This is Evangeline! Sorry, I'm a little busy right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

[Fairy Services! They bring her a package shaped like a sword. Upon opening it, Evangeline will find a sword that has some monster-related references, but also has the flower she always wears on her head, on the handle and scabbard.

The message says]

Happy early birthday.
I know it's really early, but I wanted to make sure I got it to you, since who knows how busy things get near Valentine's Day. I hope you like it and let me know if I need to make any changes.
- Jean

[ooc: "monster-related references" up to player's choice :3 go as wild as you want.]

Thank you so much for the sword, it's perfect! I love it! The flower is a great touch, I'm flattered you noticed.

I'm glad.
And of course, it's a rather noticeable accessory. I hope I got the details of the flower right, though.

You did a good job! The Abnormality that gifted me the flower would be happy you recreated it so well.

That's great.

I hope you'll find use for it and if you need tips on how to use a sword, you can always ask me.

Oh, yeah, I guess there are people out there who haven't been trained how to use a sword, huh... Don't worry, though, I've handled them before.

A lot of people are like that. I hadn't been trained to use an actual sword, either.

But that's good. And have a good birthday, once it hits.

At L Corp, you pretty much have to know how to use whatever weapon is available and useful against whatever happens to be breaching containment at the time. If you don't at least have a melee and a ranged option and both red and white damage available for each then you're a liability. Do people just specialize in one weapon, where you're from?

Red and White Damage?

Mostly we focus on the omnidirectional gear, but we do get basic training with rifles and combat knives. At least in the military.

Red damage affects the body. White damage affects the mind. Some Abnormalities are resistant to one or the other. There's also pale damage, which affects the soul, but those weapons are rarer and you have to be a pretty high level employee to handle them.

So you need to be aware of which abnormality resists what in battle. Sounds like a lot of memorizing.

We have managerial notes for reference, but most employees have them memorized. Since it also covers how to work with Abnormalities, what types of work produce the most energy versus what risks a breach or causes instant death to employees... It's the kind of thing you only forget once.

Yeah, makes sense.

The more I learn about your work, the more I honestly admire that you're able to do that. Surely the experience from it has been useful here, too?

For sure! I can definitely handle myself against most of the monsters in the Segments. And, do you remember when people were transforming because of being experimented on and getting violent? It's great experience for calming supernatural entities down.

I'm glad we have you on our side, with out experience and knowledge. I doubt my werewolf curse becomes a problem, but at least I know I have one more person to help me calm down if it ever does.

Call me any time you need. I promise I won't let you do anything you would regret.
