Even though Hanako was a freelancer now, Lady Scandal articles still were published in the Metropolitan magazine, they were just less frequent as before the incident of last year and so on. However, that did not mean that her normal blogs were simply quiet, Hanako did manage to find time and write smaller blogs than she did before, once in a while a bigger one came around and once in a while her former boss called her with some interesting new information. "Did you know," He said a few days ago, "That the pro-hero Hellhound has an agent?" No, but it was fascinating, she had not met Hellhound before, she only heard about her thanks to the news and thanks to Haruuhi's internship with the woman but that was about it. Though when she researched any further she could not find the definite word of an agent but the rise in her popularity and numbers were definitely starting ever since she hired a Niso Gottschalk in her mids and Hanako had decided to give it a try. Interviewing heroes had been very difficult, she had literally tried to ask Nimue who had refused, her eyes had now been on Mikhail Orlov, for multiple reasons but she did not dare ask Elena after all this time.
But the question was who this mysterious Niso Gottschalk was and her boss managed to contact Hellhound's PR system or however it worked, Hanako did not ask any more questions, they had set up a meeting place in one of the hip new cafes in Tokyo which had private rooms that could be reserved and she would work on her image. No longer did Hanako lie about having an assistant, no the assistant was fired because well she was too human, she could not keep her distance from people as she was afraid. Now it was Scandal herself that would go out there. With her expensive blonde wig, the Korean Make-up she followed, changing her nose, jawline and so on, fixing her glasses and just a lot of things, all that remained true were her blue eyes. So she would be there at about half past 3, right before their meeting time and she would simply grin at a few people staring at her. Yes, the column now had her picture, she had absolutely nothing to be afraid of anymore, so to say.
She would take a seat in the easy chair of the room, which was simple room covered in glass with patterns on it to make sure not everyone could look in when you were seated, but it was nice and cosy and there was a bell that would inform the waitress or waiter that you wanted to order something if they were not around, this was a nice place, she might use this more often. Now there was nothing to worry about, this would bring her more information about the pro-heroes and she hoped to get a little bit of dirty details about Hellhound or the whole system from this man. She was thrilled to meet him.

Niso had been running Hellhound's more public side of the operation pretty casually. Afterall it wasn't like he needed to treat it like a full time job. He'd stuck to her offices the first few weeks but when he made it clear he could work from home he'd done so. It wasn't exactly like it took no effort to hold his constantly shape-shifted form of 'Mr Gottschalk' so being able to do it from home saved him a lot of stress. He just had to make sure he shifted his vocal chords a bit whenever he picked up the phone. What he hadn't really expected was for someone to call wanting to speak to him more directly. Typically he just got a message when Hellhound was on the scene of a take down so that he could make sure some trusted reporters could get first dibs on the scene, getting a request for him personally was... definitely unusual. He had to debate for a while if it was worth any sort of risk. On the one hand he was already pushing his luck tricking Hellhound into working with him. A more genuine reporter... well damn. They might actually bother to do some background checks... then again if they were just looking to get a tasty scoop on the role he played, they probably weren't looking for anything mroe than a bit of surface level info. And if he got some credibility behind him he could refer to in the future... Okay... this could work.~ On the day of the get together Niso didn't shapeshift till he was just around the corner. Resting the briefcase he used against the wall, wearing a fairly baggy suit and tie, he worked slowly on adjusting his cells and growth hormones till he was back to his usual gottschalk height. Of course the conservation of mass was a thing, so he still looked pretty lanky, and while the suit fit better lengthways, it definitely still looked a little big on him. Really though it was hard for someone so slim to look like anything fully fit. A quick scoop of his suitcase and he'd slip across to the cafe, a fancy little place he could never see his usual self coming to unless he just wanted to smash it up. He'd look around for a bit, taking in the faces and generally looking quite nervous and out of place, adjusting his tie idly. All an act of course. He did actually need to look to find who he was meeting but while his agent cover could have a bit of a smooth talking habit, most of the time he purposely played up his nerves so any panic he displayed didn't seem out of character. Eventually, locking onto a table out the ways of everything else, he'd cautiously peer over to the woman holding it, waving with his free hand. "Sorry er... pardon the intrusion. My name's Niso. I don't suppose you're the woman who's supposed to meet me here today?" [505 words] |

Hanako was waiting, she had the door open so the PR agent could find her rather easily, though she would not entirely know how her boss had send the invitation to such a man but she would see. The now-blonde moved a hand through her long hair and adjusted her glasses, it was almost weird to wear glasses in public again, she mostly did it at home or if she was working late at the office of the gym. She had no idea why she felt so giddy but at the moment it was just simply that and she would take a deep breath and look up when she heard footsteps coming her way. Her neutral face looked anything but happy but she quickly gave a small smile when the person came to ask if she was the right person and introduced himself with the right name. "Yes," she stood up, "Nice to meet you, Niso-san. I am Lady Scandal but you can call me Nanami." Sometimes her sister was useful for something, but she smiled kindly and hoped a man like him wouldn't be scared of by such a name, but she was sure that the public had not forgotten her, though they might have not spread rumours enough. She was going to be more direct in this job. "Please take a seat?" She invited him to sit on the opposite of her table and went to close the door and sit down herself and made a little bow over the table, "Thank you so much for coming."
She had to make sure that the person was doing okay before spamming him with a fire round of questions, so she would do fine, "Do you want to order something to drink or eat first? I already ordered an apple juice." She said trying to show a happy persona and a curious one, though Scandal was not like that before but that's what a sabbatical can do for you, so to say. She should build up a nice atmosphere before they went to talk about the details of his job and hopefully some info about what was going on with Hellhound and who knows maybe she could interview that woman some day, she should definitely try to get her hands not only on the illegal people, but they were so easy to reach. She should listen to Elena and work a little more legal, for her own sake too.

“Ah, Nanami. Right.” Tucking his briefcase under his arm, a nervous habit given he could have just held it in his other hand, he offered his hand across to shake as the woman stood up. Both just a naturally quirky tick of his nature and the more ‘out of place’ he naturally seemed by putting on a nervous façade the easier it was for him to pass as someone who seemed just a little quirky at best, rather than… ya know, a secretly murderous psychopath. He greeted her with a mildly vigorous but still polite handshake, assuming of course she took the offer to begin with. Being offered the opposing seat he rested his briefcase beside it and moved in to take his seat, one of his knees nervously bobbing up and down and twiddling his thumbs as he took in his surroundings, both just keeping up the act and also making sure he knew the lay of the place. He didn’t recognize the name, Nanami OR lady scandal, but heck, even having ‘scandal’ in your name made him worried this was some gossip columnist or something looking for the dirty details about Hellhound. Normally he’d happily give such details buuuut… he was still earning her trust.
“Don’t worry about it. I mean hey if I leave a good impression than that’s more good PR for Hellhound right? Gotta make sure I’m doing the best I can for her. Have you seen the work she and her hounds do? Great stuff.~” His eagerness shined through a little, putting out the air that he was an enthusiastic fan who’d landed a dream job of making a hero look good to the public, but ultimately he tried to resist ranting on if he could help it. When offered the chance to order a drink, he’d be caught off guard, humming an awkward ‘uhhhhh’ sound as he grabbed a menu… oh they had those thick strawberry milkshakes here. He’d need that. Lots of carbs to burn to keep up his disguise. He’d catch a waitress as they passed. “Hi er, sorry to bother you, can I just get one of those really thick milkshakes on your menu with like, plenty of whip cream? Thanks.~”
Probably seemed like a childish order, but hey, he tried to make his ‘persona’ similar to himself in some ways. Made it easier to fake. Waiting happily on his drink he’d give a few light taps of the table t a beat in his head before chiming. “So. How can I help you la-er. Nanami.~”

The whole thing changed, she would change it more if that was better to her wish, she did not know how to comply to it but it was just something to think about when the days lengthen again and this whole new perspective was happening. She took a deep breath, softly, almost inaudible. The thing was that for her everyone could still be an enemy because pro-heroes and their potential PR manager would probably still be against vigilantes. This man seemed nervous, which was good, Hanako took his hand softly and shook it before offering a seat and sitting down again herself. His handshake had been a little bit different but she was sure he simply had practised with how many hands this man probably had to shake. "Exactly, it is such a fascinating system, I am not too familiar with Hellhound, I have heard of her, hard to miss of course especially after Shinagawa," but she heard more snips out and about, also Haruuhi had gone on an internship with Hellhound but it was hard to say that considering she wasn't representing Haruuhi's stepmom at this stage. She liked how he was eager, trying to make a good impression for her, not entirely about himself, Hellhound must have found a nice one out there. She raised her eyebrow slightly when the order was made but smiled, it seemed like something a kid would order, especially the plenty of whip cream but why would she care. "Well, if you don't mind to talk a bit more about your job, it's apart from the fascinating heroes already so interesting, I was informed by my boss considering you are the first well hero PR manager or should we already call it an form of agency, can you tell me how you or Hellhound got up with the idea?" She should be laying her groundwork carefully but he seemed to be enthusiastic about the hero and it was in no way her intention to bring shade towards Hellhound, no, Hana wanted to understand this system and his job a lot better. |

“I know right!?” He chimed with some excitement. In truth it wasn’t entirely fake either. In Niso’s mind the idea of heroes was a chaotic one and he loved it. The idea of people using powers gifted to them by a happenstance of birth to deal out justice was… so unusual that he couldn’t help but love it. In their right mind anyone with such power should use it for their own gain, but to have a mind designed to use it for the aid of others? Truly a chaotic concept in his eyes. Of course, he hated the rules and regulations that surrounded it, but ‘Gottschalk’ could put up with that with a smile on his face if it meant heroes even got to exist in the first place. “I mean it’s still working out the road bumps and all that but to be able to see people like Hellhound, Witch doctor, Yellow jacket, all working with police forces at such intense moments in the history of our country? Oh I’m just glad to be alive in this Era, truly blessed.~”
Okay, maybe he was hamming it up a bit, but his cover identity waaaas meant to be a hero nut who just worked for Hellhound for the pleasure of doing so. Really helped people dismiss him as just a simple minded doof without looking into him too deeply…
With his order made, and milkshake flavoured fuel incoming in time, he turned his eyes back to the woman opposite him. Having gotten a chance to talk about heroes he had an excuse to put a smile on, which was much more natural for him. Sure he was still in his early days, still nervous about his act being noticed or caught out, but with a smile on his face he felt muuuuuch more at ease, and was thankful for the training he’d forced on himself to make his smiles seem far less… psychopathic, in nature.
“Oh well it was actually me who brought the idea to Miss hellhound. She was initially just hiring general office staff to help with the paperwork. What with managing herself and basically a small swat team of misfits it really adds up and she needed an extra set of hands. Seeing an opportunity I took an interview and tried to pitch her an idea I’d had budding for a while. The whole ‘hero manager’ thing!~ of course I’m glad she went for it but to show up for an interview trying to pitch a whole other job to your potential employer, bit risky on my part I’d say, ehehehe..~”
Very risky really but… it had all worked out. “As for what my job entails. I mostly just try to make her look good. I don’t really like how negatively quirkers have been seen by the media and by… well, politicians, what with the quirk tax and all. Even if it doesn’t personally effect me I wanna make sure I do my part to put a positive light on things. Mostly I just try and get here some nice camera shots without interfering with her job, make sure the news teams show up to the big crime busts, that sorta thing ya know?”

She could not help but give a soft laugh, this was because Niso's display of his Gottschalk persona happened to be very well. She believed in his excitement and nodded immediately when he gave some of the names that she knew, she should definitely put more time in getting to know Hellhound. Witch Doctor saved her kid and Yellow Jacket on many occasions apparently, saved her husband. She could not help but smile, her normal facade of Lady Scandal had already been destroyed months ago, so it did not matter, she could be just herself in her eyes. Of course, she tried to be a little different that came with the wig and the name but still, she did not have to be that bitch anymore. She felt enthusiastic to talk to this person, mostly also because it had been Lady Scandal and thus Hanako's job to try and make positive words about heroes and the hero school considering people were being bitches about it. So she would try to make this interview work but be slow and smooth and just like a real conversation. She held up her notepad (like the literal on paper one) to show she would take notes when he talked.
So he started the idea to Hellhound, now that was interesting. Oh, it happened that she had a staff job going on. She nodded, and she could not help but smile again when he said it was a risky part. "That I can imagine but the results are here, you got the job. Your pitch must have been a good one." Was Hellhound a patient woman and open for changes in that case? Something to either ask or figure out later. "I love your job every second that you talk about. I think it should not be overlooked how important it is, I myself try to fight the issues that the news and government has with heroes and the hero school. So I am glad someone like you is thinking the same and doing it, I bet your job is better at it than mine." Hm, maybe it was becoming a trend, and she could praise this guy for it and it would give more heroes such a person and would entail better news spread about heroes. Better advertis- okay calm down Hanako, this was one man, he couldn't just PR all heroes. "Really, really fascinating." She answered.

Niso chuckled a little as his potential pitch to Hellhound was complicated. Honestly he was feeling a little pride in that. It had been a BIG risk. He’d put himself right into the hands of a rather powerful hero, right in the middle of their territory and leaving himself pretty vulnerable given Gottschalk, unlike Niso, had all his organs in the correct, vulnerable places. He could have been so dead… but he pulled it off, and his façade very nearly broke as his pleasant smile was briefly shifted into a deeply prideful one, but it thankfully lasted only a second. “Oh I was a little nervous at the start but… I think my passion got through to her, and I tried to emphasize I’d never be stepping on her toes. Afterall she’s the hero. I want her to be able to do her job. I just wanna make sure the people love her while she does it ya know?” He lifted his eyes back up to Lady scandal, a softer smile on his lips, wondering if he could envoke some empathy on the sentiment.
“As much as you seem to think I shouldn’t be overlooked though, I almost wish my job wasn’t necessary. I mean…” He looked to his drink when it arrived, smiling at the waiter and lifting his strawberry milkshake, taking a sip from the curly straw with a pleasant little hum before continuing. “Sorry er-. Yeah. I only really started considering the job’s necessity when I realized how hard it was for heroes to hold a good reputation. You can save a thousand lives and one mistake as the public on your back. I mean, I’m sure you saw that mess with Red Horn a while back. One criminal uses their quirk or some drug to send her on a rampage, and suddenly the immense good she does every week is torn to shreds in so many people’s eyes. Though…” He let out a soft chuckle. “God if anyone ever becomes her PR manager I’ll be praying for ‘em. As much as she impresses me, she’s definitely not someone you can easily control or… predict.”
Niso’s fear of Red Horn briefly resonated in his chest. Niso had a select few fears. Primarily, death, and anyone he thought actually had the potential to kill him was part of that fear… he saw the damage Red Horn could do. Especially now that she’d raged out and wasn’t holding back… if he took a punch from her…
He swallowed hard, shaking his head. “Ugh. Sorry. I was just imagining all the paperwork that’d be involved with her if I was working for her and not hellhound… ehehe.~”

She nodded quite a bit and just looked at Niso because she agreed, "It is a good idea to do such a thing. Especially because the work of a hero needs to be displayed to make sure people know what is happening, what they are doing and that it is good. And she deserves to get that attention and love instead of what some of my shitty colleagues are posting, because-." Hanako stopped her talking because she might offend some reporters here, "Because they are not well versed with what is happening in the world." She said more polite than her intention had been. This man, Niso Gottschalk was already a nervous-looking man, she should not use too bad words and potentially scare him off.
But she was glad he spoke up to her, that his job should not be overlooked and how necessary he was. Maybe she had worded it wrong, but yes he was, people like him were necessary. She froze... what happened with Red Horn? Wow, she was really out of it but she eagerly listened, a criminal used quirk or some drugs on her and she went on a rampage? Shit Mia, what? She nodded slowly, still processing the words Niso had said, "Well you point out the crucial job you have. I hope you start a hype and that people want jobs like that." But indeed, good luck tackling the one job for Red Horn. She was silent as well, not aware of Niso's thoughts obviously as she thought of her own. This would be a backslide for that of heroes, she should contact Nimue.
She chuckled softly at Niso, yes, the paper work mess. "Would you then say, that your job already changed things for Hellhound and could be thus a change in the future for the hero system and acceptances of quirks by the bigger public?" It was a boring question, yet one that Hanako really would like to have answered. She had been lucky meeting two pro-heroes, but she wanted to meet all of them. It was no longer the easiest job and it would become even more difficult if there were PR managers but still, the world was still developing that plan, if she could be a little quicker. It was just pure interest, not such a thing as gossip, but this man might change the world and he seemed to be too excited to even understand all of the consequences.

“I know right?~” He chimed in as she agreed with his position on the matter. “I mean the media always reports the mild property damage like it’s the end of the world, but if a hero saves actual, tangible lives? The news cycle eats it up in 24 hours and it’s gone. These heroes are saving lives daily but I see more in the news about the angry and sometimes racist members of the public causing a stink about them than I do the heroes actual achievements… its what gets the news channels views I know, but I feel its only right at least someone is making sure the good stuff gets through as much as it can, eeeeeven if that means just having to play the system in our own way.”
God, even Niso was a bit stunned by how suave and confident he was being on these matters, and he was mostly talking. “I mean, I can’t blame them of course, they got a job to do… but I just made sure my job is making sure good news gets out there rather than bad news, ya know? Always feel its good to spread hope rather than despair.” God that was a lie and a half but in a way, he supposed he did like to spread the ‘hope’ in spreading more chaos.~
“Yeah I’m hoping for that too.” He’d happily respond to the idea of starting a trend. Personally he more realistically hoped he didn’t, and he started working for more than just Freya to steal information from more heroes and direct more of them towards his enemies, buuuuut ah well, he supposed he wouldn’t mind if more people followed after him. He’d be flattered even if they were all sheep.
Niso took another long sip of his drink, nodding along to the oncoming question. “Oh definitely. I mean, I don’t wanna oversell myself, at the end of the day Freya is still the hero, she’s the one who should have eyes on her, but it’s definitely changed how things work for her. She needs to take into account that a lot more of her busts or her takedowns are gonna have eyes on them so I’m sure her nature has had to adjust to that a little too. In turn the media are more prepared on how to interact with her, they know if she has time for an interview or not cause I have a sense of Freya’s schedule, I think it’s better for everyone involved, but It can definitely have it’s complications!~”

Niso got Hanako's full attention, it was so nice to finally talk to someone on an intellectual level and on a journalist level because heck yea, G got her but that did not change anything and some of the maniacs at Metropolitan, god she wished they were fired on the spot. Wasn't it their job to make sure the public was enthusiastic for stuff like this, so the heroes could do their job and not be.. oh god she did not want to think about it but she could now nicely ask Niso. "But having to play the system in our own way, is what Japan has done for years. It is pathetic but it works. But that being said, I was wondering if Hellhound from time to time gets blocked in her work because civilians don't want to be rescued or stand in her way or worse even the police or do you say it's mostly that people bark but don't bite?"
She nodded, yes, kinda he was right, people had a job to do but Hanako also felt like journalism meant you had a job to inform the public about every single detail that mattered. So property was destroyed but if their shit government paid for the repair without batting an eye, then that should be published as well, if the heroes got reprimanded for it, they should talk about that as well, most just said that heroes did shit work and that was it. She nodded, "It's just they should give every information as a journalist and neutral, show both sides. The thing is that of course with the hype on all our social medias it's not only the journalist doing but they are sure joining one side or the other." It was just a frustration and she could not help but let that go.
She was really interested in his work and smiled therefore happily when he said he didn't want to oversell it but saw the point. "I like that, I just wonder if every hero is good for that, we have a lot avoiding the public or some that are already experienced with it such as Serperior or just people with a don't care, don't want to agenda. I think RedHorn for example just does what she does best right or Blue Agate who might not see the issue or doesn't even want to talk to the journalists or public at all?" How would he see that, should it be a thing just enforced by something, that the good PR would stand and help the abyss between heroes and journalist or better heroes and the public so they did talk and let the public know what happened?

Sipping from his drink Niso was given a rather interesting little question more so about the public than his work with Freya, which was definitely unusual but… something he supposed definitely had value in being answered. Tipping his head back he’d probe his memory for a moment. Trying to keep a light touch on things he’d typically just call in the media and let them do the work but for the first few weeks he had needed to be a little more hands on to sell his ruse. Getting more comfortable as the two of them spoke, he hooked one leg over the other, holding onto his ankle and tipping his head back in quiet thought. “I’d say the most she’s ever encountered is an arrogant… if you’ll pardon the language… asshole-“ He began rather bluntly. “Who wouldn’t accept her help. Had to drag him out of a fire, not one she caused mind you, kicking and screaming that he wanted a ‘professional’ to help him, not here… course by the time his so called professionals arrived he’d have probably been dead but.” He gave a shrug and a frustrated sigh. “Sorry… it does get under my skin a bit thinking some of these people will be arrogant till their death…”
It was even more aggravating for the true Niso… it was part of why he didn’t feel remorse when he sent such people to early graves. A lot of them basically asked for it…
Niso nodded along as the woman before her gave their idealistic view of journalism, but with a clear head and a somewhat frustrated sigh he had to admit “Yeah but… that’d be in the perfect world wouldn’t it? Sharing the good and the bad of heroes doesn’t always sell the tabloids or even the big news channels and…. The world doesn’t run on sunshine and rainbows. Everyone’s gotta make their money somehow…” He placed down his smoothie glass, almost empty now, wringing his hands together. “World just ain’t perfect…” He admitted with a heavy breath, some of his more genuine annoyances bubbling to the surface… still, with a light slap of his knees he tried to put on a better smile. “Sorry, I shouldn’t be turning into such a downer, not when someone’s giving me a serious interview over my dream career.~ Some bad apples just spoil the bunch for the rest of us I guess.~”
Talking about the other heroes he thought for a moment on it before giving a slow nod. “Yeah, yeah I can get that. Some of them just don’t mesh with what I’m offering but… there’s someone for everyone, even in press. Someone like say… Yellowjacket? It came out a lot after the first hero rankings she never wanted the limelight. For her the perfect PR guy keeps her name out of the news, let her live her life. Serperior? Yeah he knows his media stuff but he’s also a hero, he just might need someone to let him keep his mind more on the hero stuff so he doesn’t lose focus? Now I’m not saying everyone NEEDS a Niso but…” He shrugged casualy with a smile. “They could certainly use the right one for them… feel like that doesn’t sound too arrogant.~”

Hanako really liked Niso, she liked how he spoke and that they had the same sort of thought about how the pro-hero world had to be promoted and how people were just blind sighted about the past and about being traditional. Hana knew that she from time to time was like that as well, she had fought with G enough about that but he was also slowly changing her that she had not noticed at first instance. She made a soft chuckle sound when Niso said something about his language and then simply said the word asshole, and she found it rather funny than anything else. She nodded, actually what a shame that Niso had to state that the fire wasn't caused by Hellhound, in Hanako her mind that wasn't even a question but she was sure it was a defence mechanism because it was asked so often of him or Hellhound. She nodded, and nodded again when he apologized, "I can imagine it is frustrating so do not feel like you have to apologize. It is good that you started the idea of a PR manager, who knows what the news would make of such assholes if you would not be there to point them to the positive facts."
She could finally share her own aggravation about the others in the journalist job because it was insufferable to be in the same work as them as they were shitty. She nodded and looked at her own drink, yea... perfect world. "It's about getting the news first, no matter if the facts are right." and she looked up when she heard the splat of his hand on his knee and gave a small smile, "Ah that was me, don't worry." She laughed a little and nodded, yes, it was always the bad apples. "It is realistic to consider they will always be there."
This man made her laugh again when he said he was't saying everyone needs a Niso and she smirked at him while shaking her head, "Not at all, you found a very great niche of a job and I am glad you do. It is very interesting to see what you do already and as well in the future." The new voting at one point might come and she wondered how that would work and if Niso would have a big saying in that, it would be nice. "Thank you for a little insight in your job," She wondered if she should tell Nimue about it, maybe Witch Doctor could use one. "Would you be open for more pro-heroes or would you say that a PR manager such as you can best only handle one at the time?" That might be changing too with a pro-hero that was also a teacher at U.A. or one that was always out there.

Quite honestly? Niso was enjoying this. Disguise on or not this woman was actually pretty pleasant to talk to and it was no wonder she'd taken a career as a journalist cause she was damn good at getting the person opposite her talking, and while Niso wasn't a big enough idiot to let his disguise falter and made sure to stay in character, with her pleasant demeanor he was almost sure she'd managed to get a few people to slip on things they perhaps shouldn't have said. She was even reassuring to him when he worried he'd spoiled the mood a bit. Hoo boy. Look out whoever gets interviewed by this lady next cause they were about to get a real bad case of tooth decay from all that sweetness.
Niso was mostly nodding along to her points at this stage though, not wanting to repeat her own points back to her or repeat himself and run in circles. She likely had to make some sort of article about this at the end of the day and Niso himself preferred not to waste time... though an interesting question did come in asking if he had time to work with more pros. Now, ideally, Niso would work with all the pros he could. He wanted to get in all their good books, get those 'heads up' they didn't realize they'd be giving when they might be closing in on him but... he had to be realistic about this.
"Well, in a perfect world I'd be helping everyone I could, and while I'm certainly open to working with more heroes I definitely need to keep myself grounded in what I can handle. Personally, if there was someone Hellhound worked closely with I'd like to start helping them too. They'd overlap a lot and it'd help me get a sense of what I can actually handle without going overboard. If that worked well and I still had the time... I might consider a third outside the group, but at that point I think I'd really be stretching myself ya know?~"

There were not many more questions that she had, he explained things, he would know what to say and he was pretty good at his job, which was nice because he was a PR manager of someone else, focusing on their news and status and well looks in the press. She was satisfied to know there were capable people like that out there and not opposed to the shit some of her colleagues used to do. That's why she wanted to know if he had the intention of doing more PR work for others and his answer satisfied her as well, so she smiled. "Yes, I can imagine, you shouldn't stretch yourself out too thin. Maybe one day you can get an apprentice." She gave a soft chuckle with the idea, it might not be a bad thing, she would recommend him.
Hm she should think about something though, something she could ask, it was a far too curious matter to suddenly drop but he basically had answered everything she wanted to know, she could ask stupid questions if he considered that everyone could pick up his job but she was sure about the answer already, that was no. He was too smart to drop her anything bad that would have happened, so she would not figure this out anyway, she liked to end her conversations always with two things. "I don't have any more questions, you answered everything I had on my mind very thoroughly, thank you for that. Are there matters you still would like to discuss that I have not brought up or do you have questions?" Some people would like to know what happened with the interviews and conversations, and of course especially for her as Lady Scandal, they could be afraid she would harbour bad thoughts or comments for them, though Niso did not have to worry about it, she actually liked him a lot.
