Who: Akechi and Sumire
What: Ghost hunting
When: Mid-October
Where: Prufrock

[ Akechi hadn't been intending to lean too much into this whole Hunter thing, preferring instead to tinker with the idea of establishing himself as a private investigator.

And then the first job he gets involves someone asking him to lean into this whole Hunter thing anyway.

Well, even now he feels somewhat responsible for making sure that she's not left to fend for herself. So shortly before nightfall on a chilly October afternoon he stands in the foyer of his home, pulling on his gloves even though he knows for a fact it's not going to be entirely relevant once they get started. Once Sumire joins him, he greets her with nothing more than a simple: ]

[She looks thoughtful-- when she'd first been in the Metaverse, and really through most of her time in it, she hadn't taken much time to understand how it worked, having too much else on her mind to worry about it. What she did remember, at least...] That's why prop weapons worked as real ones there, right? Because we thought they would, and enemies thought they were real. In the same way, someone thought up a Kuchisake-onna, so one is here now, but not completely to the letter of how stories explain them.

[She hums at the question.] I did try, but I couldn't call her.
