> "I admit that this would be substantially easier with a third person, but we will make do. The important thing is for us to lay down what Aya's skill set is, and what she knows and does not know about the situation, so we can figure out precisely how we want to manipulate her knowledge to our advantage."
> "Now then. She knows I have her camera, she knows I am trying to get a picture of her, and she knows that I am willing to take on short-term deception to do it. She does not know that I have tried to enlist the help of anyone else, nor that I may not necessarily possess her camera at any given time, as I do not believe she can see inside my purse at will. She is very perceptive, and a bit arrogant, as much as she will probably not admit the latter. Optimal characteristics of a journalist, I suppose. She and Momizi are friends, though I do not know if either will state their relationship so frankly. She and Hatate consider each other deep rivals and harbor resentment, if not outright hatred, for one another. She has my general story, but she has not seen the poltergeist for herself. She is also trying to avoid returning to jail as much as she possibly can."

>Nue nods. "And you've tried once before, so she's expecting you to be up to something. And that means she's probably going to suspect anyone she sees around you, or knows is around you. So, if we're going to do this, we either need a big lie or we need to be very sneaky."

>"We could probably find someone sneaky," says Nue. "But skilled with that thing is something else entirely. But I'm thinking, the main advantage we have is that we can can pick our terrain."

>"I don't know the surface as well as I used to," says Nue. "Someplace with a lot of cover, and probably not too far off. If we're going to set up an ambush, I can see it happening two ways. One would be to provoke her or chase her. The downside being the window of opportunity is very small, but the upside being she's not going to be so focused if she's moving quickly. The other would be more gradual, but she'll be able to be a lot more observant."
