I would like to help in keeping those from happening ever again. [ A beat ] I would like to be there for Little Brother when he needs his family.

[tagabigay]

[Nods in understanding.]

Well, if you are lucky, you will have more than enough time to talk to Fukuzawa-san on the matter. As things stand, I think that your reasons for wanting to join are more than valid.

[atlas_shrugged]

[ The Wardens of the Wolf. He's not sure who exactly are members but if Tohru Fukuzawa is one of them, Brig feels he'll have a really high bar to hurdle. ]

I will do my best, sir.

[ It comes to mind that this might be the last chance he gets to bring this next thing up with the Chief. By the sound of things, Eli may have his hands full once they're in the US.

It's taken up a lot of his time. A lot of dossiers and files to examine. Lots of names and family lineages he's been tracking. And some that worry him because records can only tell you so much. ]

Chief, about that assignment you gave me. [ He pulls out his tablet and gets ready to send the file ] I'm done. Sorry it took a while.

[tagabigay]

Good. We'll go over that soon.

[Speaking of... glancing towards the door now.]

I'll have to head off and make my own preparations. I'll shoot a text over to you once I'm ready to port us both out. Got any last questions?

[atlas_shrugged]

None, sir. I'll make my preparations as well.

[ There were a lot of them. And two of the most important started with the letters J and K. ]

I'll send them to you when we have time again so I don't clutter up your files, sir.

[ He's glanced at the same door the Chief's been looking. Exit stage right, here he comes again. ]

[tagabigay]

Don't worry about doing that. I'm used to getting a lot of stuff from pretty much everyone.

[Clapping your shoulder now.]

See you soon.

[And off he goes.]
