I had fun! It’s actually incredibly interesting how you have to maneuver socially to get what you need done in that line of work.

@Multifarious

I'm glad. It's always more fun when you get to go on missions around somebody important; sometimes you go to parties, sometimes you see drama, other time you get to watch shows, and so on.

*Nods*
I can certainly see that!
*Folds my hands behind my back and shuffles nervously*
Say, could I ask you kind of a major question?...

@Multifarious

Sure, why not?

@Legend

Would you be opposed to a more long-term, like... Apprenticeship? I’ve been wanting to find a way to start contributing to the benefit of Existence at large, and I feel like this stuff is right up my alley.

@Multifarious

I can ask my boss about it. But now you've got me curious—didn't you say you wanted to do therapy?

@Legend

Of course! But that’s just for a job, a career. This stuff gives me a way to help the world with my fullest potential, and the scope is much, much wider.

@Multifarious

So you're telling me you want to be an investigator by night?

@Legend

I guess so. Maybe I’ll even come around on it and not be a therapist, who knows? But right now it’d just be alongside school.

*My eyes fixate on yours for a moment*
...I'll ask for you. But there are some parts of the job you need to be aware of before you jump into it. Nothing about it is black and white.

Oh?

The first thing is that we're not heroes. Sometimes you have to do things that you really don't want to do. Things that keep you up at night. You might be able to avoid some of that at first, but stay in it long enough and you'll soon find that the difference between a good guy and a bad guy is more than just the color of their cape.

@Legend

My dad was a tyrant with a vision, and my uncle an assassin and anarchist at the minimum. I fully understand and accept the idea that doing what we believe to be necessary can require some less than favorable actions. But I’m ready for it.

The second thing is that you want to help the world. Who are you helping with this?

@Legend

Everyone. If I’m contributing to putting down threats, that’s helping everyone who might have suffered in the future for them continuing to roam free.

This job lives in the world of information. Are you sure you don't want, deep down, to be a hero?

@Legend

Heroes are the idealist’s job, but this kind of work is just as necessary. Besides, it’s not like I’d be signing my life away with an apprenticeship. If it comes to be that it isn’t meant to be, then I’ll still appreciate the experience.

*Shrugs*
Fair enough. Just make sure that you don't lose yourself in the process.

@Legend

Of course. Thanks for at least considering it!

@Multifarious

Sure. Next time I go to HQ I'll ask—is there an easy way to get in contact?

My phone works Existence-wide. You do phones?
