Hm, modern technology is far too modern... [the video feed turns on, displaying a blonde Japanese girl who looks like she didn't mean to turn the video feed on, but she quickly replaces that with a wide, friendly smile.]

Hello there! Please allow me to introduce myself; my name is Fuu Hououji. I have read through the official pamphlet, but... I still believe that there's been some kind of mixup.

I'm not intimately familiar with American law, but I had thought that the minimum age to join a military service was seventeen, and I would have assumed that drafting foreign nationals would be out of the question... to say nothing of taking them out of the past.

I'll be looking for a Japanese consulate, but I've never been involved in a diplomatic incident before. I don't suppose anyone has advice?

Yes, I was prime minister of Great Britain. [ Though he had to earn being an ambassador. ]

Goodness! I had no idea I was speaking to such an eminent figure.

Well, I'd be missing out on some lovely conversations if I just announced off the bat.

It does a bit. [ Even if their response is scorn, it's out of fear. Afraid of… what, the CIA or some such nonsense. ]
