[Nocturne's eyes widen in shock]

Morph: [transforms into a Mountie and salutes] What I was about to say was that Canada is lovely! A treasure! If we had to get stuck waiting to find a huge steroid-irradiated brute for weeks at a time, I'd pick this enchanting country! But maybe a section a little closer to some night life. Or a mall. Or people who have been to a mall. Once.

Within a month the pale-eyed ronin's name was on everybody's lips, even in the merchant's district. Everyone was Seta-sama this, Seta-sama that; even Chie’s getting sucked into the rumors surrounding him. “You know,” she said when picking up supplies for the local inn, “I heard he used to be in the daimyo's service! I wonder what happened?”
"Who knows?" Yosuke shrugged; people like him didn’t have much to do with the samurai, who usually sent servants to conduct their business for them anyway. The closest he got to dealing with them were the scruffy ronin wandering the merchant district in Nagato, but even that was a while ago. “Must’ve been something spectacular.”
"Not really." Said an amused voice behind him. Gods above, how could someone move so quietly? Yosuke whipped around, ready to reprimand the newcomer, when he found himself face to face with none other than the fabled Seta-sama.

Bruno: But, Colonel, I think you had better-
Klink: No, no, no, no — I do not want to talk to him. He's probably found out something about some paperwork I've done wrong and that'll give him a chance to yell at someone for an hour or two.
