He's super weird.

Is Asia a country on Earth?

Gee, thanks. [If she knew he was talking about her roommate, she'd probably actually be a little mad over the mistaken identity.]

Yeah. It's not where I originated from, but I had been there for most of my last few years before waking up here. As I'm sure you vividly remember.

I told you, idk how he texts. You're not half as weird as he is. At least not in bad ways, dw about it.

Yeah we don't have to go over it again....... Were you living there on your own?

Quit while you're still ahead.

You sure you don't wanna go over it again? But yeah. Granted, I had been living alone for a while in the US too.

Did you live alone too, in Lucis?

[ Reading "Lucis" shouldn't be a surprise but it always is a little, somehow. ]

Kind of, it's complicated. Couldn't really do w/e I wanted but I had my own apartment for a couple years while I was in hs and after I graduated.

Because of the whole expectations thing, right? That blows.

I guess it wasn't all that glamorous for me either, when I was in high school. It was hard trying to keep up with multiple things at once. But, it was almost a little nice when I moved out of the country for a while. The freedom, at least, was amazing.

Yeah expectations.

What all were you doing in hs? You mean like training? I did that a lot too and started a long time ago.

Yeah, that can be a pretty heavy burden. Especially when you want to live up to the expectations.

Well, I was training up until I kinda lost the person I was learning from. My profession and studying to try to keep myself from failing school was enough to drive anyone nuts.

I'm the last person you have to tell that to trust me.

I hated studying too. There was too much going on anyway. You started your "profession" in hs though?

Yeah, I kinda got the impression you know all too well.

I didn't mind it that much, really. It was just too much on top of everything else.

Yeah, I started in high school. Youngest member, at the time, but also a whole lot more skilled than most back then too.

Well at least one of us didn't hate it lol.

Member? Like of a group or a company or what?

If it’s any consolation, I wouldn’t want to study from r whatever the hell that math problem was either.

Association, to be exact. Are you sure you really wanna know what I do?

Wow you have a good memory, but they weren't really like that. Just a weird dream ig.

Any reason why I shouldn't?

I don't remember what the hell the problem was, just that it made no damned sense to me, whatever it was.

[While she doesn't have any issue in revealing her profession, as she did when she was younger, Shinobu still hesitates for the sole reason of trying to keep panic down around the base.

But whatever, if Noctis couldn't handle it, they couldn't hang anyway. So she's just going to be incredibly blunt here.]

Because it's kind of an association of assassins.

Oh.

[ The first message that's sent too early, only to be followed by another a solid minute later. ]

I get it. You wouldn't be the first merc i met here or back home anyway, I've worked with a couple.

You're taking it a lot better than I thought you would. Also didn't take you for the type to hire mercs either, interesting.

Hey I didn't say I hired any, just that I worked with some. Or at least one. I hang out at Hunter HQ a lot too but that's for killing non-humans causing issues.

In the end, hunting and assassinating really aren't that too far from each other.

What kind of non-humans are we talking, here? I feel like something like deer wouldn't be that much of an issue.

Deer? Idk what that is but I'm talking about beasts or daemons. Those are the big ones. They cause a lot of problems.

Someone's gotta do it.

Wait a second, you're taking on demons? Some kind of gang or...?

lmao what kind of terrible gang name would that even be? You can't just be The Daemons.

You'd be surprised. Simplicity is kind of a go-to for those kinds of things. What kind of convoluted shit do they come up with, where you're from?

You're moving on from the fact that I fight daemons way too quick.....

[ PRAISE ME ]

You're the one that had a hard time believing that someone would dare to name themselves after something cool.

But okay, you fight demons, tell me more. What kind are we talking here?
