You've reached the inbox of Miyako Hotsuin. I am unable to answer your call at this time. Please leave a message, and I shall respond at my first opportunity.
[Jaune won't get a response. Miyako spends a few seconds being weirded out and confused before she marches to the door and opens it harshly. She is fully dressed in her uniform, and she's even got her weapons on her. She stands tall and confident and commanding, and there's no trace of the discomfort she possessed when she wasn't, you know, almost naked.]
Mr. Jaune, [gonna ignore that request for now, yep] how long have you been standing outside my door?
I feel as if I ought to be the one asking you that. You stood outside my door for that long...? Why did you not simply knock on my door and ask to speak to me personally? Surely it would have been simpler to have our conversation face to face.
[She could stand there and glare, but she's getting the feeling that won't help him learn his lesson... It'd be make things more awkward, probably. So she sighs and hesitantly turns away from the door, allowing him to see into her apartment.]
You may enter. My quarters are not well suited for entertaining guests, I'm afraid.
[That's kind of an understatement. Her entryway and living room are spartan, containing only the barest of necessities and unmodified from when she got it. She's had more important things to do than decorate.]
[ He invites himself inside, inspecting the place despite it not having much to offer. ]
You're really going for the whole bleak future vibe, huh? T-That's cool, I guess...! Could use a little light, though. Maybe some colour. A vase at least... oh man...
[She's way too above that aggravated huff thing, except... No, she's giving him an aggravated huff. He's bringing out the normal teenager in her, much to her chagrin.]
No, Mr. Jaune. This is not my preferred aesthetic. I merely did not have time to decorate to my liking, as there were other things of import that I wished to attend to first.
At any rate, I believe you have information for me. [Not a question. Not at all.]
N-no, that's not it at all! It's just..... two friends helping each other out, isn't it?
[ Regardless of her answer, he takes out his Cerevice and sends her something, but before Miyako has a chance to check her message he suddenly clasps his hands together, pleading her! ]
[ They are instructions on how to Google Mosley's details, because he's being funny. ]
Exactly! And you look like a lady with a mean swing!
The truth is, we're kinda short on members, hah... b-besides, you could totally make new friends that way! Then you wouldn't have to hang out with me that much. N-not that I don't enjoy our time together!
[She lets out an aggravated sigh when she sees the instructions, but she will be Googling him. Oh, yes. Still expects personal details from Jaune as well, though.]
I hate to disappoint you, but I have no experience in playing any sort of team-based sport, much less baseball. Your team would not see any benefit in filling out its numbers by adding me. I'm certain there are other professionals you could seek out.
[Note how she's not arguing about the meeting people point. A little more, Jaune. Just a little more...!]
We have an 11 year old, you'll be fine. C'mon, you just gotta play, I'm not asking you to win! 'Cause if we don't have enough players, then none of us can...
[Miyako is giving him such a look of utter disdain right now. Not even gonna touch the fembot comment, but she won't forget. Oh, no. She will never forget.]
Fun? Mr. Arc, you misunderstand; I have not agreed to this proposal in order to have fun. If we are to be a team and participate against others, then we shall aim to win. I am a Hotsuin, after all. Failure is unacceptable for us.
I will familiarize myself with the rules before the game. I expect the same from you and the others of our team. Now, please tell me when the deadline will be.
Hmm... the game's on the 16th, but... you don't really need to push yourself to perfection because of your last name. I mean, I think I know that better than anyone.
I-I see. I cannot say that I am overly used to having friends, and this does seem sudden, but I am glad to be of assistance to you.
With that said, I do not know of your circumstances, but my family name belongs to me as well. I am under no one's obligation but my own, and I will not fail. The 16th will leave me with plenty of time to grasp the game's rules and find advantages to press. I have met with failure once before, and I do not wish to experience it again. Especially not when others are counting on me.
[ Ah, the fear of failing is something he can definitely identify with, although for him it's more about combat and leadership than it is about friendly games. Still, it feels like he has a better understanding of her. ]
Didn't you know? Even strangers are just friends you haven't met yet! Well, it's what my mom sai-- I mean, y'know, better get used to having lots of them around here! [ He lightly elbows her in the arm. ] ...but maybe start with making the apartment look a little less....... storage spacey.
[She smoothly steps away from him after he elbows her. Personal space, Jaune.]
I am expecting to make many acquaintances and allies during my time here; if any those should grow into friendship, I shall not fight it. Making friends, however, is not my primary goal.
But you are correct. I was so caught up in work that I have not devoted time to myself. I shall remedy this and study the sport of baseball soon in the future.

no subject
[ Totally missing the point here, ah. Then again, one could argue that a simple text of Mosley's email/number would have sufficed, but shh. ]
So, I guess... you're... gonna invite me in? O-Or, y'know, we could totally talk out here in the hallway, haha...
no subject

no subject
[ He stops poking her completely uninteresting table so he can face her again. ]
Under one condition, though. I just need a tiny favour, that's all! Do we have a deal, Miss I Am Miyako Hotsuin?
no subject
Is this bribery, Mr. Arc? [BACK TO SURNAMES FOR HIM FOR THAT!]
no subject
N-no, that's not it at all! It's just..... two friends helping each other out, isn't it?
[ Regardless of her answer, he takes out his Cerevice and sends her something, but before Miyako has a chance to check her message he suddenly clasps his hands together, pleading her! ]
P-Please join my baseball team, Miyako!!
no subject
Baseball team...? W-why would you want me to join your baseball team? Is it not a professional, team-based athletic competition?
[She'll be pulling out her CereVice and checking what he sent her as she speaks.]
no subject
Exactly! And you look like a lady with a mean swing!
The truth is, we're kinda short on members, hah... b-besides, you could totally make new friends that way! Then you wouldn't have to hang out with me that much. N-not that I don't enjoy our time together!

[ APPEALS TO HER SYMPATHETIC SIDE YES? ]
no subject
[She did want to experience normal life more, so...]
no subject
It'll be fun, Miyako! Say it with me... fffffffuuuuuuuuunnnnnn...nnnnn.
no subject
