Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zhen was not normally one to poke her nose into others' business - well, alright, that was a lie. If she felt their business had any relevance to her, to her family, or might be something she could use, she would. Still, it hadn't seemed... polite to question her mother of all people. She may have been busy with her own life... or, rather, her own life and trying not to lose her temper and step in on her little sister's... but she could tell when something strange was going on.

She wasn't as inquisitive about it all as she knew Zhàn was, but she still had her questions, and so it was with some relief that she received the text from her mother - the same one, she was sure, that was sent to Zhàn. And yet, though it was a relief to be promised an explanation at last, that they were being summoned to a park, instead of simply home... it was - was -

'Strange' didn't even begin to cover it, but it was probably the closest word that she could come up with to use. She neared the park earlier than they had been asked to arrive, but only just - it wouldn't do to appear impatient, or too curious or concerned. Whatever was going on, Zhen trusted her mother - whatever she was caught up in, it couldn't be anything like what Mìmì got up to.

It wasn't nothing, no, but it couldn't be anything too terrible.

The young man who looked like he walked out of a K-Pop video raised his brow at the two woman who stood not far from he and Zhen. He frowned and crossed his arms. "Bring in? Are you two the ones causing my family trouble?" Because there had to be trouble if his mother was acting strange.

The older of the two women sighed and shook her head. "I am your mother, Zhàn. Like this, however, I am known as Captain Womite. You wanted answers, both of you." She looked to Zhen as well, small smile on her lips before she nodded to Cavansite. "Yes, these are the two I asked you to bring in." She looked back to her children. "I work for an entity that opposes the 'terrorists' the news tells you about, the ones you've always wondered what the truth behind them is. The truth is complicated, but not beyond your reach. If you want to pursue it, there will be pain and late nights and more exhaustion than you are familiar with. Even having experienced college. And you'll be pledging yourselves to a force greater than yourselves. If you accept this, my colleague is here to help."

Zhàn eyed his mother cautiously [uncertain why he hadn't recognized her before, but now he did]. He was leery....but he was very much for digging into the heart of things, finding the truth in a sea of bullshit. And his mother knew that, and he knew she was too good of a journalist to steer him wrong. "Alright. Though why you need her help, I have no idea." He looked to Zhen, shrugging. He wouldn't be surprised if his ambitious sister was in as well.
