A Formal Complaint on One Dodo [ooc welcome] - Naunet - 11-07-2013 ((The following is copy-pasta'd from in-game RP!)) *** Evening had begun to fall over Limsa Lominsa. The salt in the air had garnered that sharp tang that seemed to rise up just before the relative chill of night, and the ocean below the city’s many walkways had begun to churn with the rising tide. Far above this, tucked away in a small side path carved into the stone, Ildur stood, hands behind his back, watching over the city like a captain looked at his ship. Or at someone else's ship, more accurately. Not far, the path would meet a wooden bridge, and across this bridge walked one Antimony Jhanhi, her eyes on the wooden slats a few steps ahead of her. She paused at the end, upon catching sight of the by now familiar hyur, to take a deep breath and then approach Ildur. “Excuse me, Mister Vaernian,” she ventured, after closing enough distance that she didn’t have to raise her voice to be heard over the constant white noise of the ocean. Ildur turned around without changing his posture much and smiled slightly. "Good evening, miss Antimony." Antimony bowed her head briefly, clasping her hands in front of her. "Yes, good. It's been pleasant, no storming since the morning and... ah. Excuse me." “It's alright,” the man brushed off her stumbling. “I think there was something you wished to discuss with me?” Antimony's ears flicked up and down and she looked out over the wall before responding, "Well, yes. Though... perhaps I should have written a report to turn in first... ah, blast it, I wasn't thinking." Behind her glasses, green eyes frowned in frustration. “Perhaps that won't be necessary. Tell me what is it and we will figure out if a written report is required.” Antimony pursed her lips in thought, her tail twitching anxiously behind her. "First, I want to make it clear that I do, ah, respect the authority of yourself and the other members of the CRA's council. And the organization itself. This--this has nothing to do with the work I've done or... you've done. We've done? But, yes!” Her hands clasped in front of her at her waist to still whatever fidgeting they’d been about to begin. “It's just that, I'm sure you have a code of behavior for members of the agency and.. I'm concerned one of them is not, ah, following... it.” Ildur tilted his head very slightly to a side, brows lowering. "Someone in the directive council, you mean?" Antimony furrowed her brow worriedly. "Well... plainly put, yes." Raising one hand to rub his eyes exactly once, Ildur mused, "I see." He looked straight to Antimony. "Would you mind telling me who and what he -or she- did?" “Is this... this isn't something I should have brought up here, is it,” her hands worried one another. “I prefer this to a written report. We would have had to speak personally sooner or later, in that case.” Antimony sighed and adjusted her glasses, ears flicking back against her skull. "Of course. I understand. Ah, as for your question..." She hesitated and then, "Well, it's D'hein. His behavior towards me has become extremely troubling." Silence. “Go on.” Antimony looked to one side uncomfortably for a moment and then back at Ildur. "I'm still not sure how he managed it, but a few weeks back he followed me without my knowledge while on an outing to meet with a friend. He eventually, ah, disrupted that meeting, but... well, that wouldn't be quite so notable except that he felt the need to follow me, in secret!” She hesitated again before adding with a beseeching look, “There was an... ah, altercation there, but that's not part of my complaint. He seems to have no sense of respect for my privacy!” Ildur didn’t look particularly distressed or even surprised by that. "That's quite a severe statement, what you are saying. Are you sure he was following you and not there just by chance?" Antimony shook her head. "No, he outright admitted he'd done as such. But that's not the only time he's behaved inappropriately. Not a week ago, he used the agency's linkpearl to contact me about personal matters! And... had the gall to intrude upon my home and speak of... speak of...” She frowned heavily and tossed her head back and forth, dispelling a clearly disturbing thought. "At any rate, his behavior is not appropriate for one in his professional position." Ildur thought for a moment before talking, "I understand your worry, miss Antimony. I will speak to him about this matter and see that he does not trouble you anymore.” “You will?” Mild disbelief, and then, “I mean, of course you will! I would expect nothing less. Perhaps more.” “At the same time, I ask for your patience. I will not make excuses for him, if what you tell me is true, but he is still a respected member of the Agency. I would not like this matter to be discussed again until I can figure it out.” Ildur closed his eyes. "Or until he does something like it again." Antimony took in a deep breath, her tail whipping behind her once at Ildur's amendment. "I... suppose that is as fair as one can expect. I must emphasize the degree of distress his actions have brought me. Were he to persist, I..." She paused and her ears drooped. "I will hope that he does not." “He will not. I will speak with him about this matter as soon as possible.” Antimony bowed just slightly, “Thank you for taking the time to acknowledge and deal with this issue.” “ It is my duty. Please, do not hesitate to bring this up if it ever becomes an issue again,” he advised. “I will let you know what comes from this after I have spoken with him and, possibly, the other members of the council.” Frowning, she nodded. "I understand I may not have... endeared myself to some. I wish to apologize for that, as it was not my intent. I only want to work in peace." Ildur nodded once. "I understand. Do not worry yourself with such matters. Miss Carceri can be quite strict and demanding, but so are those who expect everyone else to be the best they can be." Smiling, “Ah, I feel much better now that this is in your hands. But, unless there's anything else you need...?” “No, that will be all for the time being.” Again she bent her body into a slight bow. "Thank you again, then. And, ah, have a pleasant evening." “Farewell, miss Antimony. Thank you for bringing this up to me.”
