"Haise Sasaki, Rank One ghoul investigator..." She mumbles softly, ruffling her [h/c] hair gently. Ever since she met the airy-voiced man, she couldn't get him out of her thoughts. Of course she didn't believe in something as "love at first sight", but maybe it was real? What else could explain her emotions right now? Nothing else made any sense- she just met him, why would she like him? Maybe it was the smell of coffee he omitted, or maybe the way he spoke? "This is so dumb!!" The [e/c] eyed girl complains, childishly pounding her hands on the ground, despite knowing having a tantrum would solve nothing at all.

A ghoul and a human? Please, that's practically taboo among the ghoul species! How could she fall in love with a human of all things? Well, maybe he wasn't a human? The ghoul wasn't too sure about his. He surely didn't smell human, but he didn't smell like a ghoul either. It was a very weird scent to have, one that she had never experienced or studied up on before. But of course, despite her obvious feelings, which she probably was subconsciously trying to avoid recognizing, she concluded that she liked his scent. Yes, that is a perfectly believable and normal explanation for this situation.

She jumped up at a loud knock at her wooden door, who would be here? It's literally...(the girl glances over to her digital clock) 3:23 a.m.! Assuming it had to be important, [f/n] lunged to open the door, flattening her shirt so she didn't look like a slob. Her hand shook slightly, realizing she hadn't had her daily dose of coffee. Despite this fact, however, she managed to bring herself to open the door to find her favorite, and the only investigator she knows. "S-sasaki-san! What are you doing here so early?" [f/n] asks, giving the man a kind smile. "I apologize for being here at such an early hour, but I needed to ask something." Haise replies, returning the smile. The girl quickly glanced up and down, examining his wears, to see that he had not been wearing his CCG uniform, but a comfortable looking tee shirt and sweatpants. "Come in, come in." She urges, opening the door wider for him to enter.

The two sit across from eachother at the table, sipping coffee.  "So, what did you need to ask?" The quiet girl had asked, taking another sip of her coffee. Haise's finger's twitched awkwardly, and he let out a soft sigh.

"I need your help."
