Agent Terui.

As I am certain you have observed, Bowser Koopa has kidnapped one Ms. Sari Sumdac.

He has challenged the aligned forces of good to a Race for her freedom.

Looking across the DATS duty roster, I believe you may be among the best suited to earning Ms. Sumdac her freedom.

What do you say, Agent? Can you burn some rubber?

Ridiculous it may be.

But those are the fact as we've been presented with them, and Bowser is known for his love of games of any sort.

I want the best, Agent Terui. Your dossier says you're the best.

Hn. I could, certainly, if it'll help, but...

What sort of race IS it?

Agent Terui, you're not inspiring much confidence in me with wishy-washy statements like that.

I asked you to race for me, and you're less than enthusiastic. Do I need to find someone else? Are you not up to the job?

Don't question me! Of course I can do it.

It still doesn't change my question.

We shall see.

According to Agent Sonic, the race will be a 150cc cart race on an undefined track, with unknown hazards, and very loosely defined rules.

I'm sorry.

Did you just say a cart race?

Did I speak unclearly? Are you having trouble processing my words?

One Hundred and Fifty CC Cart Race. In potentially hostile territory. With what are bound to be hazards and cheating.

As the Americans used to say, Agent Terui, WELCOME TO FLAVOR COUNTRY.

1/2

How loosely are we talking on these rules?

Agent Sonic reported the use of low yield explosives, tar slicks, ballistic kamemon shells, and full contact between the carts, as well as outside interference by spectators and natural course hazards.

Given how we are not certain where the race will be taking place, I cannot speak to that last one.

Still, I think this is something I can work with, regardless of the ... vehicle at hand.

Fantastic.

I can't believe I'm saying this...

We have a cart prepared for you to practice with.

You should make certain it is equipped to carry something far heavier than just me, for the record.

I will contact agents Eikichi and Douglas in the motor pool. It should not take long.

Good.

Is there anyone else I should know about that looks as if they'll be participating?

Date: 2011-09-28 05:38 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] xtrnlmonologue.livejournal.com
King Bowser himself, as well as one of his lieutenants.

We have confirmation that Haku Eikichi's husband will be taking part in this, as well as the Autobot Bulkhead. ... I am really not certain how that will work.

Otherwise, he seems to be controlling the sign up roster. We have various unaligned sorts volunteering, but we don't know whether or not they'll be racing.

Eikichi's husband could at least be part in our favor, perhaps.

Though I have concerns about Bulkhead in this situation. I have a fairly good grasp of what happens when your motivation blinds you.

I share your concern, but there is an old joke that fits here.

What do you give a rampaging bull elephant?

The answer is... Whatever it wants.

I do not believe that we could force Bulkhead to sit this one out even if we deployed the heavy division against him.

I don't deny that.

I am merely hoping he can be used to our advantage, rather than Bowser set him up to be our detriment.

I plan to steer him towards an explosive before it detonates, and make sure that he knows where Bowser is at all times.

I kind of like the way you think, I believe.
