::Meanwhile, at a lab near or on Leo Duel School property, Eren drinks her coffee, hoping the Expert Mr. Akaba sent for comes, or another test subject. It's been dull work lately, as she's mostly been trying to figure out if she can pull out the Essences from Akashiro and Samasu.::

::Looks at Reiji again.::

Hybrid Project?

[crimsoncryptid]

Infusing humans with the essence of Spirits and Monsters to give them supernatural abilities, Miss.

::When did the boss get such a young secretary. Furthermore, why is the boss here.::

[lunalightlady]

::Just gives a look, Eren. Of complete revulsion.::

[copycatconstruct]

*... you feel a slight tugging at your sleeve, Serena.

Looks like Reira's at least noticed that you're definitely not happy with that. is this them trying to comfort you? It's hard to tell with them.*

[lunalightlady]

::Looks down, her face calming. And sighing annoyedly as she rubs your shoulder, Reira.::

[ruleroftheend]

::... I'll ask her later why she scowled so fiercely.::

You do realize this is the expert I hired to help you with the research to help integrate and remove Essences easier, among other things, Doctor Mabonaka.

[crimsoncryptid]

Um. No...? They sounded like they were a test subject.

::Look of deer in headlights.::

[ruleroftheend]

I shall keep that in mind.

::Taking off his glasses to wipe them with a hankerchef.::

I also assume you are not aware they are Samasu Souha, husband to the 3rd or 4th wealthiest person in the city, Mrs. Wakahisa Noriko?

[crimsoncryptid]

N-n-n-no...

::Oh god, I'm going to be killed.::

[ruleroftheend]

I think it would be in your best interests, Dr. Mabonaka, if you too an extended paid leave of absence. While I try to convince his family to not sue Leo Corporation OR you for everything we're both worth.

While you figure out why you keep injecting essences into people meant to be assistants, not test subjects.

[crimsoncryptid]

Please don't throw me into Domino Bay with cement shoes!

[copycatconstruct]

... Cement shoes...?

*Reira says that like, that sounds like that'd be annoying to walk in... entirely missing the actual point of what Eren's saying.*

[ruleroftheend]

::Stares through you, Eren, with the same piercing look Reira does to people.::

[lunalightlady]

::Wondering herself what the lady meant.::

[crimsoncryptid]

Everyone keeps being so vague, I'msorryimsorryimsorrypleasedontkillmeorsellmetoafricaorthailand.

[ruleroftheend]

... I'm not going to kill you, Doctor.

Just put you on extended leave. With pay. And decide if I should fire you or not. And not light you on fire. I mean end your employment with the company.

[crimsoncryptid]

S-so... w-what? I. Just leave?

[ruleroftheend]

Yes. Preferably now. So liability is reduced and I can get the Leo Corp Top Team in here and make sure Mr. Samasu is treated and not in a condition that will make his wife even more furious than I already expect her to be.

Take time off.

Spend time with a relative of yours. Or go take a vacation. Just. Go.

[crimsoncryptid]

R-r-r-right.

::Scuttles past the three of you and starts clicking her heels as fast as possible OUT of the building.::

[lunalightlady]

::Waits until she hears the shoes vanish.::

What are cement shoes, and why are you instilling the Mark of Cain into people.

[ruleroftheend]

... Firstly, it's a term. Well a concept. Basically people will be cast into concrete, the shoes or have themselves put into a barrel and cement poured in. It's used by the Yakuza to get rid of difficult people, by then taking and dumping them into water. Preferably deep water.

Secondly, the Mark of What?

[lunalightlady]

People who half monster or less than human, according to where I'm from, Akaba, are the descendants of sinners. And are made well aware they're less than others.

[ruleroftheend]

Because unlike your world, I don't have an entire army. And I need every man woman and unfortunately, child, who is willing to pitch in to stop The Professor.

[lunalightlady]

By costing them their humanity?

::Looks offended.::

[ruleroftheend]

We'll talk about this later.

We need to clear out of here. Immediately.
