( Spain never asked for his sword to be enchanted to do this magical phantasm thing but it's his sword so he can't really toss it out. Whatever, he'll have a priest exorcise it later. For now, there are more important things to take care of!

In the middle of the Ironwall District, Spain will be creating quite a scene. He's stopping random people and trying to get them to listen to him. Whatever he has to say, it looks like it's very urgent given the way he's acting. )

Hey! ¡Ay! Listen! Are you listening? YOU THERE! Stop what you're doing! This is an important announcement from the Red Dragons!

( Scarlett Dragons, Spain. He'll get it right eventually. )

There's a thief on the loose! A terrible one! And you know who you are.

( Dramatic pause. )

WHY ARE YOU STEALING UNDERCLOTHES?! Stealing isn't very nice, you know! Those underclothes belong to someone else and not you! Why do you even want them? Someone else has already worn them! Turn yourself in or stop right now or else you'll be in trouble!

( god help her!!! she groans before her expression turns incredulous. )

You're trying to catch a criminal, but you don't have any leads?! Do you have any idea what you're doing?!

[conquistador]

( He's used to this and isn't bothered at all. In fact, he doesn't even notice. )

No, but I'll find one soon, trust me!

[lovesmash]

( with another groan, she fluffs the back of her hair in contemplation. does she really...want to...help this guy out... she's thinking about it tbh... )

Look, just interviewing random people won't be good enough. You need to lure the thief in! Do you have any fancy underwear?

( she knows men wear that shit don't u front spain. )

[conquistador]

( Please help him because he needs all the help he can get tbh. )

No.

... Do you?

( Spain shut up shut up. )

[lovesmash]

( DID HE JUST-- )

You've got guts, asking a lady that kind of thing...!

( she's weighing the pros and cons of this in her head. on one hand, he does seem to be the only proactive person taking on this case, and there's no way in hell iva is going to let some sick perv run around stealing underwear from women live. on the other, gOSH DANG SURRENDERING HER UNDIES TO THIS GUY IS JUST ALL KINDS OF NOT OKAY IN HER BOOK.

maybe if she...tests his competence a bit more...to see if he's not completely useless... )

So what if I do? I could just lure the thief in myself with them, you know. If you know any worthwhile information though, maybe I'll help you out.

( she's doing it for her family.....FOR HER FAMILY............ )

[conquistador]

Ah, I didn't mean it like that.

( Spain isn't really interested in what kind of lingerie you're into, lady. Please! He's innocent! )

Hmm... According to the guild, it began in the last few weeks. So the thief probably isn't anyone who arrived this week. The thief is definitely a native!

[lovesmash]

( huh... that's actually a pretty big lead... maybe with a little guidance, this guy really could help her solve the case? iva taps her chin before humming in thought. )

That means, if we went to the registrar of each guild, we could probably get the names of everyone who joined before we left and investigate them from there.

What do you think about that?

[conquistador]

We could find out exactly where the acts took place too and find a perimeter...

( It's like finding out the pirates were English based on the fact they were near English routes when they were attacked. Yeah. )

Ah, that's a great idea!

[lovesmash]

( that's a weird way to put it, but iva likes it. maybe this guy is competent after all? aw heck, she's got nothing to lose-- she decides to help him after all. )

In that case, I'll help you. This kind of mission is a little different from what I'm used to, but I won't let an enemy of women get away with this!

[conquistador]

Thank you, miss.

( Normally, he wouldn't do business with women but in this world, things were different, right? And he didn't mind working with a beautiful one... He extends a hand to shake hers. )

My name is Spain. And you?

[lovesmash]

( she happily accepts the hand with a firm grip. )

Spain? It's nice to meet you too. I'm Iva.

[conquistador]

Okay, we'll go to the guilds and find out where all of the thefts have happened and question the locals...

And then we'll lure out the thief!

( Dont' ask him how though please don't. )
