-We find Reimu having just completed a work out in the gym, towling himself off and looking quite chiseled and sweaty. Which is really weird because usually this guy is sleeping all day and inhaling the snack cabinet in the lounge. But hey, it's that time again, after all...-

I always get this itch when things feel like they're about to get hectic. Like I can just detect incidents. It's a good instinct for someone in my line of work to have.

I'm guessing this incident with these "U-Men" is going to become our problem pretty soon. So I'm making it official. Team Hakurei is recruiting.

You'll have access to myself, Marisa Kirisame, and Flandre Scarlet for training purposes, as we're the original team. Or at least what's left. So there's that. But for the most part I want to know who's willing to get out there and actually learn the trade of the X-Men.

Serious inquiries only.

Is this a gym membership advertisement or a team recruitment video, Reimu?

[Flandre sounds more amused than anything else.]

[musou_tensei]

But the gym's free. -RIGHT. OVER. HIS HEAD.-

[jolie_aile]

[Reimu. Reimu please.]

Couldn't this have waited a few more moments?

[musou_tensei]

Why bother? I'd have forgotten to make it then.

[jolie_aile]

Fair enough, then.

[Though she still has to stifle one more interfering giggle before continuing; Flandre was more serious about this part.]

Though...now that it's official now, I should probably think about code names again, shouldn't I.

[Pause.]

Mainly that I have no idea for one.

[musou_tensei]

I'm no help there. I just inherited mine.

[jolie_aile]

Ah, right.

[A rather small but still grumbly sigh.]

No ideas at all?

[musou_tensei]

What's the first word that comes to mind for you?

[jolie_aile]

Um.

Red? Red something.

[musou_tensei]

... Big Red. -SHE CAN'T NAME HERSELF AFTER SODA, REIMU.-

[jolie_aile]

[Grumbling intensifies!]

I'm not that tall!

[musou_tensei]

Tall enough that it's really noticeable when you're standing with me and Marisa.

[jolie_aile]

[The microphone catches a chiming sound as Flandre's wings bristle up--before she realizes what she's doing and stills the noise.]

I can't help that!

[A slightly longer pause as she continues to get her temper back under control where it belongs.

Humor would help, right?]

...unless I get you both stools.

[musou_tensei]

That'd be a little cumbersome to carry around all the time.

[jolie_aile]

We could get whoever you called in to do that.

You didn't scare them all away, did you?

[musou_tensei]

Why would you think I'd scare them away?

[jolie_aile]

...you didn't actually, did you?

[musou_tensei]

No! I mean... I wasn't gentle with any of them, but this is pretty important. I need to separate people who just want to play hero from people who are serious about this.

forgot a thing and it was bothering me fff

[jolie_aile]

I see.

[All the giggles and grumbles are gone now, replaced with more serious pauses.]

...gloves off, then.

[It's always been a more significant term to Flandre, what with having built-in crampons on her hands. But the sentiment was similar.]

[musou_tensei]

Yeah... I don't want to be too hard on them, but we have to be serious about this. I don't want some kid out there dying on my watch.
