(open) september catchall
Who James Moriarty and...you? Yes, you!
What September log with open prompts!
When Throughout September
Where Everywhere and anywhere
Content Warnings some talk about sex, will update more if needed
(moriarty has two "modes" which is basically just him as a more sociable grad student sort and then his mastermind LARPsona! i'll mark the different "modes" as indicated)
1. SUBSTORY - ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US (nerd mode)
[Hey...are you here checking out this internet cafe with all of its issues, too? Well, someone is already here, dark blue eye makeup and all, putting his hands on his hips as he continues on with some kind of argument with the owner.]
Look. All I want to do is like, put a virus on there. I'm no programmer, but it shouldn't be too hard. If those guys want to steal it, then they'll pay the price. ["I don't want anyone to put viruses on my computers!"] Look, don't you get it? They won't come back if they know that its not worth it, w-what- [And now the owner is just throwing their hands up and walking away.] Come back here! It's totally a good idea! Mathematically sound, in fact! Ugh!
[Don't mind him, he's just going to move to slump in a seat with his head in his hands going UGHHHHHHHHHH]
2. SUBSTORY - BOUNTY HUNTIN' (crime mode)
[Moriarty is playing nice. Of course, he'll be a diligent little worker for the Enma. Sometimes, one has to do exactly what they're told before they can get anywhere - he doesn't have a hold in this world like he did when he was alive, or in that dream of a Singularity, so play nice he must, for the information, at least.]
[Which is what he's doing now, scouring the streets for anyone suspicious, or interesting - even if he recognizes a face or two, that isn't stopping him from walking up, dark eyes narrowed as he says in his most authoritative voice.]
You, there. Tell me what you're doing in these parts.
[And if you're a fellow Enma, he'll simply sniff, unimpressed.]
Are you making any headway in this investigation? One would hope you're not slacking off.
[Mean!]
3. GENERAL - COSMOPOLITAN CALLED THEY WANT THEIR ADVICE BACK (crime or nerd mode, you choose!)
[When he has downtime, a certain someone can be seen browsing through some magazines at a local stall in the Tamamo district - he's bored, obviously. There's a lot to keep his mind on, true, and he is meaning to find out more information, but he, out of curiosity, has picked up what is obviously a trashy romance magazine, complete with 100+ NEW SEX TIPS and IS YOUR BOYFRIEND CHEATING ON YOU? TAKE OUR QUIZ TO FIND OUT stickers emblazoned on the cover.]
[Curiosity killed the catboy, however, and he's making random disgruntled noises as he flips through it, finally stopping at a page - he squints down at it.]
"Cook dinner topless, put a little tomato sauce on your chest, and ask him to lick it off?" [He looks APPALLED.] What kind of nonsense advice is this? Who wrote this?
[And then another flip of the pages, another noise of disgust.]
"Use a ruler to gauge how much his di-" [A look of >:O] That's NOT how you use a ruler!
4. WILDCARD + CLOSED PROMPTS
[holds everyone's hands please please please IF YOU WANT CLOSED PROMPTS PLEASE HIT ME UP VIA DM OR crystal#4450 on discord! I'm also vampirize@plurk! Or just throw a random prompt at this nerd, I'll roll with it!!]

[He says, in his twenties. It's fine. Time is great in Fate/ verse. Memories are also great in Fate/ verse.]
...Hey, enough about the magazines. This will be worth more of my time, yes.
no subject
It should. This will mark our first true work for our respective factions, so let's make it an excellent endeavor.
[That's what she's hoping for at least, but it's all up in the air for now...
Starting with Amelia's lead with the wagashi maker, the information points them further into the redlight district. Walking down the street, the cabaret clubs and gaudy bathhouses are becoming more evident and multiple hosts and hostesses call out to both of them.
"Hey, there cuties! Need more company?"
"Onee-san, you look like you could loosen up!"
"Brother, you wanna hang out with us? We'll make it worth your while!"
Amelia's expression remains neutral but noticeably shifts closer to Ruler whenever she's acknowledged. Instead, she tries to focus on the work at hand.]
Well. I suppose I could ask these people if they've seen the drifter but I also have a feeling our wallets will be lightened if they give us a seat in one of those clubs.
[She's researched the host/hostess rates, damn those premiums are expensive...!!!]
1/2
[However, suddenly, a woman draws close, reaching for his sleeve - Oh, my dear, you clearly need to be with a more experienced woman, yes-? - and he instantly grabs onto Amelia's arm. His expression brightens - he pitches his tone up, ever cheerful.]
Oh, but onee-san is taking real good care of me! Isn't that riiight~
[And he's quickly moving away with Amelia in tow.]
2/2
We do need to be careful. [A little light laugh.] You're right, though. They'd rather bleed us of money here before getting information.
[And that would lead them to nothing. Square one.]
Let's try to find someone who isn't trying to get our attention, yes?
no subject
I'm no great consulting detective, but I can deduce. We can look for street vendors that a scammer would target, ones who have an air of goodwill.
[ There are a few of them, like the carts selling fancy crepes or savory oden for the night workers who need a bite to eat before going back to their shift.]
It'd be harder to scam a host, I'd imagine. They're better at making one spend money then to give it out of the goodness of their hearts.
no subject
[He's eyeing a few of the vendors down the street, now, humming thoughtfully.]
There might be those like that. There always is.
no subject
Oh. I believe she's a type of yokai... A frog wife? Well, anyway, one can see the clouds hanging over her head.
[Looks like the scammer's been this way.]
no subject
[He's still getting used to all these youkai. He may be a Servant and all, but some concepts are still rather wild to him. He trails behind Amelia, but he's curious all the same.]
Rock-paper-scissors on who approaches her?
