Takes getting creative. [Shikamaru rubs at his chin, agreeing.] My secondary disguise is just about complete now.

[It takes a moment for him to process what Shikamaru means by 'secondary disguise', but the light bulb is obvious when it goes off.]

That's right--you can do spiffy cool magic things, can't you?

[...yes, that is the technical term.]

Ninjutsu.

[redjacketthief]

Yeah, that. I'm only familiar with ninjas from movies, so this should be really cool seeing you in action.

[He's a diehard fanboy at the worst of times, but he knows how to be serious. He quickly recollects himself, grinning.]

Been here for eight months and I'm still not entirely used to the wackiness. This job is going to take a lot of creativity. I hope the others are as on the ball with this.

19th [Action]

[endgames]

Heh. [That's good, because Shikamaru's not sure how to respond to that kind of enthusiasm about this.]

I'd rather hope they don't get dragged into it all.

19th [Action]

[redjacketthief]

That'd be the best thing to hope for, but it's smart to keep the worst case scenario in mind too. The one, Lestrade...his skills can't be that much different from mine. I dunno about the girl.

[A variable, again. He'd need to put more feelers out later.]

The best case is that none of us get taken and that we've just been forgotten, but we all know that's impossible. Their memories are too long for that to happen.

19th [Action]

[endgames]

[He raises an eyebrow, but lets a few of those points pass.]

That'd hardly be the best case, whatever happens. But should we all get taken, our comrades for this are another ninja and a detective, respectively. All in all, their skills would be handy.

19th [Action]

[redjacketthief]

Another ninja, huh? That will be handy...

...Thanks, Shikamaru-san. It feels like our odds have gone up a little now.

19th [Action]

[endgames]

Sure thing. Let me know if you have other questions, though I'd ask them fast. I plan to be in position starting tomorrow.

19th [Action]

[redjacketthief]

I think I'm good for now, actually. Just trying to talk to people and tie a few things up before I get into position myself. I'll remember to ask if something else comes up before then.

Great. [He finishes off his drink with a grin.] Thanks again for the coffee.
