Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. I've got you now and you can't get away.

Um. So, Togusa's preeeeetty much think of him like pre-canon, but if he never had someone like the Major notice him. Beat cop, been trying to prove himself, five and a half years on the force now. He'd been slated to make Detective, but an incident a year ago where Togusa couldn't fucking leave well enough alone, made him miss his possible promotion.

Japanese Immigrant for school. He went to Recolle University, was doing pre-law by way of a criminal justice major, but changed his mind on law school and went to the Police Academy after graduation instead. Was really involved with the Japanese Student Union.

What can we do, how can I help, who can I throw you at?

Also, Togusa's dog is named Daisuke.

Okay, I kind of want them to be college frands. Bonding as international students, especially if he was student union.

Right now I'm trying to figure out her family sitch. Part of me wants to have one or both of her parents alive, part of me wants the crash to have happened.

The temptation to name her father Daisuke is reeeeeally strong.

DOOOO IT, that's funnier than the dog.

If they did go to college together, then Togusa will also drag along his bestest friend Koutarou Takao, who is an artist and general cool dude.

Geez, so what if Mariko was one of the reasons that Togusa shifted away from law and into police? His decision came about because he turned out to not be okay with what he saw as trying to twist the law to fit a case, and wanted something more absolute. But what if Mariko helped him come to that conclusion?

Okay this helps me nail down her back story a little. I think I want to car crash and i think that she and her dad lived and her mom didn't.

She started hacking because she didn't feel like the sentencing was strong enough and originally just wanted to find other dirt on the dude. Then she discovered how much 'normal' people hide and hilarity ensued.

Fairly athletic most of her life, she had to slow down after the crash (it happens to her when she's a little older, 13-14 compared to OU), the injury that sidelined her in early college (I want to say Sophomore year?) is something that was maybe aggravated from the crash previous?

But anyway, the second Togusa's dissatisfaction with the court comes up, she'll probably nudge him in the direction of being more active in making the world better.

I also realize this might give her a soft spot for other vigilantes (which she technically was until she got the legit job)
