Weird name. [You’re hardly one to talk, Bulleta!! There’s no malice behind the statement, though. She says it as casually as one might remark about the weather.] You must be the foreign guy, then. Hm~ [She looks him over, a hint of amusement in her expression.]

Well, nice to meet you, I guess~

[A couple of surly-looking youkai appear through the doorway, carrying a dark colored, heavy-looking box (or maybe it’s more like a chest?) between them. One speaks up:]

”Greetings. Now commencing security and acquisition protocols.”

Ehhh, do you really have to say that every time?

[They do. The box is placed on the ground and several locks are deftly done away with. The interior is thickly lined. The silent one moves to retrieve Lalli’s bundle from the desk while Bulleta steps forward to give up her basket’s contents to the other. They handle them carefully with gloved hands.]

So how many did you find?

[She’s talking to Lalli again now despite not looking his way.]
