Speaker	Dialogue

Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Ah! Please, come thee hither!
	The child strode through the alley, excitement clear in her eyes. Following closely behind her was a woman with a small notepad in her hands.
??? Interviewer	W-wait... But the purpose of this interview was to learn about the kind of jobs that the Cinq Association would take?
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Thou art learning, at this very moment!
??? Interviewer	No, we're just taking a stroll through the alleys...
	The woman, fidgeting with the notepad, was growing increasingly and visibly disappointed.
	When she landed this interview, she was excited at the prospect of learning more of the Cinq Association's work environment, which has remained rather obscure until now...
	And here she was, tagging along to this director's leisurely afternoon stroll about the alleyways.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Tsk tsk, thou art yet to understand!
	Yet the child's nonchalance was unrelenting, as she grinned and wagged her index finger at the woman.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	I ask thee! What dost thou think the primary function of the Cinq Association is?
??? Interviewer	Well... it's a dueling association, isn't it?
??? Interviewer	You fight duels in your clients' stead... and stuff like that, right?
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Ha ha! Forsooth, thou art indeed yet to understand!
??? Interviewer	...You're not about to tell me that you seek out evildoers to duel them in the name of justice, are you?
??? Interviewer	It's not like you guys are pretending to be 'bringers of justice' or anything like that. There were reports claiming that you had some odd delusions of grandeur, but that'd be preposterous.
??? Interviewer	I mean, you couldn't possibly have gotten so far in this industry with such a childish philosophy, right?
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Ahem! Khm...
	She coughed as though the interviewer had touched upon a sensitive subject, but responded confidently.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Patently not... of course. I must say, mine motivation was something of a more... practical nature.
	As they walked out of the alleyway...
	Two people, surrounded by a large crowd and appearing ready to throw down, came into view.
??? Interviewer	What is this...? Was there a request?
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Nay! I have relayed what request there was to other members of the Association.
??? Interviewer	Then what is...
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Dost thou see now? 'Tis too commonplace an occurrence, kerfuffles such as this, in these alleys.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Thus~
??? Fight Spectator	I-it's the Cinq Association!
??? Bullied Citizen	O-oh boy, am I glad to have one of you here! Lemme request you to duel in my stead!
??? Agitated Citizen	Wha- Oh, you cheeky little... M-me, too!
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Now now, calm thyselves! Now explain-what hath transpired here?
	Hearing what the two had to say, the child took off one of her gloves...
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Ahem. Then mine client has been decided!
	And hurled it at the one standing opposite of her.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	There are rules and etiquette to proposing a proper duel!
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	I cannot forgive thee, knave, thou who holler with nary a care for such things!
??? Agitated Citizen	Agh... You son of a...
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Alas, I must wonder what part of this noble duel request irks thee so.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Now step aside, dear interviewer!

	The child drew her sword from the waist and readied herself.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Allez!
	The duel ended swiftly, with the defeat of the one that had been slapped by the glove.
??? Interviewer	Amazing... Such haste!
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	This was naught to be amazed about. Ah, Make thy payment for the request to this address.
	The child handed a card to the profusely bowing client before returning to the interviewer.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	Heroes fighting in the name of justice... Indeed, such a notion may appear childish in the City.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	If performed in the form of "business" such as this, however, they consider it a real result worth counting.
Cinq Section 5 Director Don Quixote	And that is my compromise. What say you, is it still a childish delusion?
	With that, she smiled radiantly.
