Bailey was walking in a LGBT march through New York City. She had isolated herself closer to the middle, so she wouldn't risk absolutely losing it if she saw any Christian fundie counter-protesters on the opposite sides of the gates set up by the NYPD. She was just as into it as the others, shouting slogans and holding a sign with some slogan she had honestly just sort of grabbed before joining the march. However, she had her phone on vibrate in case she was needed for something.

Meanwhile, on the roof of a nearby building, a blonde man stood, binoculars in hand, as a pouch in his hand hummed softly. The Driver he'd been given to identify the second Rider was reacting to -someone- in this crowd. He just had to figure out who.

Bailey's phone started vibrating, and she extricated herself from the crowd, handing her sign to a really cute gay guy before answering it. At the same time, something seemed to be messing with the Revert Seal. She lodged her phone between her ear and shoulder and kept talking while she fiddled with the device around her wrist.

Egon frowned to himself, scanning the crowd, before seeing a woman separate herself from the group. Taking a moment, he held the pouch in the woman's direction experimentally, causing the Driver within to hum louder.
"There you are." He murmured. before making his way towards an alley near the woman, climbing down.

Bailey finished her call and continued to tinker with the device. It was reacting to something. She had never seen it behave this way before, and engineers aren't fans of surprises, especially in devices they've built.

It was at that moment Egon dropped to the ground, not far from Bailey as he straightened up, eyes flitting to the Seal. "Excuse me."

Bailey jumped, landing her feet shoulder-width and knees bent slightly, ready to fight if necessary. "What?" She asked. She was taking no chances. Not after the event she was just openly associating herself with.

Egon held up an open hand, showing he wasn't there aggressively. "My name is Egon Schildträger, and I'm here on behalf of Ymni Corp with a proposition."

"You work for Ymni too?" Bailey asked. She relaxed, and said, "Alright then, what is this proposition of yours?"

"To do more for humanity than simple protests." The man declares, as he opens the pouch, pulling out the Pilot Driver that it seemed was intended for Bailey, tossing it to her.
"To be more than an average human, and to face creatures that threaten the world, while still working for Ymni Corp's interests."

"Thanks, but I brought my own." Bailey said, displaying the Revert Seal. "I'd show you the actual important stuff, but that would require me removing my shirt, and I'm not exactly keen on doing that in public."

"That Driver still serves as a communicator, and once it's complete, will also help you activate a... secret weapon of ours."

"The Roids I helped program the AI for?"

Egon smirks slightly. "The same."

"Dude, I know everything Ymni. Corp has software-wise. Don't try and pull this secrets bullshit, I probably know more about the company than you." Bailey said, pocketing the Pilot Driver. "Thanks for the free tech, though."
