I’m friends with the friend of the karo and that’s the extent of my even remote contact with the Governor.” Nagisa lets out a long sigh, pushing herself away from the car. “This kind of thing is way out of my wheelhouse.”Yoritomo Ochiba wrote: Sat Nov 29, 2025 6:09 pm "Hey, I've bounced on less sturdy surfaces than this with no lasting damage to the recipient. But, I wouldn't want to mar the work."
She jumps off and then immediately starts poking through Nagisa's tools.
"Cool, that's smart. But scheme?...Hmmm, I think she's been cooking something up. But it ain't easy.I suggested a couple to her, like doing well enough she got sent to oversee something on world? Maybe you could reach out to the Governor? Ayame and I are getting along pretty well. Or do you have a scheme too? Are we all scheming?"

Embarrassing herself in front of the Governor was not something she really wants to do.

Ochiba straightens and turns around beaming, holding her hands up for a double hi-five.
"I got your back, trust me. Just don't try and courtier speak it, be bold...maybe wear something that shows off your arms, tell her she looks great and wham bam you're on your way. Then next thing you know, slow-dancing, romantic music, looking into one another's arms, hunting sharks together, eating noodles together, going to LARP together."
Ochiba clearly drifts off into perhaps some other related fancy.

She seems determined to wait for the hi-five.

There's a wink and an eyebrow waggle.

Wink.

"It's a good day to be at the beach or in air conditioning....or maybe both? Hmmmm, I should see what Yakura-chan is up to."
Another brilliant idea filed away for later.

Nodding seriously.
"And we'll hit up the governor soon. Then, who knows?"

She closes the door and puts on her sunglasses.

And then with a screech of rubber the car flies out of the garage, hops a curb and makes its way onto the road.
