Even after the reboot, I'm still trapped in the wrong anime!

Walk Walk Walk
Get the layout of the town?

Somewhat bored, you decide to walk about town, and see if you come across anything noteworthy.

Places of Interest?
Argus (Fortitude + Travel): 3,4,6,7,10,10 = 5 successes

Do you notice?
Argus (Intuition + Perception): 1,3,3,6,9,10 = 2 successes
Dusk (Intuition + Perception): 2,3,6,8,10 = 3 successes

Are any of Argus' the same as Dusk's?
1,2 = One of them is.

Argus noticed one, Dusk noticed 2, and they both noticed another one, but missed the last.

You wander hither and dither, letting your feet guide you along the way.

You come across a place called "Let's Fighting Love!" Seems like a place to get more punchy, but you don't exactly have an income... Of course Dusk pretends to have no interest, they aren't really the type to try and punch a problem in the face.

Mind you, Dusk says that they've noticed a couple more places that you might have skipped over otherwise: Sanguine Supernova, a nightclub from the looks of it, and some shop called The Fading World Turtle.

Finally, your feet and stomach bring you to a spy themed pizza place called The Cheese Connection. You kind of wonder how that works...

(Silly Vote Incoming!) We can be the obvious distraction while Dusk actually delivers people's orders and listens in to see what they'd have wanted.

Sure, it seems like the best place to allow a kid to work for them.
 
We found the training hall, hangout spot, store and eatery, and missed one thing.

Lets check it our first in case we first have to deal with case of evil robot suits.

I'm curious about the Turtle place too, but gaining funds comes first.

You might as well try getting a job while you're here.

You enter The Cheese Connection, unsure what to expect, but somehow still caught by surprise when it looks like a small park on the inside, complete with benches and fake ducks that people can pretend to feed while making "small talk."

There's one such bunch near the entrance, facing a wall painted to look like a view of a lake, and seated on one end, is a trench coat and fedora clad person. You can't even make out any skin! Maybe they're wearing some kind of body stocking? Any way, you sit down facing the same wall as the person speaks in the most nondescript voice you've ever heard.

"A supermarket or big box store can get you almost everything you need. But if you're looking for something... more... I may know some people that can help." They never look at you, and continue to pretend to feed some fake ducks.

GM/N: Yeah, kinda short.
 
[X] Play along?

In a normal world I would say the guy is an overly dramatic drug dealer. In this world I'm willing to bet he's some sort of villainous henchmen. Or a moron. One or the other.

I'm going to say this now, but all guesses are wrong. Not a drug dealer, not a villainous henchman, and while some might think them moronic, it isn't necessarily true.
 
[X] Speak bluntly?

he sells assassins and assassin accessories!

we're here to get a job selling cheese, nothing more. let's try not to get into international intrigue before we've gotten ourselves set up, please?
 
[X] Play along?
-[X] Join in pretend feeding the fake ducks.

I could go either way, but feeding the fake ducks is essential.
