Option A:
Uh.
Don't panic: possible livestock emergency.

One of the locals told me she left a hen on my porch. Guess what? Porch, no chicken.
So, you know.

If seen, do not engage. Report all chicken- and chicken-related activity.

[ ooc: Network/action, feel free to sight this chicken around town if you like! ]



Option B:
I heard some of you booze hounds were sniffin' around, so lemme save ya the trouble. My name's Majima, and I run the bar. The rules are don't be an asshole.

Here's a map. There's pool and darts. Got some smokes, too, but you better give me a real good reason why I should part with those.

Vampires. I'm a hunter.

[justbeingknife]

Uh... there a lot of vampires in Japan?

Actually, are there a lot here?

[bloodyrose]

There's an entire society of them.

[ There are places here and there which have a smaller, if not nonexistent population, but in general they're also all over the world. So, yes. ]

No. Not from what I can tell.

[ Including he and Yuuki, there are less than ten. Maybe closer to five.]

[justbeingknife]

Guess that's a positive. Seems like that'd be a good startin' point for intracommunity friction.

[ awkward dinner conversations ahoy ]

[bloodyrose]

Oh, there's conflict, among other things. Although up until the past few years, humans weren't aware of the vampires' existence as a whole.

[justbeingknife]

Do I wanna know what happened when they found out?

[bloodyrose]

If anything, it wasn't the mass panic that we had assumed would happen. Although there are also plenty of vampires who aren't hostile, and only want to live in peace.

[justbeingknife]

Just like human folks, huh?

But all of 'em were that peaceful, wouldn't be any need for anyone to hunt 'em down.

[bloodyrose]

Exactly, on both accounts. There still are plenty of vampires who go rogue, or in general believe they're above humanity and can attack and kill as they please. They're the ones who get themselves listed.

[justbeingknife]

So ya get paid for takin' them down, or is it more of a pro bono thing?

[bloodyrose]

I do. And in the first place, being a hunter is something one is born into. I began training when I was around five.

[ It's (maybe surprisingly) lucrative. Even when growing up, with his parents still around, he's always been financially comfortable. ]

[justbeingknife]

So yer family's in the business? Sounds rough.

If it's not yer inclination to start with, that is.

[ Think about all the drama that went into inheriting so much as a restaurant... ]

[bloodyrose]

It's an entire bloodline, actually. I've never had an issue with doing so. There are also those who help out more with the behind the scenes stuff, like a desk job, compared to my being on the field. Although I'll do both at times.

[ In fact, he's actually slated to become the Association's president. ]

[justbeingknife]

Ugh. Desk jobs.

Alright, well, guess we've talked each other's ears off. If ya ever want to go in for a game of darts, lemme know. And here's hopin' about that gun of yours.

[bloodyrose]

Sounds like a good plan to me, then. I'll probably take you up on that.
