*So, as you may know, Kou has been working at DA now. This isn't too much of a secret, though he hasn't really given a reason for why he's doing this.
Well, you may find him acting upon one of these reasons, later in the night on the island or in the city [You Choose Which]-- perhaps you're someone who just doesn't follow the rules of curfew or you're late coming from things you had to do, but you'll find some guy following another, certain creepy shut-in dude.
If he's in the city, he's in his dumb incognito outfit, but if he's on the island, he isn't bothering with it. Stands out too much in that situation.*

I saw ya just... walk into the river."
no subject
You're a student, right? You shouldn't be out so late.
no subject
"It's, uh. Me. Renat Briar? ... stuff happened, don't worry about it."
no subject
Huh. Things... definitely happened to you. I'd been wondering where you got off to after I gave you my research notes.
no subject
I wanted to start back on these sorta projects, even if I'm gonna have to repeat the year. Some things are more important. What're you doing out here? Research?"
no subject
I was trying to see if there was a way into there from underwater.
*... something about this... feels like a cover-up. just the way he's saying it.*
no subject
"Is there? It's also fine if ya thought I was one of the duel bears or something and walked into the water to get away from me. A little weird, but whatever works, y'know?"
Oh god I did, I sort of called him out on it.
no subject
If I thought you were one of those dueling bears, I'd have not bothered to partially undress.
no subject
She snaps.
"Oh, man, if there's maybe a vault though, we can bust out some scuba gear or something!"
no subject
Though... *he adjusts his glasses slightly*
Why were you following me, anyway? It is rather late...
no subject
no subject
Huh. Well, I guess you were on the mark there.
Did you see anyone else, by the way?
no subject
I thought I caught a glimpse of someone else, but I wasn't sure."
no subject
I've been followed for quite a while, now.
*... so he definitely knows.*
no subject
no subject
I barely even duel at all, anyway!
no subject
Maybe it's like a secret admirer and they just don't know how to confess their feelings."
no subject
Oh, no, probably not that either.
I think it's someone nosing in on things, that's all. Maybe someone who believes the jittery accusations of the history teacher. Well, one of them anyway.
no subject
Besides, you're just doing research. Ain't much to 'nose in on' here, unless you're worried they're gonna take what you've got and publish under their name. ... which is absolutely something that happens in this field, ain't it?"
no subject
Actually not as much as you think, funnily enough.
My field is extremely... niche. In fact, a lot of people still like to deny it exists in any serious capacity, beyond theorists who say that aliens have influenced humanity and built the pyramids.
Which is rather silly, isn't it?
no subject
Glad that it ain't some weirdo stalking ya then. If I manage to catch them I'll yell at them or something."
no subject
After all, there's a lot of people out there who might get the wrong idea about others, and might make risky choices. I'd really hate to get dragged into some big deal about it, just because I might act a little...
Weird, I guess?
