Not real good with future tense. Past, yes. Future? Not so much.
Still, it seems to me that, given the situation, the "Vous" tense ought to be right, considering that "Tu" is not singular necessarily, but more of a formal-informal thing, right? Even with the singular-plural, one of those tenses makes more sense than the "Ils" tense to me.
I don't know, it just seems odd.
P.S.
Sorry for de-railing the thread Kaiser.
On-topic character to make up for it.
*From old records in ******* warehouse, located in *******. It is thought that these records date back to pre-WWII at this time.*

Biography: Yorioshima is an odd being, discovered in Nepal about 5 years back. Training with Buddhist monks in the mountains. We performed basic background checks on him, and found nothing. Not just a clean past, but no past. He had literally nothing. The agency was forced to contact him directly.
When asked about his past, he said he had none. When asked where he was born, he said "Earth". When inquired as to how he reached Nepal, he claimed "wormholes" was the answer. We weren't able to figure out this gibberish.
We then observed his training. He moved quicker than the others, faster, stronger, but there was more to it than that. He seemingly knew what the monks would attempt before they did. He took advantage of it. Felling one, then another, then another. Eventually, the monks were given Bo Staves. Didn't faze him in the slightest. Continued to drop them like flies. Upon completion of the segment, the monks seemed quite honored to have fought with him.
We asked him if he knew the year. He responded by saying the following line quite quickly. "It is currently the 27 of August, 1930. The time is 3:42 PM, 15:42 Zulu time. Seconds is at 18. Current moon phase is "New". Anything else?" Upon checking the statement, we found him to be correct. Clearly, this being had some sort of supernatural powers. What... well... we didn't know yet.
Brought him back to ****** for briefing. He complied, though I get the sense he would have just as easily said no. Didn't seem to care either way. Eventually, after about a full month of questioning, he opened up about his past. Apparently, he was from Feudal Japan. An exiled Samurai that had been given superhuman powers by a being he refers to only as "The Bright One". He refuses to elaborate on that detail. He said that he discovered time travel there. He is capable of flitting through the streams of time. We asked if he could share this gift. He said it was not his to give. He is simply borrowing the power of another. He elaborated, saying that his Time Traveling capabilities are quire inconsistent and archaic. He can only hit a region within about 100 years of his target generally speaking.
This number confounded us. How could he be here then? "My time is come and gone. Now, I live for another. Who? Why? These are questions even I do not know." This was befuddling to us, to say the least. We asked if he was here to change history. He laughed. "Change history? Can't be done. Well. It can, but it's already happened, so history has already been changed. We can't have the universe running on paradoxes, now can we?" It is unclear what he meant by this, though he seemed to understand it.
He seemed somewhat angry about the growing number of "superbeings" however. "They are messing in things they don't, can't understand. It is only right of course, but it is disappointing nevertheless." It appears that he means well as far as supers go. Eventually, we asked him for his help. "Help? Oh, I shall help. You just won't know it." He stood up. He walked out the door. We followed him of course, but then he just...vanished. Whether he used an as of yet unknown power, or simply lost us conventionally is unknown at this time.
We have not seen him since, though we looked for quite a while. We picked up a number of leads in the next few years, ranging everywhere from Moscow to South Africa, over to Mexico, and briefly in Malaysia. Every time we got close, the lead vanished. We currently have reason to think he is somewhere in Croatia, but we have stopped attempting to contact him or track him down. He clearly doesn't want to be found.
He is rated Power-Level 9 of 10. This man is capable of almost anything he wants. He can travel through time, and is immortal. Clearly dangerous.
He is rated Threat-Level 2 of 10. This man displayed no threat to ******'s security, and seemed unlikely to act against us.
He is rated Ally-Level 5 of 10. We feel this man is unreliable at best, though his power alone makes him an useful ally if he does help our interests.
