As soon the user Glitch replied in the chat, it became clear that the trio's reactions were different from each other, although subtle. Yukina smiled when she saw the reply, while Rattus simply was as he always was, being neutral and dry in his expression. It was Neo's reaction which was the, at least, most noticeable among them. He raised one of his eyebrows, and had generally grimaced out of displease. He knew to himself that he wanted to cringe explicitly, but can't for the sake of keeping secrecy. And the reason for this is very simple, and that was the way 'Glitch' typed in the chat room. For him, it was laughable and juvenile.<br/><br/>However, there were instructions regarding what was under the table of their place in the cafe. "Get them quick." Rattus said to Yukina. However, it seemed as if she didn't need any instructions, as she immediately checked under the table and saw three earphones. Neo and Yukina immediately put them on, while Rattus examined them for a short while. For him, it seemed only yesterday that phonograph cylinder recording was the most bleeding-edge technology the world can muster. But now, wireless and futuristic private audio output devices are cheap to manufacture for the masses. And so, he put them on.<br/><br/>And soon enough, another reply came on. It seemed as if Glitch knew immediately that the group of three had all their earphones worn. And then, something in the screen happened.<br/><br/>All of them were surprised by how the display unfolded itself right before their eyes. Even Rattus was astonished by the flashy presentation Yukina's chat friend was able to create, but the only sign of this astonishment was him taking out his hip flask and drinking from it. Nothing else. On the other hand, while Yukina was excited and impressed like a little girl, Neo was sneeringly amused enough, both because of Glitch's pretty high ability to do graphical presentation, but also because his style was either a subtle parody or imitation of the most well-known early manifestation of hacktivism, Project Chanology. It was so long ago that Neo completely remembered when imageboards were considered utterly terrifying by the rest.<br/><br/>And finally, he spoke out and confirmed that he is, indeed, Glitch himself. His voice was heavily distorted electronically, and deliberately did so due to security and surveillance concerns. Thus, he instructed them to not verbally reply, but just type it out.<br/><br/>Rattus came up with an idea. He whispered at Yukina. "I request to speak with this certain individual." Yukina nodded to him, so she shifted to the side and let him chat with him directly. He typed out his reply.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Good afternoon, Mister Glitch. This is Rattus von Engels speaking. I am the Chief Executive Officer of the Order of the Black Eagle, and Yukina here holds the position of Engineering and Manufacturing Adviser, ergo making yours truly as her Employer.
