So, a whiles into the gaming the television starts to fill with static. Soon enough the screen goes black in the centre, a perfectly circular region with a ring of shifting white noise at its edges drowning out all the gameplay.

There's a flicker at your side, and then Winter. "Well it looks like someone doesn't know how to use a door. I could've sworn we fixed that problem."

Noriko sighed. She seemed to be doing a lot of that lately. "So it's the thing from that one horror movie. Am I going to have to stab another random Mononoke to death, or is this someone I can actually talk to?"

Kouta, for his parts, looked equal parts frustrated and scared. He'd had an eight kill streak. . .

"This one talks. Feel free to stab it though."

Darkness spills out from the center, pooling outwards ink staining paper. Striding fourth is a girl, the classical visage of a yurei, raven haired with a deathly pale paler. Y'know it's really not that scary when they have a proper dress and haircut. Even less so when your two AI roommates are berating her before the darkness even dissipates.

"Please move. You're blocking the screen."
"What happened to using a door?"
"What, you expect me to climb up all those stairs?"
"Well we expect a lot of things, but yes, let's start with the stairs."
A childish pout.
"Whatever, you're the ones that called me here."

The girl turns to face you, she's in her early teens with short hair and dressed in a black dress, carrying a silver briefcase that looks too large for her frame. Arsenite-green eyes scanning over you and then Kouta.

"So, you're Noriko and Minato then?"

"No, Minato is the big red idiot, not short and green." Kouta would have been offended if he wasn't too busy being thoroughly confused. "You're interrupting my game and scaring my little brother, you know."

"Wait, you have a brother?"
"Screen. Away."
"Fine, fine, geez, you don't need to scream into my ear like that."
So the little brat finally gets the fuck away from the screen and just keeps on talking.
"So it's just the two of you? Where's all the other people?"
"Something turned up, they should be back soon enough."
"Whatever, I can talk to them. So the Appleton Estate, what are you plans?"

"You're going to have to explain more than that. Start with your name, why you know me, and who and/or what the Appleton Estate is." It seemed impolite from the outside, but she was doing her best not to threaten the stranger with taking up the offer her AI companions had so graciously put on the table.

Fortunately for Kouta's kill streak, they'd won the game shortly after the girl's appearance. He quickly canceled the queue for the next match, and started to slowly sidle toward the back room.

"It's fine, stay."
Enn turns to face the girl.
"if you wouldn't mind."

The girl begins heading out to the main living room area, waiting expectantly for you to follow.
"Slaine O'Leary; I work in Acquisitions, a job like this? Word gets around, in certain groups at least. The Society dispatched me here, wanted me to help organize your gear and all that for the mission."

Noriko glanced over her shoulder. "Sorry, Kouta, looks like I've got more work to do." She returned her attention to Slaine. "You probably should have opened with that. Or at least knocked first. Especially if you were expecting to walk in on Minato. . ." She followed the girl out of the room, looking more tired than anything else.

"Oh hey, who's that little girl?"
Satoshi, who for whatever reason is still just lounging around your living room waves as you come out.

"Maybe. Anyway, do you guys have a plan for how to go about it?"

Yoake leans onto the table, holding her chin up with both hands, grinning widely.

"So, it's just you and me for now! How're you holdin' up? Sorry if that was a little much for ya'! Even I'm surprised by how intense that got. It was so bad my outfit changed!"

The ribbons on Yoake's outfit flutter about even without a breeze.

Yoake's smile dims, but she does not frown.

"Okay, but we're safe now so there's no need to be so stressed."

Yoake shrugs.

"I'm... not super sure. He would know better than me. Who you work for is probably a good start though."

Yoake
"Until a month ago I was working for Big John, smuggling. Then one day this guy comes walkin' in, saying he was the new boss. Didn't catch a name, don't think he ever gave one. Foreigner, wore a suit, didn't look like one of ours, came alone. We said he don't work with anyone other than the boss, said he was the new boss. No one believed him but then, ugh, before we all knew it we were on the ground, some of the guys are still in hospitable after that, the guy must be a black belt in something. Fucking pulled out John's head, his guys came in after, the guys in black you killed. Said either we'd help out or there wouldn't be anything left for the cops to find. Guy was dead serious. Told us we were smuggling meth now, we were doing gold and ivory before. Told him that. The guy said we better start learning, else, yeah." He makes a throat slitting motion. "The product came from him, the muscle too. Don't know where he got it, don't wanna know either."
