Open Broadcast / Fanboy Freakout in 5... 4...

[wantedittobeagame]

...whoa. I was a detective...

[It takes Adachi a moment to realize how silly that sounded, and he let out a mental scoff.]

Well, I mean, I am a detective, but damn, I always loved that American crime drama kinda thing. Just... the women and the shoot outs and the gangsters, and--

[He cut himself off, realizing that his reaction... probably wasn't very appropriate, considering what else went down. He let out a sheepish noise, following by a mumble that sounded strangely like, "Can we do that again?"]

But maybe we'll get to infiltrate as pilots! That would be so amazing, we wouldn't just have them but we'll know how to fly them and fight in them too...

[For serious Adachi how can anyone not love giant robots.]

[wantedittobeagame]

I've had my fill of giant robots and falling from them...

S-so I'll pass.

[moredakka]

Wha- ! You've been in a giant robot?? You fell out of it?

[wantedittobeagame]

On a giant robot, yeah.

[moredakka]

What were you doing on one? [Goddamnit Adachi she thought you were a super cool giant robot pilot.]

[wantedittobeagame]

Oh, trying to kill it.

[moredakka]

Wh- wh- wha-

[And Sio has dissolved into incoherence somewhere between admiration and horror.]

[wantedittobeagame]

[Oh man, the yelling was going to start, wasn't it?]

H-hey, I had a good reason! It was trying to kill me and my team.

[moredakka]

You were part of a team fighting giant robots?

[Well she was part of a team fighting space monsters but some things are just unsurpassable.]

On foot?

[wantedittobeagame]

W-well, it was just one. One really big one.

I had to shove my sword through its head and hit it with lightning.

[moredakka]

[Adachi you have just graduated into the Coolest Person She Knows.]

That's AMAZING!

[wantedittobeagame]

Uh... really?

[Because it wasn't really that amazing at the time.]

[moredakka]

You have a giant-robot-killing sword that shoots lightning! HOW IS THAT NOT AMAZING?

[wantedittobeagame]

Ah... well that...

[...well, she wasn't wrong.]

[moredakka]

[Yeah she's on a roll here not even hearing you.]

You took out a mecha on foot! That's Kamina levels of awesome! And you did it for your team, which makes it super heroic!

[wantedittobeagame]

Ah... heh, really?

[Funny, he didn't feel that heroic at the time.]

Ah, well... you know. Just normal for me.

[moredakka]

N-normal? Do you do that kind of thing a lot??

[wantedittobeagame]

Er... ah... well... sorta?

[moredakka]

You can tell me! I'm from another world, so, it's not like I can reveal any strategic secrets, right?

[wantedittobeagame]

Well, last year I did that sort of thing a lot, but... well, there was a whole reason behind it, and we caught the guy responsible, so not so much anymore?

[moredakka]

Congratulations on getting the bad guy!! ... man, it's got to be such a drag doing back to just being a regular person, though.

[wantedittobeagame]

Y-yeah... thanks...

[He still didn't think it was something that deserved congratulations, considering...]

W-well, it wasn't too bad. I am a detective, after all; gotta keep an eye out for these things.

[moredakka]

You're got so many skills, Adachi-san...

[wantedittobeagame]

Eh heh heh... aw, stop, you're gonna make me blush.

[moredakka]

D-do you think you could teach me how to be a detective too? I think I really should...
