*Watch turns on, and there's our boy -- a slightly lanky, bespectacled guy whose hair is probably the coolest obvious thing about him. He's got a pendant of some sort too; looks like a shield.*

This thing on? Ah, there we go. I figured I should introduce myself right now: My name's Nicholas Reeve, spirit medium and paranormal investigator. Yes, I know how that sounds, but trust me, it's a real thing where I come from. I just figured I'd better introduce myself and get that out in the open so you folks can get to know me better.

*He pauses.*

Or call me a lunatic. Because I get that a lot, trust me. Anyway, yes, I do seances, but it'd be kind of irrelevant for most of you here from what I gather. For now, anyway. A pleasure to meet you all! ...uh, except for the ones I already met, in which case it's more "Hi again."

*Awkward.*

So yeah.

It's nice to meet you, Nicholas-san. My name's Minako Arisato.

I'm curious though, what's it like being a paranormal investigator?

Nice to meet you, Ms. Arisato.

Um... frustrating at times. If you're lucky, it's something simple and can be done within the location of where the person is. If you're unlucky, the case can get a lot more complicated. And if you're REALLY unlucky a spirit just plain doesn't want to talk period. I'm... admittedly a little poorly equipped for that sort of situation.

What do people usually ask you to do? Just talk to the ghosts?

Not always in that polite of language. Some folks seem to think I'm the type of guy who just makes them explode or something. I don't... usually stay employed with those guys long. Eh heh.

Well, ghosts... used to be people. It's probably not too polite to explode them.

Some people see ghosts more as pests or threat than former people, which is the problem. And sometimes just taking the aggressive way out can make things worse.
