Bit of that kind of work on my dance card. But no. Figured that since I've been using my skills as a detective to look into the strange occurrences that happen around the city here, may as well make it legit. Got a license for it and everything.

Impressive. With how things are in this city, I imagine there will be plenty to keep you busy. [ Both because of how regular 'strange occurrences' are and how useless the Requiem PD seems to consistently be. ]

[itreachesout]

Definitely don't have to worry about gettin bored, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it impressive. Not yet anyway. It'll be impressive once I can find any satisfying answer to even a single question this place poses.

In the meantime, I have a contract to patrol at some party, and I'm looking for someone's missing pet.

The coffee helps.

I fear we'll all be waiting a while for satisfying answers unless we're able to manifest them ourselves.

[ And sadly Mara's normal influence on Reality seems to not be in effect here or be extremely diminished, much to her annoyance. ]

It sounds as if another coffee order might be needed in the near future.

[ Miller's usual self-deprecating language did take a slight turn, even if he'd done it on accident. "once I can find anything"... not "if". The whispers in the back of his mind won't accept anything other than the task completed — the case solved — and that suits Miller just fine. Even though he sees the frustrating road ahead. ]

I fear you're right. And since I can't wait around idly for them, that's why I'm gonna go looking. Even if it's fruitless at first.

Keeping the coffee stocked is a good plan.

Hopefully your looking doesn't lead to too much trouble.

I'll have to make that visit sooner than later then, so I can be certain of your new favorite to order.

[itreachesout]

Knowing my luck, especially the way it's been here so far, I'm sure it'll eventually lead to a lot of trouble. Hopefully it'll be something I can get back out of.

My door's always open. Whenever's convenient for you.

[bomblogic]

I'm sure it will be. You needn't rely only on yourself to get out of trouble after all.

I will be sure to use the door and not a portal, I promise. [ She'll try to relegate that for emergencies. ]

[itreachesout]

[ He's still getting used to the idea of not having to do everything alone. Her words actually surprise him enough to delay his response. ]

But I have to admit, the portal is pretty cool.

[ Emergency use only is also fine. ]

[bomblogic]

[ Mara thinks nothing of the small delay, and lets herself have a small smile at his eventual reply. ]

Well then, maybe I'll still use it on occasion.

I look forward to trying your new favorite coffee.

[itreachesout]

And I look forward to sharing it with you.
