All the funding you would like for research you may have regarding demon physiology, in exchange for looking after, and reporting, in our most important project.” Oei had been over this, many times before with others like this man. Date Toshiro, a man of high regard in terms of his work, yet equally someone she wasn’t sure was up to the task. Looking less then optimal in terms of actual researchers and scientists, she knew that looks could be deceiving; still, she was going to need some convincing on his part.<br/><br/>“You want to help SOPHE, help the world by stopping demons from overrunning and causing destruction. I can see that; it’s why we were created in the first place.” She settled her arms on her desk, sitting leisurely in her comfy chair, her eyes staring down at the man sitting across from her.<br/><br/>“However, there are certain liabilities we must take, especially with a project of this...secrecy. You can’t tell anyone about this, not even your friends or family. To the world, the asset doesn’t exist, and never has. Though, we know the difference, don’t we; a difference between losing and becoming puppets to demons, or securing our place in helping stop their reign of terror.”<br/><br/>Her long hair flowed along her shoulders, as her glasses slightly tinted from the overhead room lights, watching the man in front of her. “I know you’ve had some history with demons, some good, some bad. Not to worry, as the ones that work with us are trusted in their jobs. You’ll be fine to work with them, and if anything does happen, we’ll be quick to rectify it.” Her gaze leered ever so slightly, watching, studying.<br/><br/>“You<em>will</em>do this, won’t you? You can’t really say no to an opportunity like this, can you?”
