The heavy yet, light footsteps of a female could be heard running through the halls of the buildings first floor. One could tell it was female because the heavy panting accompanying them was obvious and loud enough for all to hear. But the hallway looked dead thanks to the fact not a single soul, minus this unfortunate one that was running at the moment, could be see.  If anything? It looked as if all had suddenly vanished, especially given how there was a surprising amount of paper and other forms of office clutter on the floor.

Clutter that the female promptly tripped on with a yell before smacking against the floor of the hallway with a loud smack. Even sliding a bit before coming across an open janitorial closet door that had four figures inside it. Staff members, one male and three females of different races with the male being a leopard Manimal, one the females being hawk Manimal, one human female and the last a female chameleon Manimal. The chameleon woman faded into the background as the female figure who skid up to the door began to recover. She only had a split second to notice the open door and occupants as she gasped out. However, the leopard man would sprint right up to the door and close it just as the female began to bang on said door.

She was about to speak for a moment when she heard some small giggles that made her go stiff in fear as there was also the small sound of metal being dragged. Dragging that grew closer and closer as the female then saw three figures round the corner to look at her. They all had smiles yet, they varied given how one was kind, another seemed joyous with a shut eyed expression and the other smiled like the first, but with sinister intent behind it.

"Ya....Yamete-!!!"

...

(Y/N)'s ears would perk up at the noise in the distance as they then panned in every direction like a set of furry triangular satellite dishes, honing in on a frequency. He received nothing in return as he cocked an eyebrow before ultimately shrugging off the weird sound he had just heard. Chalking it up to janitorial staff cleaning, he continued on his way to what was going to be his third to last visit for today that was with Shishiro Botan. But there was one issue that was minor yet, bugging him rather extensively. And that...was that he was thirsty.

Licking his lips lightly, he would taste what was the crumbs of potato chips that he had eaten earlier in hopes of giving himself a minor boost. Yet he underestimated just how salty they were as he now made his way towards the end of the hallway in hopes of finding a vending machine at the least. But he was thoroughly surprised when saw an entire bar that had a rather warm atmosphere to it given they main lighting was all orange. Even the walls helped solidify this warm feeling since they were primarily made with bricks and some wooden beams. There were also chairs of all kinds, a bit unorthodox, yet that didn't seem to sour the mood given how all attendees were actually calm. Of course, there was also the main bar which was a stark contrast since the bottles of liquor were lit by a bright white light behind the liquor shelves. On the outside, there was a large set of lettering that made it be known what this establishment was truly called...Robel.

(Y/N) only cocked his head in response to the name and the fact he never truly noticed there was such a place within the building. Admittedly, the thought of a cup of whiskey was appealing to say the least yet, he knew better to drink whilst on the job. However...

"Tsukikage-san?"

Much to his surprise, he soon noticed that one of the two figures by the bar was actually A-Chan. Next to her was a man with short green hair and a rather odd purple suit with an orange button up that had smiley faces plastered all over it. His also, while also green, had dark eyeliner that only brought out the rather...serious tone his face carried.

After properly acknowledging the two, Tsukikage saw it fit, and respectful, to walk on over with a small wave as the two returned the gesture. Yet, the male's was a bit more of a two finger salute accompanied by a soft smile whilst A-Chan's was a full wave.
