[ A good deal of you may not recognize this man: dark brown hair, blue eyes behind glasses staring soberly forward, and if you look for it, there are signs that the suit he's wearing hasn't been properly laundered for some time. He blinks before clearing his throat, then nods--at you, perhaps? ]

While we are on the subject of bringing order and usefulness here--

[ He pushes up those glasses. ]

As of today, I and my colleagues have started a freelance agency. To put it shortly, if you should need any service done--scientific research or development, bodyguard services, counseling, or cleaning, for example--any one of us will be able to assist you. For a negotiated fee, of course.

[ For the sake of a friendly appearance, he attempts a smile, though it seems a natural one. ]

I can guarantee that any task will be performed upon request for the right price.

[ The smile doesn't even fade as he again clears his throat. ]

Should anyone require our services, please contact me. My name is Seiichirou Tatsumi--Unit 141 in the East Wing, and you may contact me in any way you see fit. You may also contact Asato Tsuzuki, Yutaka Watari, or Hisoka Kurosaki--these three gentlemen and I will be happy to serve any way that we can.

Cleaning.

Yes, Mistress Anne?

Mistress Boleyn.

[ Mishmashing the titles, now! ]

Be it no place of mine to say, but it seems strange to put soldiers to cleaning.

text

[occlusion]

[ one day he will get it right. ]

My apologies. It may seem strange, but if it is a task someone needs to have done, then it will be done.

[ensorceler]

I could make use of this, but only for one who understands how to be discreet. It would be better if you also had a woman in your employ.

text

[occlusion]

Discretion will be followed upon request. Though, why do you say a woman need be in employ?

text

[ensorceler]

A woman would feel more comfortable with another woman handling her belongings and personal space.

[occlusion]

[ perhaps a 30 second delay before-- ]

This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with biological issues, would it?

text

[ensorceler]

I do not understand what you mean.

text

[occlusion]

[ Yes, definitely a longer pause in response this time. ]

Never mind that. It would be impolite to discuss. But I can assure you that no thievery of any kind or improper conduct would take place on my watch.

text

[ensorceler]

I would not believe any of you to be thieves in the worst case. That is no concern of mine. It is more fitting, and comforting.

[ Especially for handling her 'under things' which are really just shifts/nightgowns, but also she could sit and do needlework with a lady. Sigh. ]

Mayhap it would do your business good to hire a girl or woman.

text

[occlusion]

I see. Yes, that makes sense, if it is for your comfort, Mistress Boleyn. Perhaps, if I should find a suitable hire, you would consider, then?

text

[ensorceler]

I would. I think it would be quite useful, and would treat her well.

Tatsumi's expertise is cleaning!

[ Volunteers Tatsumi for all things Anne~~ ]</small.

[ensorceler]

That is not how he originally explained his work to me.

[scienceinacan]

He cleans a lot! You'll find he's the best at cleaning of us four. So that should count as an expertise...

[ensorceler]

I would prefer a woman.

[scienceinacan]

A woman?

[ Did you want Tatsumi turned into a woman....? Is that it? ]

[ensorceler]

I ought not need to explain myself.

[scienceinacan]

Well, that's a problem! None of us are girls... right now, anyway.

[ensorceler]

Or ever, I should hope!

[scienceinacan]

Never say never!

[ensorceler]

I pray this place and time is so not so cursed and monstrous.

[ She's the wrong person to talk about genderswaps to bro. ]

[scienceinacan]

[ Boo. ]

Different times, I suppose!

[ Genderswapping wasn't a thing in the... 18th century? or 19th century?! ]

[ensorceler]

[ 16th century, wow. Way off. ]

I loathe a time in which one's own sex is not even pure. It is God who makes us as we are.
