The Search for Q/The Detective's Unyielding Resolve

This takes place shortly after this comm post. Info for what this post is for is here.

Those who saw Shoutarou when he was on the hunt before for Wakka's ball might note a somewhat similar look in his eyes this time - but a great deal more focused. He's out for information, and is once again combing the ship, but there's a greater urgency in his actions and his words.

In fact, he's skipping introductions for the most part. If he sees you're not too busy, he'll all but grab you - "If you're free, I'd like to ask you some questions."

"Got it!" And lo she began to look around, poking her head and touching things. "You know, I haven't come here in forever. I just go eat in the sensoriums now."

"Me either, though I tend to take mine back to my agency,"

He continues his investigation, but doesn't seem to be turning up anything so far...

"This search sucks!" Lash declared a few minutes later. She wasn't known for her patience, and just looking around giving out no results was making her jittery.

"Don't let the frustration get to you," Shou snapped. "You lose focus, you make mistakes - you make mistakes, the client suffers for them."

A huff.

"And if they outlive their usefulness to our target, then there's no telling who'll be next."

"Yeah yeah yeah," she huffed right back. "Hawke was always telling me about the frustration stuff." But Lash was very vocal about everything.

"Anyway if I had clients, it would be for inventions, not detective work."

There's a pause before he answers again. "Apologies for being short. Just stressed out about this whole thing." Querl being grumpy and snippy about him taking too long hadn't helped, either.
