Re: Background noise
(OOC: This sequence is the discussion between Rose and Argus after parting company with Professor Indianiel)
Argus walked down the street a ways with Rose, curious. She seemed strangely intent. He had to admit, that focused look of concentration was rather becoming on her...
He shook off those thoughts. "What was it you wanted to talk about, Rose?"

[OOC: What follows here is potentially rather spoilerific for some of the action going forward. It won't compromise things too badly to read it, but it's being treated as spoiler material just in case...]

Re: Background noise
Sister Rose nodded. "That sounds about right, but there's a little more to it than that." She took the odd artifact from Argus, hefted it a time or two, thought about what she was about to say -- and didn't like it much, because of the deceit it involved. But it had to be done.

Re: Background noise (Tsuiraku-town)
[OOC: Two bits of background noise going at once here. This one is connected to events in the Tsuiraku-town thread, not the Gervasiel one, and I've modified the subject line to show that. /OOC:]
At the entrance to the Tsuirakuan consulate, the evening receptionist's eyes got big when Layla showed her the token. "Most -- unusual," she got out. "If you do not mind, I wish to check the authenticity of this item. Few outside Tsuiraku are in possession of such a --"
"Thank you, but that will be unnecessary, Gyoza," a quiet but commanding voice came from the door at the far (interior) end of the entrance building. Kitaura stepped forward and astonished the receptionist by giving a short but respectful bow to the Sorensen women, who did their best to respond in kind. "So nice of you to come at this late hour," he continued. "If you would be so kind as to follow me..." He turned on his heel as Layla, Faye and Zachary fell in behind him, and as the receptionist sat transfixed in a mouth-open gape.

Re: Background noise
Sister Rose didn't like the answer she felt compelled to give. "We're already at my absolute limit on how many people should know a secret, Argus. I'd really rather not bring him in on it, if we don't absolutely have to. But quite possibly we will have to. You understand the man better than I do. I'll defer to your judgment."
