Katagi? Hm... may as well make that my first question. What does that word mean to you?

[no_kyouken]

It's th'people doin' respectable work. Not yakuza.

[21towin]

Not the type to consider yourself respectable, huh?

[no_kyouken]

Yakuza literally means good for nothing.

[21towin]

Does it truly? Then what's your name mean?

[no_kyouken]

"The Island", what's that got t'do with it?

[21towin]

Means you ain't a good for nothing!

[no_kyouken]

Yeah, yeah, very cute.

[21towin]

I do my best! So what brought this all on?

[no_kyouken]

Lotta question about what's been goin' on. Figured I'd offer t'answer.

[21towin]

In a helpful mood then? Or more of an annoyed one. I'm sure there's folks out there regardless that are appreciative of the help either way.

[no_kyouken]

Annoyed mostly. I don't like a bunch've people signed up into a dangerous life when they don't know what's goin' on.

[21towin]

Awfully nice of you to do. Something is telling me there's more to it than just that.

[ Majima lost his own eye being insubordinate. He is intimately aware of how severe and gruesome the yakuza life can be. He is not going to say that. ]

Th'life's dangerous. People outta know that.

[21towin]

It is dangerous. But you know, there's quite a few people here that are also dangerous. You are right that most don't know or understand how things work. But I might recommend having a bit of faith in them being able to care for themselves.

[no_kyouken]

Nah, don't faith in nobody in this. I'm just as likely t'get fucked over as th'rest of ya too.

[21towin]

Most of the time I would agree with you. But in this case, I would say to have a bit confidence in other people not screwing themselves over, or others.

[no_kyouken]

Then ya don't know th'yakuza

[21towin]

Hahaha! Nope, guess I don't! Bit of a shame, isn't it?
