Even if I were, I do not "misbehave" as you say.

(he huffs, perhaps trying to hide his curiosity. oda largely tries to focus on the road and the traffic, only occasionally glancing up to the rear view mirror to check on sombra.)

(where is she going with this? oda grunts an agreement, largely because he is not sure how to respond. he would say he tries to be a gentleman, but at times his job requires a more aggressive approach.)

Not always. I must dirty my hands on occasion.

(oda nods in agreement, blue eyes catching hers in the mirror briefly. night city is much the way it is---in his opinion---because people lack restraint and turn to violence over the smallest infractions.

he cannot get back to japan fast enough, but they are well and truly stuck here for the time being.)


What is your skill set? Outside of netrunning. (if anything can grab his interest it is discussing strategies.)

(he almost deflects before remembering that they would be allies. it would probably be good to know one another’s strengths and weaknesses. to a degree.)

Mantis blades. Katana. Firearms if needed. I have trained since I was very young.

You will be well protected during the job. (oda does not like to boast; his work will speak for itself. at her further probing question he considers if he wants to answer. it is not necessarily even a personal question but it could lead to some which admittedly puts him on edge.)

Since adulthood, yes. However, I began training in my adolescence.

Arasaka-sama's personal bodyguard trained me himself. It is a great honor to serve Hanako-sama.

(he affirms, again avoiding dilvulging anything too personal. the road begins to narrow and the traffic thins as they descend the hills into north oak. it is harder to see her as the neon glow becomes more distant, only a flash of purple each time they pass a streetlight.)

Lucky? (he questions her simple statement; it sounds as though she wants to say more. but sombra is not wrong, though oda would perhaps use a different word. fortunate.)

Arasaka gave me a purpose, an education, a valuable skillset. I owe much to them. But I also put in the work, more than what is required of me.
arasakadogs: (oda23think)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-09 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
(ah, there is is. her tone does not bother him, though when he glances in the rear view mirror there is a certain edge in his sea-colored eyes.)

Purpose does not always choose us, at times we must determine it ourselves. (a pause, and an assumption:)

You value your freedom, do you not?
arasakadogs: (odaheaddown)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-09 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I am too rigid for mercenary work, (oda readily acknowledges this about himself.) And I suspect you are too much the opposite to find meaning in employment with Arasaka. Our own "luck", as you say, works in different ways.

(they are getting closer to the estate, only a few minutes away.)
arasakadogs: (oda23think)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-09 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
(they arrive in short order, pulling up to a large black gate with an arasaka logo. there is no mistaking it. oda is waved through without issue and heads to park the vehicle and let sombra out.)

Do you have questions before we go in?
arasakadogs: (oda23think)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-10 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
As I said, behave. Hanako-sama is to be respected, though she will not fault you for ignorance of our traditions, (he notes and gestures for sombra to follow him to the front door. at the moment hanako is the only arasaka occupying the estate---otherwise this meeting would not be happening.)

She will likely invite you to stay in one of the guest rooms before the job tomorrow. You should graciously accept.
arasakadogs: (odablush)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-10 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
(that "just for you" gives him the slightest pause, that bristling. oda also feels warmth rise in his cheeks which he has the mentally will away---hm.

oda sets his palm on a biometric reader by the door and it slides open.) This way. Hanako-sama will be upstairs in the study. It will be brief. (the inside of the estate is a sleek combination of blacks and metal and red accents, a generous accent of plants. he ascends the stairs and waves to dismiss the guards at the top.)

Hanako-sama, (oda steps through the double doors into the study, assuming sombra is right behind. he bows respectfully towards the woman, sleek and lovely dressed in white, seated primly at a tea table.) I have brought your netrunner hire. She has passed your tests...adequately.
arasakadogs: (odaheaddown)

[personal profile] arasakadogs 2023-05-10 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
(oda gestures for sombra to follow now that have been announced. hanako remains seated but smiles in their direction.)

Sombra-san, I am pleased you have accepted our task. (the heiress's voice is light and delicate. oda moves to sit kneeling beside hanako at a respectable distance, the cushion opposite them clearly for sombra.)

I wanted to be certain all your questions were answered before tomorrow. I would take on this task myself...were it not such a delicate matter.
