[He responds to her call almost immediately. It's a message from Riza it's likely going to be about something important!]

Yes, of course. I'm available now. What is it Lieutenant?

[They're going to keep addressing each other with their military titles aren't they? someone help them]

[They're doomed forever, rip Riza and Julius.]

One of our [comrades? allies? fellow recruits?] fellow ALASTAIR members is planning an infiltration of the royal castle. It won't be an easy task and she'll need the help of more than just a few others.

I'd appreciate it if you were willing to lend your support.

[But obviously no pressure, he has a life of his own and all that and it could be dangerous, to say the least.]

I'll do what I can. [Julius is so sick of working alone so he feels happy when he works with others. He's quick to lend his support and he seems eager to work.]

Lieutenant, I'd like to make some preparations in advance. How much time do we have left?

[Probably not a lot tbh.]

Thank you, sir.

[It's relieving to know that his thoughts point in the same direction as her own. As much as Riza trusts and respects Kida, she's always seemed more willing to act first and then perhaps think later.]

Several days. Not more than a week. Kida and I have put together a list of a few others we'd like to bring, but nothing has been set in stone yet.

[Julius eyes widen with surprise. That's plenty of time to him. He'll be able to come up with something. It's cool, Riza.]

We'll have to decide our next course of action together. I trust you and your allies, Lieutenant.

In a few hours from now I'll send you a report. I hope that won't be an issue.

[It's just going to be tldr: mission stuff. You get the idea.]

[She's used to working with people who play the long game; three days is like the blink of an eye in comparison. But good to know that there are people who can work on shorter timeframes. Bless u, Julius.]

Of course not. [Like she would ever refuse advice from him.] If there's anything you need from me, please don't hesitate to contact me.

[They have so much work to do. It'll be fine. Julius had his doubts at first but everyone seems more than willing to work with each other. He has more confidence now and he has Riza to thank for that. ]

Understood. Good luck with everything.

[He cuts off the call there, but then he makes some preparations immediately after. You'll see him again soon Riza!!!]
