Look Closer Detective Togusa [Open]
WHO: Togusa and you!
WHERE: Togusa's shiny new office at the Precinct
WHEN: Various points during the month
WHAT: Looking into Retrospec, for what it's worth, but even a dead end is worth something.
WARNINGS: None
The office is so quiet as compared to his old desk out in the middle of the bullpen. It's all a little new to Togusa, but it's conducive to work. He has wasted exactly zero time filling the office space with copies of all his files on Retrospec. Sure, he's got backups at home, and then backups of those backups on his external memory drive? But he wants to keep it away from Hikari, so he is preferring to pore over it all while here.
Mixed in are copies of some of the cases that have involved Retrospec users, whether Togusa was involved in them or not. Dante. James. Yukine Matsuoka. Most recently, Mio Sonozaki. Uninvolved in that case, save for coming across his best friend injured. Togusa knows he has to keep his distance, but he's the the copy right next to the others for the same reason: to watch for when and if they change, and Retrospec works their magic. It's still disturbing to watch his own handwriting turn into words he know he didn't write.
The file folder for October. Malik Ishtar. That one sits front and center on his desk like a loaded weapon, or a sharpened knife hanging over his seat. It sits there each day, untouched, around the rest of his work.
It's all a good cover for his current project. Anything he can get his hands on in reference to Mayor Mayer. His new promotion has given him a little more leeway to pursue investigations, a little less of an eye directly over his shoulder. He is only going to push that luck so far. But so far, the idea that the Mayor is a Retrospeccer doesn't seem to be panning out.

Togusa swallows hard, his throat clicking. That is not what he had expected, and is the least comforting thing that he's ever heard. "Are you sure about that? Another Tatsuo, not Ryuuzaki, not somebody else'e memory in the city? That one's happened before," he is unsure if Tatsuo was 'in the loop' when that one happened, so he has to put it out as a possibility.

He lets out a weak laugh.
"I saw a name plate. Tatsuo Kihara, CSI. He must have worked for the crime lab, because he was looking at a ballistics report."
no subject
Togusa frowns, looking so low it's nearly at the floor, as he tries to piece it together. "But Ryuuzaki was a detective, was it- blending the two of you somehow? His memory with your name slapped onto it?"
no subject
Tatsuo thinks for a minute, trying to make the details of the flash clearer in his head, but mostly failing.
"Although... he was wearing a lab coat. I've never seen Ryuuzaki wear one, and I haven't worn one since university."
