@DEFAULT_NAME, video

( there's a low hum at the start of the transmission, though it's hard to tell whether it's due to electrical interference or if it's from the throat of the creature staring down in the feed.

his arms are folded across his chest, and there's a mildly foreboding look on his face. or maybe that's just his default expression. who knows. )


Apparently, teamwork is a focal point of this "job".

( the memory of a playful, sultry voice and hands clasped over his lingers at the edge of his thoughts. persistent, yet far away.

he pushes it aside for now, to focus on this properly, ears pointed forward almost deliberately. )


I've pored through the documents LILITH provided on these... creatures that invade their world. But what of your opinions of them and their ways? What do you find least effective about our current strategies? How do you find our numbers and their chances thus far? I seek these answers as to understand our enemy better from those who have actually faced them, to focus my efforts more effectively. An initiative that benefits both you and the citizens.

( it's a little self-important, but whatever. it's only the truth. )

Considering I was able to hit the last one while working alongside Set... I can assure you they are very easy to harm. I did so with only a knife, to great effectiveness.

They are large, strong, and often have odd abilities, however they are only beasts. They lack cleverness for the most part, and the one that we most recently encountered was the first that showed a sign of intelligence.

It fell too, so its apparent "cleverness" only carried it so far.

An alternative suggestion, if I may.

I am particularly clever, and willing to do what I must. I'm afraid I still live without any powers. Shocking as it may be.

Why not? Doesn't it tell you a great deal, about the nature of these monsters, that even I can do something to them?

You wanted information, after all, and that is very useful information.

You are correct. The two I have encountered had different powers, but as a whole, they are nothing in comparison to the sheer size. That's where the destruction comes from, after all.

Not used to it, are you?

Don't worry, you're not alone. Personally, I would rather do things on my own as well. LILITH isn't accommodating.
zauneyete: (are you for fuckin serious)

LILITH's requested results, you mean?

Just to clarify. We are all working to fight Kaiju, after all. We don't really have the opportunity of choice in the end.

How dutiful of you. Was it what they promised you? Or do you just think the people here deserve your protection?

Hm.

Do you think that is what they face? Or do you think the suffering laid upon them would motivate them to do better, out of spite? I do not think if we turned our backs, that they would not find some way to stand against them.

People have this way of exceeding expectations.
