Mission 22 [voice/action]

[redhairedknight]

[Erza's horoscope reads:
Aries
-Your father is not an astronaut.  
-A stranger may mean you harm this week so greet everyone with a blood-curdling shriek.
-While you were away from home, a stranger showered in your bathroom.
-Buy a cat and name it Chris. It will get you out of a jam.

Naturally, she doesn't believe a word of it.]

This is absolutely ridiculous.  And what's an astronaut?  

[The only one which sounds remotely plausible would be the third one, so after finding out what an astronaut is, she heads back to her apartment.  Will she find anyone there?  Who knows!]

((OoC: I haven't really planned anything for this event, so anything goes!))

Can't say I met anyone like that, but I suppose I'll have to keep an eye out.

Sounds like you've got a lot to live up to. ...That name sounds familiar, though... [Erza had seen a collection of Sherlock Holmes stories in the library at some point, but she didn't really look into it. Still, the name stuck.]

Hey, don't go giving Goemon a lecture. He's a proud, honorable man--he knows exactly what he's doing.

And the name should sound familiar. I mean, we are talking about the greatest detective and the greatest thief of all time here. It's not that big a burden to live up to. It's a fun challenge, actually.

Well, as long as he doesn't steal anything here, there won't be any problems.

...I suppose that's a good way of looking at it. So you were named after him, I take it?

[voice]

I told you--honorable man. Anyway...yeah. I was.

...and we're talking an awful lot about me. Boring stuff too. What about you?

I'm sure that the story of my life won't be very impressive from your standpoint - I've been working in a mage's guild for most of it. It's good, honest work, even if it gets dangerous at times. [...She takes the ability to use magic for granted at times, especially when so many people here can use it.]

[Erza...shouldn't have said that.]

Mage's Guild...? [the feelings of delight and awe at the coolness factor is evident in his voice. Be glad that he isn't fanboying. He's done that to someone already since his arrival.]

[voice]

[redhairedknight.livejournal.com]

[Well, that was... unexpected.] Um... Yes. We usually fight off monsters, stop dark guilds from committing crimes, and do odd jobs like finding lost cats. My guild's called Fairy Tail, and we're the best in the land of Fiore!

You fight monsters too?? And dark mages??

[He's fanboying now. He's fought 'monsters' too--if humans who intentionally mutated themselves count--but never with magic or anything.]

Aside from the stuff like finding kitties, that sounds cool! ...You haven't found any cats that eat pencil shavings, have you? You know, I met a Ninja recently who also did lots of odd jobs and stuff in her home...I never thought people who do cool things like you also did such normal things!
