"That is a matter that I've been authorized to look into. I have seen documentation about how the police force you are a part of looks upon the Special Crimes Unit. It is truly surprising that they look down upon a Deka-like group that way, when they cannot stop the Alienizer attacks themselves." Jasmine replied as she found a table in the opposite corner from the others.
"And it is true we would see more of each other if we joined forces."

"My problem is that I was assigned there. I can't go against my orders. I could ask for a change, but I can't leave Bridge alone there, as much as I'd like to work with you more," Hoji said, "I'm too loyal to him..." he smiled, "He's even become my partner; something I never wanted him to be, because I never thought of him as good enough."
He leaned back, sighing, "Loyalty and honor...or beautiful temptation?" he murmured.

"Such a decision...interesting how these things turn out." Jasmine replied, hearing his last words there. "I am certain something can be worked out." she said, getting up and getting them both a cup of water each, letting the 'beautiful temptation' part linger in his mind as his eyes would go where his mind wouldn't.

"Awwwww, I'm touched," Bridge smirked, half joking and half genuinely serious "So, what'd I miss, what have you two been up to?"
He paused and looked deep in thought. "Waaaaaiiiiit, you're off duty so that means that ..." Bridge put a look of mock concern on his face and touched Jasmine's shoulder "Jasmine, you're allowed to slap him whenever it gets uncomfortable,"

"I was out on patrol, and this handsome fellow joined me." Jasmine replied to Bridge's question with a smirk, before looking at him at the last part, "No, I felt no discomfort from his presence. But since you are here, we are getting drinks...of the non-alcoholic variety." she said, sitting back down across from Hoji with her water, and handing Hoji's water to him.

Hoji nodded, taking his glass from her and taking a drink from it, "Bridge, you weren't meant to overhear that," he said, "And even if I am off duty, that doesn't mean I lose all sense of control over my actions, you know."
("'beautiful temptation' part linger in his mind as his eyes would go where his mind wouldn't."
I like that, but I'm not quite sure what that means)

(The eyes follow the movement of beauty before them, even if his mind was focused on more serious things. In short, he watched her get up and go get the water, and come back)
"Right, Hoji-san's got a great sense of self-control." Jasmine said as she took a drink from her own water.

(Ah, got it)
"I don't think a detective couldn't have one. It's kind of important to the job," Hoji commented.

"Well said." Jasmine replied, taking another drink and leaning back a bit in her chair.
This also meant that the handle of another object showed through the side of her jacket just a little bit, enough for the two SCU officers to realize that it was a weapon.

"So your sidearm is the same as ours," Hoji stated, "I'm actually a bit surprised."

"Yes, the SP Shooter." Jasmine replied, covering it up again, "While standard-issue, it is not the personal side-arm I carry most often."

"Yes, yes, yes, Hoji is a true gentleman ladykiller, etc. etc." Bridge smirked, patting Hoji on the head. "What, do you carry most then?"
Bridge used the SP Shooter the most, mainly because it was small and could fit in his jacket pocket.

"I don't really like it, I just carry one. What do you carry?" he asked.

"D-Colt." Jasmine replied, "It's a longer version of one of your weapons, actually, and more powerful." she said, looking at Bridge, "And I can use it, transformed or not."

"Interesting weapon," Hoji said, "Does your dog store it?"
