[ The sparrow oni, in her haste, flitting to and fro, not unlike her movements as her feathered-form self, feels the collision keenly, bumping right into a young man. The trill of surprise she lets out is protracted, embarrassingly so for her. ]

Chi—rp!

[ But her instincts kick in, and she quickly steadies herself, with Felix's sharp scolding striking at her ears as soon as her own feet steady. ]

I'm sorry, sir, cheep! I was being too hasty...!

[littleshield]

[ If Felix had been himself while he was back in Fodlan that he'd be bumping into a bird-like person, he'd have told whoever did say such a thing to piss off with such nonsense. But, here he is now, and he is crossing his arms, letting out a huff. ]

Hmph. Right about that.

What were you even trying to do? Chase someone down?

[ Normally, he'd not bother, but he is in the midst of doing so himself, and so that is his first presumption. ]

[tonguecutter]

[ She gives him a neat little bow in apology, though one of her hands stays on the sheathed sword at her side, the latter almost as big as she herself is. ]

That's right. Chirp, I heard that one of the restaurants around here was hit by that lying scoundrel, so I was trying to see if I could catch one of the wait staff to ask some questions. It seems that they're no longer on lunch break, though...

[ Back into the land of the frying pans, in other words. ]

[littleshield]

[ That sure is a blade! Felix's eyes stray to that, first and foremost. ]

Tch, naturally. Well, since we're both looking for that fool, we should work together to hunt him down. Maybe try another restaurant, or someone being serviced at one of them.

Doubtless there were 'customers' who witnessed that daring cowardice that man pulled.

[ And it is a start, he supposes. He hates having to question people but it is the best to get a lead so the smack down can be rightfully executed, so to speak. ]

[tonguecutter]

[ She nods. ]

I agree.

[ And for every partnership, temporary as it may be, there's always something that should come first. The sparrow oni bows courteously once more, as much of a rush as she was in earlier. ]

My name is Beni-Enma, sir.

[ Exactly like the god supposedly in charge of this place. ]

[littleshield]

[ ...Felix at the very least inclines his head a little bit, even if it is most definitely in a bit of his usual, stoic manner filtering on through. But, for him it's respectful enough no matter how slight. ]

Right. I'm Felix Hugo Fraldarius—been here for more than a couple of months by now.

Let's start with here. You take one end of this restaurant, and I will take the other.

[ He may as well take lead on this as he is the one who has suggested their next plan of action, together. Technically, he is in a position of leadership, and though he vastly prefers to lone wolf it, he knows how to work in teams, perhaps slightly better than he did at the academy now.

Anyway, with that brusque introduction and the proposed action delivered straightforwardly, Felix moves on to take to the right side of the restaurant—he considers while snappishly interrogating some of the customers that it is entirely possible they may get another chance at the wait staff. The people here seem to give variations in answers, with some having seen the haggard-looking man, some having not, been too far interested in their drink or food, or...pretending not to know anything but do, even if the information isn't of any worth. In the end, when he's done, he turns to see if Beni-Enma has finished so that they can share what they've learned. ]
