well i saved your number under reporter boy, sorry
takaomi right?
meet me in about 20 minutes
[there's an address attached! it's for a place that tends to stay pretty crowded, but not without a few tables that are more tucked away; chuuya's grabbed one of those, where they'll still be able to hear each other but there's plenty of background noise to drown them out to others. shady habits die hard.]
[fingerguns, well he'll get the same info twice if it works out that way!! it's fine.]
Sounds like they call themselves 'Equalizers', which if you ask me is a pretty stupid-sounding name... anyway, we didn't get a lot out of her, but she sounded pretty unhappy with every kingdom's leadership. Talked shit about all three, but I could only get part of it confirmed with my other sources.
[just taking a sip of his drink, there, because of course he came prepared.]
Turns out Saiside already knew about them, and never said anything.

Could just be that he's the only one they managed to get? If Saiside had an idea, maybe Grande had better security. Heard they had plans to put a spy network together, but... they haven't bothered to actually do it, so who knows how much they actually knew.
[he exhales a sigh, there, shakes his head.]
I did hear something about the gala being a target before it happened, but nobody in my circles knew what it was a target for... I don't know, maybe they managed to get the heads-up too and put it together, if they already had an idea these guys existed. But they didn't give the same warning to anybody on the Holmeshelm end. That's all speculation, though.
Well, knowing it could be a target really isn't a lot of information to go on... and if only a few people knew about it, that's not really enough to put up any sort of perimeter for such a large event.
[ would it have helped to get the info out more? yeah, but that's also risky as well, so taka can't really be too annoyed about it. ]
Yeah, especially with no idea what might be coming.
[which is partly why he didn't really try... the other part was where the info came from, but. it is what it is.]
The one we got mentioned a couple other things I haven't been able to follow up on, though. Something about a plan Harry has that she thought wasn't solid enough to go anywhere-- no idea about what-- and she seemed to think Bangtan's going to get suppressed before they can actually introduce an independence bill? Guess that's something they were working on.
[he doesn't really pay attention to Idoll politics,]
[you know i could easily just refuse to tag you until you tell me and here i am, BEING NICE
but anyway, chuuya just leans forward a little to rest his chin in his palm, elbow propped on the table.]
Maybe. Shit, I don't know, I'm not sure what exactly they're going for. If they just want to get rid of the current leadership, it's just going to cause more problems...
[and with a roll of his eyes--]
Not to mention interrupting everything, at this rate. We all put too much work into getting here to let these assholes ruin it for us.
Yeah, no kidding. I've told a couple people besides the one I was with, no idea if they've passed it on to anybody... but I haven't heard shit from anyone else so far, so I can't help you there.

[ chuuya you suspicious fuck
but he will start to head that way then it's fine. when he gets there, he scans the area for a second before spotting chuuya and going to the table. ]
Yo.
no subject
[so part of his hair looks like it's been burned off and it's now his canon hairstyle, that's a thing. so are the bandages around one arm. he's fine!]
Found a few things out, thought someone like you might be able to do something with it.
no subject
but at least taka doesn't ask about it (yet), and instead just sits down. ]
Mm. What did you find?
no subject
[sometimes you just yeet off and things happen!
a tilt of his head, there-]
Have you heard much about them already, or what else has been going on?
no subject
[ aka i have an ongoing thread so i can't say anything for certain at this moment but maybe we can get back to this at a later point in this thread ]

[ he taps his chin, frowning. ]
I wonder why go for Harry then... maybe because it'll be the easiest to cover up since there's already shit around it?

They're probably going to strike again then, huh...

It's hard to herd people together when we might get overheard.

[is it at all surprising that he's for this?
he tilts his head curiously, though.]
Don't tell me somebody already tried.
