Who: the idiots who think this will actually amount to anything
When: IC 11/23 onward
Where: Various!
What: The rescue mission Yata, Sheba and co. discussed at the citywide meeting!
Rating/Warning: at least PG because some people swear like sailors
[ Once everyone arrives at the agreed meeting area, the CERES Metro-rail Station at the Residential District, Yata briefs the group on what to do. As discussed in the citywide meeting yesterday, the group will split into six teams that were decided by drawing lots. Everyone should know who they're teamed up with by now. Yata's instructions are simple enough: don't work alone (buddy system!), and if anyone finds anything, report to him. Should the missing arrivals be found, don't wait on anyone's orders. Yata admits that he's not smart enough to call the shots, but if he found who they were looking for, he believes that taking action should be the team's first priority. Anyone is free to protest, but he won't go back on his word.
Then he makes a special shout out to Hiccup and Toothless because look look guys it's a dragon how cool is that okay back to business.
By 9:15 AM, all teams should be on the move! ]

Except no okay that's effective and they're trying not to draw attention to themselves, so he has no complaint about Sousei being sensible. EVEN IF IT'S WEIRD... Like wow, actually sensible people in Cereal?? Sousei is probably one of the very, very few.]
That's pretty careless. [Good work CERES... yet again.
ANYWAY HE'LL WAIT TO SEE if Sousei wants the grand honors of unlocking the mystery drawer!! Otherwise, he'll stick his hand out for the keys...]
no subject
[Yes, he is a funsucker, thank you for noticing. But at least he helps fulfill Cereal's sensibility quota... aka the bar is set very low but he tries to make up for people like Tenka.
Unlock the drawer he will, though, and he pulls it open with little fanfare, and....
.... well those are...really something.
ah...
he's really sick of this place]
no subject
Oz will have to ponder this later, because he's distracted by the kooshballs right away. WHAT THE HECK ARE THESE. THIS IS GREAT. He reaches in and nabs one of the ones with little weird rubbery hair-like things sticking up all over the place.]
What do you think these things are? They feel weird!
[said so cheerfully oz why aLSO HOLDING ONE OUT TO SOUSEI?!]
no subject
Nonetheless, he's just...staring at it, firmly folding his arms to make it very clear he has no intentions of touching one of those things.
Even if Sousei could use a stressball more than anyone else in this joint.]
... I have never seen them before. It seems...unnecessary to lock them up.
no subject
Oh— this one feels heavy enough to use as a weapon.
[But still squishy!! Look at it goosh around...]
no subject
Oz?????]
... It wouldn't be a very efficient one.
[Sousei????]
Enough of this. These are of no use to us. We should continue on.
no subject
But Oz will just pocket the stressball because of course he does, and then moves to close the drawer. Casual theft...]
I'm going to go look in those cabinets over there, then!
[AND IMMEDIATELY NYOOMING OFF TO DO JUST THAT someone stop this child]
no subject
someone get him off this crazy train, he doesn't want this ride.......
He watches Oz nyoom off but doesn't follow, instead remaining by the door, arms crossed. He's realizing that they're not going to find much of worth in here and that's...irritating, but not surprising. For now, there's nowhere Oz can disappear to in this room, so.
He'll wait.
Why does he feel responsible for this hyperactive child...]no subject
Anyway, he tries to open a few drawers. One's filled with paperwork that he briefly rifles through, but there's nothing interesting in it, of course. A drawer at the top is locked though, and after pulling on it fruitlessly a couple of times, he glances back over his shoulder to Sousei.]
Do you think we should try getting this open?
[It might be more stressballs...]
no subject
Sousei gives it a brief glance, but a quick look around the desk doesn't turn up any keys (twice in one day would be too much, wouldn't it...)
So he lifts his sword, still sheathed, and brings the hilt down on the side of the drawer, visible from the side of the desk.
It knocks it right off its hinges, but also clearly snaps the lock. Carry on.]
We may as well be thorough.
no subject
[Yes. Yes, Sousei is the muscle of this operation... He steps to the side in case any lock or drawer pieces come flying at him, but when that's obviously not the case, it's ONWARD TO INTREPID EXPLORING.
Oz stands on his toes to peer into the drawer.]
—Oh.
[It's a collection of tiny glass animal figurines... Which Oz promptly starts carding through to make sure they're all in one piece after that lock destruction!!] I hope we didn't break any...
no subject
He's not exactly enchanted, though. Honestly, it's more that--]
Did anyone actually perform their job here?
no subject
And luckily none of them were broken, so he shuts the cabinet again with a sigh.]
They probably aren't spending their time playing with them or admiring them if they're all locked up though, right?
[But that begs the question why are they here at all]
no subject
They should not have something so pointless in their workplace at all.
[workplaces are for work, and this is the workplace of a slacker...... or a bunch of slackers.
sousei is practically radiating disapproval here.]
no subject
Maybe they have nowhere else to keep it! Someone at their apartment could be afraid of little glass animals, so they have to keep them all locked up tight away in a place where they won't be seen.
[He's making up weird backstories for employees, someone stop him... Or he'll stop himself, pointing out over Sousei's shoulder.]
Let's go to that room next!
[STUCK AS INVESTIGATION PARTNERS.]
no subject
He narrows his eyes.
And slowly turns to look at that door.
.... ... ...god dammit this is why he's here, though, it'd be even dumber to not investigate.]
...Fine.
[lead the way, hyperhair.]
no subject
But he'll cheerfully flounce off past Sousei and toward the door as soon as he gets the agreement. STUCK IN INVESTIGATING HELL WITH OZ how does it feel friend.
This part of the investigation may be short-lived though, since the outside door to this particular room is locked, which Oz finds out when he tugs the handle a little too hard and jams it.]
Oops—! [Oops. He doesn't even know if Sousei will be able to pull his lock-breaking magic here...] ...Well, we probably shouldn't make it too obvious that there were people in here looking around, anyway. I'll go find a window instead!
[He's already heading off?!]
no subject
This feels terrible though thanks for asking... there's so much energy and genki here and Sousei doesn't!! want it!!!
But nonetheless, he.... has to come along. Because Oz is clearly hopeless. Like. That must be an all time new record for failing at an investigation.
Slowly, Sousei arches an eyebrow at that, but he doesn't really want to break down a door, he's not Tenka--
Wait what]
A--
[window???]
Hold on. [STOP, SLOW DOWN....]
no subject
But he will at least pause in his outward jaunt, even though he's like, basically already almost to the doors so he can go outside and loop back to check the exterior of the building...]
Hm? Do you want to look for the window instead?
[Of course Sousei doesn't want to look for the dang window, but Oz sure can't fight back the urge to gently bully when he's presented with such an obvious target.]
no subject
[don't be a moron, Oz!!! He's no interested in being trolled by a pipsqueak like you!]
There is no need to go to such lengths when we have yet to turn up anything of use here, and there are still more rooms to search.
[The possible net gain of this venture doesn't make it worth it......]
no subject
Still! If it's locked, there might be something good in there, right?
[CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN.
Or they might just find more kooshballs and figurines.]
no subject
No.
[Oz...they just unlocked two separate drawers, and what did they find...]
There is no guarantee. It would make more sense to explore a wider area than waste our time trying to get into this one room.
no subject
Either way, he seems to be considering what Sousei says. Then, with a sigh of resignation:]
Fine, fine - I guess you have a point. —But! We'll come back to check this one when we're done, right?
[RIGHT. Not taking no for an answer, apparently?! He's already moseying off before even hearing Sousei's response... Where is he even going, we just don't know.]
no subject
............... what a punk!! Sousei follows slowly, expression slowly flattening further. This isn't what he wanted out of life at all.]
I fail to see why you are so excitable about this.
[SLOW DOWN]
no subject
Hm? Does it seem like I am? [Sousei hasn't seen him when he's truly excited... That's when the Moron Clash will turn into the Moron Explosion.]
