Plotline: [Quite a while ago, Akio was given a card by Kazura, good for a meeting at the Uzaki Enterprise building at a later point. And after much unrelated hardship, he's decided to cash it in.]
The Uzaki Enterprise building was just like the man he’d met at work described it, the tallest building in the entire business district, distinctly a modern palace for someone who had already gone quite far in the world. Just standing outside was mildly unsettling, though was not anything to do with the physical size of the structure. It seemed off because applying science to the spiritual, dissolving mysteries most people weren't even aware of, but just looking at the tower made the sheer scale of that operation clear. But Akio wasn't here tonight to have uncomfortable thoughts about corporate Japan, or just what he was about to get involved in by entering. Tonight was about learning just what kind of tools it took to stay safe out there.
He was wearing his best waistcoat that night, and a tie to go with it, which he straightened as he hesitantly took the first few steps into the building, approached the front desk, and held out the business card Kazura had given to him, a good while ago. "Hello, I was told I could get a meeting with this?" He asked, subtly exhaling as he tried to keep calm. He'd been putting off using that card for quite a while, hadn't he? At first because of the incident outside the range, followed by his own mistake, that night at the park, and then there had been an asura with a rapier a few nights after that... Exactly why he came here, to see what answers this cathedral to science had to offer him.
