[In a picture perfect seiza, Yugamu waves politely to start the video.]

Hello, everyone! I've spoken to a few of you already, but I wanted to try and make a more professional first impression!

[Putting his hand down primly on his lap, and smiling brightly in a way that could not possibly prepare you for what he's about to say;]

My name is Yugamu Omokage, and while I'm a professional assassin, currently, my goal is to become a doctor! If anyone has any tips on how to best further my education, I'd love to hear it! That said, if any of you are personally offended by Dr Spim's conscientious bedside manner like Mr. Silco, I'm happy to provide an alternative, I have lots of hands on surgical experience!

[This absolutely needless shot at Silco is offered completely blithely like it's funny to him, rather than a genuine mean spirited critique of the man.]

The other thing I'd like to ask after is information about the kaiju. I know there's some on public record, but I'm curious to get more personal accounts, particularly if anyone else has tried taking them apart or tested any toxins on them!

In any case, I look forward to working with all of you! My previous monster killing experience was with people my age so I hope to learn a lot here.

What if I'm contracted to kill someone who's harming others? Is that not also a necessary evil?

Individual situations are more nuanced than that, so I don't much like getting into vague moral discussions when there are a lot of factors.

I suppose it all depends on how you feel about taking money for taking a life.

[vivisexual]

I think there's lots of other professions where you're taking lives indirectly. There's some honor in looking the person whose life you're taking in the face as you do it.

But, it doesn't matter much, since I'm planning to switch careers anyway, right?

[the_fourteenth]

Right.

Do you plan on attending a university here in order to study? It can be tough when we get pulled away a lot on missions, but you can do some of it online. Though I imagine medicine will require a lot of hands on training.

[vivisexual]

That's certainly one option, though I still haven't graduated high school, so I'm not sure if they'll take me?

I have plenty of hands on experience already, though, so a less traditional route might suit me better. That's why I'm asking!

[the_fourteenth]

I would talk to LILITH. They can probably help place you somewhere. We do have presumed identities they can work with.

When I first arrived here, they put me in the high school five months before graduation. Too long, if you ask me. The school experience here wasn't for me.

[vivisexual]

Oh? What was it like that you found so interminable?

[the_fourteenth]

You sort of just sit there as the AI blasts lessons into your implant.

It was nice having access to sports teams, though.

[vivisexual]

How boring. Do you at least get to actually interact with your classmates?

[the_fourteenth]

Yes, there were plenty of them.

[LILITH really put him in school to get him some socializing. The jury's still out on whether or not it helped.]

There were things like clubs and sports, so that's something. But I wasn't there long enough to get very involved in many. Just the kendo club.

[vivisexual]

[Socializing him like a shelter dog...]

That's not so bad then! Obviously there's plenty of people my age in our team, but it's always fun to get another chance to make friends!

[the_fourteenth]

That's one way to look at it. But perhaps they can move you right on to university. It would be similar too, right?

[vivisexual]

You'd rob me of the last dregs of my precious youth, Kuzunoha-san? How cruel.

[the_fourteenth]

Well if you want to attend the high school, don't let me stop you.

[vivisexual]

Given I didn't think I'd even get the chance to finish my high school career, I figure I aught to take advantage of it, you know?
