YUMIKO KAMENASHI
Perhaps Yumiko’s nerves shouldn’t be running so high, especially because the woman was so confident in her abilities. However, that didn’t stop Yumiko from being more nervous than she felt was necessary. Perhaps it was because this was her first job, or maybe it was because Yumiko needed an aerial lift from her mom because Yumiko couldn’t drive her motorcycle across the ocean; she’d fix that one day. Regardless, it made completely sense that the young Quincy woman was unable to shake her nerves as she ventured through the city of light. As she walked, she clutched two letters to her chest. One was a general letter of recommendation to be given to the recruiter. The other letter was addressed directly to Cyrus. It was a letter of recommendation as well, with the same contents as the previous letter; except it has the additional information on Yumiko’s disability that was not contained within the other letter.
Of course, Yumiko was more than able of conveying the nature of her disability to the recruiter if the subject came up; but it wasn’t as important as the information reaching her employer. Which was why Yumiko arrived at the recruitment headquarters of the Vandenriech, nervous and truly incapable of waiting thanks to her nerves. However, Yumiko was more than glad to take the waiting time while mentally psyching herself up for whatever came next; along with trying to relax her nerves. She could only hope the recruiter she was meeting wouldn’t be too severe. After all, the only tales she knew were really of the old Vandenriech. In new territory, anyone was bound to be nervous; but Yumiko knew she was ready.

CYRUS | VANDENREICH GRANDMASTER
Part of one's duties as a leader was to step in and handle whatever work was necessary and in one's power. Ninsianna had served as Cyrus' right hand for years now, and had worked in his stead even after she had become Director of the Albedochiffren. It was only right that Cyrus do the same, and give her a bit of time to spend with her daughter. Besides, handling matters of recruitment was perhaps what Cyrus had excelled at the most.
In the lobby of the Vandenreich's administrative office, a bookish-looking young man spoke up from behind the desk. "Yumiko Kamenashi? Apologies for your wait. The Grandmaster will see you." Gesturing to the elevator next to him, it opened almost expectantly. It went only to one place; the office of the Grandmaster.
Cyrus, for his part, was simply waiting in his office, glancing out one of the immense windows that lined the enormous room. He wondered, almost idly, who had designed the room in such a way. Was it designed to impose, or to intentionally feel empty? Perhaps one day he would make some attempt to make it seem a bit less daunting.

YUMIKO KAMENASHI
Frankly speaking, it hadn't really felt like Yumiko had been waiting all that long. She had ways to occupy herself. A up to date Smartphone with a myriad of games on it was one such method of distraction, which was why Yumiko passed the time without any trouble. Frankly speaking, the young woman had even begun to relax for a bit; at least until her name was called out. Immediately, she put away whatever she was using to entertain herself and listened to the man at the front desk as she walked up to him. What he said was, well, surprising to say the least. She was, after all, expecting to meet the normal recruiter for the Vandenreich.
Yumiko's already relatively fair features did their best to pale a tiny bit more as she heard what the front desk attendant had to say. Immediately, butterflies leapt into being within her stomach, and Yumiko felt as if her heart was in her throat. She swallowed a few times, took a small breath that restored a modicum of composure and gave the attendant a warm smile and a respectful nod of her head.
"Thank you, sir."
With that, Yumiko stepped into the elevator quite easily, turning to face the doors. After they had closed, Yumiko leaned against the wall of the elevator and let out a huge sigh. The Grandmaster. Not the recruiter, but the very Grandmaster of the Vandenreich himself. To say that Yumiko was nervous would be an immense understatement. However, she did the best to calm herself down, which lead to her tinkering slightly with her prosthetics. Careful adjustments, inspection, and overall making certain her prosthetics were in complete working order. It helped her relax, and certainly helped her legs feel less like jelly; which she never felt when her prosthetics were on. Eventually, when there was a musical ding of of the Elevator's arrival, Yumiko stood up straight and tall; well as tall as she could manage being only five feet tall. Her mother was six feet tall, what the hell happened there?
Yumiko walked up to the Grandmaster at his desk, her eyes helpless to wander about the room as she walked. What was the purpose of such a large and empty room? Yumiko had grown up within a mansion, and there were certainly many large and empty rooms... But what was the purpose? Intimidation, simple emptiness, or the weight of leadership? Whatever the case, Yumiko had walked up to the Grandmaster's desk and from there... Honestly speaking, she had no idea what to do. Was it more polite to wait or should she announce herself? Waffling upon what she should do was likely where Cyrus found Yumiko, still clutching her letters of recommendation to her chest; truly exposing her youth despite her prodigal nature. This was something new, her first job, and Yumiko could only hope that Cyrus was accommodating enough to her obvious nervousness.
