WHO: Rover and you!
WHAT: Snooping log
WHERE: August event - Seoul
WARNINGS: as they come up.
01. CRIME TIME
ooc. this is a free-for-all snooping log following this thread where i asked the mods about the criminal activity in the area leading up to the kaiju sightings. there's plenty of leeway to be had within the situation they'd laid out, and rover's willing to partner with whomever's interested to explore these scenarios.
to give a general overview of her capabilities, rover isn't an interrogator, neither is she a spy; she's your main tank when trouble comes down. she can be very straightforward in situations where more delicacy is required. if you want to make things easier, we can assume they've skipped the introductions and your character and rover know each other already by name.
these are the situations i've thought of to fit the bill:
A. chats with grunts - OTA - happening in various areas of seoul, where one situation leads to another, and ends in a late night stroll through the markets where Outsiders are told about the increased activity. this can be as exciting or straightforward as you want; the mods said that being nosy gets the citizens in trouble, so a goose chase around town is possible as well.
B. difficult evacuees - EVERLIGHT/REDEMPTION - happening during the evacuation where Outsiders were told to investigate for kaiju remains. maybe they find a group of more vulnerable people not quite trusting of the seoul government who've decided to stay behind, trusting instead that the gangs they pay fealty to will uphold their end of the bargain to protect them. these groups decided to stay in their dwellings despite the danger. again, the situation can be as exciting or dramatic or straightforward as you'd like!
02. JUNE, I NEED A TEXT OPTION.
ooc. here you go!

ooc. if you come up with something else, i'll roll with it!

[ she turns on him, and then sees he still has a bit of tempura in his hand. or did. she takes it and eats it. ]
- Hey, thanks. [ they're still running. ]
laughing
More like you dragged me into it!! [ Nevermind the tempura. He starts glancing around for escape routes. ] What did you do to piss them off?!
no subject
[ and hey, if he's an outsider like her, eventually it's going to smack them in the faces anyway, as far as she's concerned. ]
That tempura was great, by the way. Good choice.
[ they exit the stalls and get into traffic, and rover leaps over the barricades to move right through the cars. they're still being pursued. ]
no subject
[ Forget the tempura!! The imminent threat to their life is more important!! Also, why are they suddenly running through traffic what the heck. There's honking and beeping and he waves at a car that narrowly swerves aside to avoid hitting him. ]
We're here to hunt kaiju not start street brawls!
no subject
[ after having weaved thru traffic and out into another alley, rover pauses so the two of them can catch their breaths. she is quiet for a while, listening around her surroundings. ]
... I think we've lost them. [ her voice is even, low as she says it. ] But we should keep moving.
And the reason why it ended in a brawl was because people here are very touchy regarding the involvement of some gangs with trading kaiju parts for money. [ she sighs. ] I thought I could get leads, but ... well. You saw.
I'll get you your food, just help me keep an eye out for trouble.
no subject
Forget about the food. Not like I can stomach it right now.
[ Who can think about eating when they're being targeted...Besides Rover apparently. ]
Let's just call the local authorities and be done with it.
no subject
Since most of them are still within the same area, it won't be too difficult for them to clean up the mess.
[ she watches him try to gather his breath and she looks at him with a bit of worry. ] Are you alright?
no subject
[ He huffs. He's not out of shape but he doesn't have the stamina of a shounen protag, please give him time to recover. ]
Why did you go barging into their turf by yourself? [ He won't say she could have been killed because who knows, maybe she could've taken them all out and won. Outsiders and their weird powers. But— ] You stick out way too much.
no subject
[ kidding. anyway rover just hums at his question, and then she says, ] ... you think so? I thought it wouldn't be too bad if I just went, honestly.
But maybe I need company next time. If nothing else, there's safety in numbers - so I'll keep that in mind.
no subject
We're foreigners. People are going to be suspicious and clam up. You'll need a damn good undercover story...but leave me out of it.
[ He's done the undercover thing before. He's through with it! Free him. ]
no subject
[ undercover story, huh .... ]
How'd that come about for you? Was that from your previous job?
no subject
[ His immediate, knee-jerk reaction is to lie. Don't peg him as a spy wtf. ]
It's just common sense. If you go poking your nose where it doesn't belong, try not to get caught.
[ Spoken like a troublemaker. Is this explanation even helping his case... ]
no subject
... I guess you're just a crime enthusiast.
[ does that count ... anyway they're going to walk towards the station. more moving, but at least they can take their time and they're not worried about moving through the crowds, or traffic, to make their escape. ]
no subject
I think the only enthusiastic one here is you.
[ He responds dryly. Please...he's the most crime unenthusiastic person here. Though he might prefer her thinking that as opposed to him having a shady past. As they move towards the police station he keeps glancing back to check they aren't being tailed, even jumping a bit when a stray cat darts into the alley unexpectedly. ]
no subject
Aren't you curious about what the city's up to, with regards to the kaiju problem? [ rover asks him, and then adds, later on, and more to herself - ] ... well, it's certainly a personal interest of mine.
[ she sees him get jumpy over a cat and smiles, patting him on the shoulder. ] Relax. I'm with you.
[ she's not sure that's much help, but anyway! ]
no subject
Yeah I'm curious, but not enough to go sniffing for danger. The kaiju will come for us sooner or later, trust me. Why do you care what's going on in someone else's turf anyway?
no subject
A lot of the people who were targeted seem to have been part of the crime scene. So I figured I'd follow some rumours and see where that takes me. [ rover pauses, and then says, rather thoughtfully, ] I guess I was too persistent in the questioning, and they didn't like that.
no subject
[ He might be exaggerating a little, but he's a chronic underperformer himself. Another turn of a corner and the police station's in sight. ]
