[ It's a strange sort of mission, even when one takes into account the missions that could have been received from ALASTAIR. Infiltrate a world where nobles walk in a city of modernity, extract information from the weapons ring that lies deep in the reaches of the mafia, and destroy it before it destroys this realm.
Truly, an almost insurmountable task, but they have time. For now.
The two of them have been given quite important roles due to their ability. He, a lord and she to pretend to be his loyal lady, attending a meeting of the monarchial circle later in the evening to gather information. They've both been briefed about what they should know and should not tell, so it should not be too difficult. In theory. ]
How goes your preparations?
[ It's still the afternoon and the mansion allocated to them is unoccupied save for two servants on duty (and out of earshot). ]
[She could think of a few ways to end a mafia syndicate but apparently they have to go about it carefully. As a careful person, she doesn't argue about it after.
Because they need the information. It's an operation that requires layers.
Her preparations were a lot simpler than thought, since all she had to do was find the right clothes to gear up. They're in her bag now, and she pets it.]
I think I am ready, whenever you would like to start. What of yourself, Julius?
[ It went without saying that Vietnam had more experience than him in handling these sort of matters. He had felt it more appropriate for her to take the lead instead of him, but this particular family required a male head instead of a female one and thus he was pressed into the role. Of course, he regarded it with the same objectivity that was applied to every mission, but he did voice his displeasure to her just once. ]
We still have a little time before we have to leave.
[ He's nervous, yes, but it barely shows. ]
I doubt they will poison anything, but we should be careful just in case.
[ She would also know that he can't take alcohol at all. That means no drinking. ]
[Somehow, people tend to get frazzled for her despite the fact that she doesn't mind at all. Sometimes, her life is just that, to be underestimated, to follow rules. And she does, in order for them to underestimate her.]
Oh, then would you like to rest a little more?
[Staying calm is best, and to do so, one should be relaxed before they can be alert.]
Understood. I rather not drink much, it will weaken our senses. [Especially if they're both poor drinkers.]

It's up to you. If you think we should arrive early, then we will.
[ He thumbs through a few screens on his tablet again, just to be sure. ]
Do you have any other advice?
[ It's in part to stave off his own uncertainty, but he'd like to check her opinion again, if there's something else he'd missed. ]

I would prefer to, so we can have time to look around, but if you wish for us to blend, which she come right on time.
[Not her first gig, so she seems to be taking it a lot more easier than one would expect from a girl who looks as delicate as her.]
