[ Video opens on Roslyn at her desk in the police office, well dressed as she holds up her badge in front of her for a little bit before placing it back down on the desk. The office is small and cramped and clearly actively in use by the piles of folders, even if they're neatly stacked and arranged. ]

Some time ago, the police force was unfortunate enough to lose Inspector Barnaby, Sergeant Howe, and Sergeant Calhoun back to their homes. Their service was appreciated and will be missed.

In their absence, I am currently assuming the reigns as Detective Chief Inspector of the Transport Affairs Unit. I wanted to reassure the population that the police will continue to operate with integrity and dedication. Should you ever require our services, we can be found at [ address & ooc link ].

For those of you considering joining the force, we are always welcoming new recruits and the pay is reasonable. Serving as an officer is a way to help mend the fences between us and the natives and earn a living. Thank you for your time.

I suppose so. It's certainly something you're quite familiar with.

[ a little shrug. ]

I think that's what I'm alive to do.

Only that?

[ he looks up to her and blinks. ]

I don't think I'm good for much else... or at much else.

I don't think that's an accurate assessment. And I don't think your friends would agree with you on that either.

[ riku runs a hand through his hair. ]

If I wasn't out there protecting everyone, I don't know what I'd do, or what else I'd even be good at doing.

Can you see yourself doing anything else than what you're doing? --not here... but back home.

For a long time, I couldn't.

[ She considers how to phrase it, concludes that there isn't particularly a right way. ]

So I quit my job until I could see myself doing something else.

[ he looks a bit taken aback--he can't help but blurt out ]

How long did that take?

[ something almost like a smile. ]

I'm afraid I don't know. I was pulled here shortly afterwards.

[ and he droops, sighing. ]

Figures. [ but he smiles. ] This place has that kind of timing.

I think - over time, I have come to accept it here. It is something that I will always find very important, but I don't think it is the only thing important to me anymore.

[ he nods lightly. ]

I guess... maybe when the war's over, I could... do that.

You should let me know how it goes. I think it could be a nice change for you.

Maybe when the time comes, you could help me start. I don't think I'd even know where to go.

I don't know, I hear people quite like beaches.

[ he smiles a little, sadly. ]

Do you?

I can't verify this, but they are a popular destination. Also forests, I believe.

I think forests might be better for me.

[ he shakes his head slightly. ]

Was that all?

Well then, perhaps try a forest first. [ Looking things over. ]

Yes, it is. I'll send you a schedule shortly.

[ he nods, and gets up. ]

Thanks. [ a little smile. ] I'm glad I can help more now.

I look forward to working with you.

Me too.

I'll see you later, Chief. [ said with a little grin, as he goes. ]
