Chapter Text
(3. Person writing)
The ADA was currently sitting underground in their hidden base, while war was happening right over them. The Guild and Port Mafia trying to find and capture them as their way of winning the war.
The ADA was sitting around a meeting table, Fukuzawa sitting at the end of the table, listening to the other members discuss ways on how they could get the upper hand in the war but also how they could get Kyouka back due to the Port Mafia having taken her and keeping her captive.
Everybody went quiet, no one having any ideas without dire consequence to the agency or civilians of Yokohama, until Ranpo suddenly spoke up “We could call Oji-san to come and aid us” Ranpo had his eyes open, meaning he was serious about his opinion, his emerald green eyes locking with Fukuzawa’s metallic blue eyes, them silently communicating with each other.
The other members nodded thinking about Ranpo's idea except Atsushi who was wondering who this ‘Oji-san’ was before asking Dazai in a hushed tone “Dazai-san, who is Oji-san that Ranpo-san is talking about?”, Dazai just grins lazy before answering the weretiger “aahh, you don't know her, how could I forget to tell you about her well Oji-san as Ranpo calls her, is the agency's lawyer and old friend of the president and Ranpo's, her real name is Marianne Ojituro but she prefers to be called Mari, if she does come and ends up helping us, I could introduce the two of you” Dazai simply shrugs still grinning that same old lazy way as before but before Atsushi could reply, Kunikida cuts into their conversation “it would be better if I introduced them to each other, god forbid I still remember the day we two first met Marianne-san Dazai.” His words firmly and slightly annoyed thinking back when him and Dazai were introduced to her.
(tiny lore drop: Fukuzawa knew Mari before the agency was founded and she met ranpo and Yosano when Yosano first joined the agency where Mari became their official lawyer, where kunikida and Dazai were first introduced to her a few month after Dazai joined and the rest has only heard small things about her from Ranpo's occasional slip ups about her, so Kenji, kyouka, Atsushi and the Tanizaki siblings haven't met her yet, where Kenji and the Tanizaki siblings have been informed of her but never introduced anyways back to the story lol)
Dazai pouts teasingly “aww boohoo kunikida~” making Kunikida shake his head dissapointed before returning his attention back to the president waiting for his word on Ranpo’s idea, the entire room goes silent as well all looking at Fukuzawa.
“I agree with Ranpo, I will contact her immediately” Fukuzawa says firmly before standing up to call her leaving everyone waiting in the meeting room in suspense for his return and answer.
