Yes, indeed. He is an angel of death, after all. A weapon that would bring down the judgement of those above him with the blade of the knife or the bullet of a gun. And it just so happens that someone deemed it fitting to eliminate a certain business taking place in the school he was currently attending.

Of course, this job asked for subtlety, and that precisely was why he was here now, approaching what would be his target with his usual empty expression.

“Dereko, sorry to bother you right now, but the teachers asked me to hand these out to everyone.” Of course, there he was with his teachers’ pet front as he holds out a single sheet of paper with an empty form.

“We were planning a festivity for the holiday season due to numerous requests, so the teachers wanted to let everyone make a suggestion or two, cue the form. If you have any questions, I’ll be here to help you out.”

It seems the gesture is genuine and harmless enough but.. Only time will tell.

“You’re certain about this?” was the second-to-last thing Chishiko had said to her.

At this, Matsuko had scoffed. “It’ll be fiiine. I know exactly where I’m going!” Her hand-waiving was accentuated by the crisp jingling of her charm bracelet- something a fan had given her. She wasn’t allowed to wear it out when she was with Chishiko, but all by herself? Well, she wasn’t too certain about that. either. She rarely went out by herself. “Besides, I have Sucker with me!”

The little Octarian in question perked up as it’s name was mentioned. Truth be told, “Sucker” was more a title than a name, simply because there were too many “Suckers” in the royal army for them to feasibly all have names without any of them repeating. But, this Sucker was one of the Amatanis’ body-guards, apprenticed under their main charge, and the only Sucker there was around. So, “Sucker“ he remained.

“He’s got the GPS on him. Worst case scenario, he’ll call Shelf.” Their 'main charge’. “Not that I think it’ll be an issue, though. This guy seems really sweet!”

Chishiko mummbled something about a lot of bad people they had know initially being sweet, which was met with a sour pout. She relented, giving her sister a wave. “Alright then. Have a good time?”

“I sure will!” Matsuko called as she left their lodging, just barely giving Sucker enough time to dart through the door as she closed it behind her.

The door that Matsuko and Sucker stood at lead to a modest little house in a grandly large estate, which Matsuko wasn’t too certain how to interpret. The land implied “rich”, while the small home situated farther back into the property implied “traditional Inkling”, which... wasn’t that also supposed to be small, though? She peered over Sucker and looked at the GPS- no, this was the right spot.
