i saw. nobara showed it to me the last time i was at kraken.

. . . speaking of, your newest teammate is someone i know.

[heartlands]

Zenkichi? Whoa I had no idea

A friend or something else?

[survivaltricks]

a friend.

. . . a teammate.

[heartlands]

Are you glad he's here?

[survivaltricks]

[that is such a tough one to answer, god]

i'm happy to see him again.

but i wish the circumstances were different.

[heartlands]

Yeah... I bet

We'll do our best to take care of him

[survivaltricks]

i know you will.

i trust you.

[heartlands]

He seems like a nice guy. I can see why you get along with him.

[survivaltricks]

he acts tough, but he's a big softie on the inside.

his only real flaw is that he's a cop.

[AKIRA. . .]

[heartlands]

What's a cop

[survivaltricks]

[RUPERT. . .]

you're very lucky, rupert. you're a very lucky man

[heartlands]

[sometimes you are medieval]

Should I be concerned

[survivaltricks]

nah. like i said, zenkichi is a good guy.

[heartlands]

Yeah but I meant like in general

Seriously what's a cop

[survivaltricks]

[hmmm]

law enforcement. their purpose is to "keep the peace" or whatever. they "catch criminals" and "serve the public."

but since the policing system is super corrupt back home most of them suck.

[heartlands]

Ahhh jeez

So basically the people supposedly in charge of helping people are awful so they only make things worse?

[survivaltricks]

mmmmyep.

[. . .]

but zenkichi gets a pass because he actually does want to help.

[heartlands]

I'm glad at least he does... Hopefully there are more like him and you find a way to get rid of the others

[survivaltricks]

[a lengthy pause before Akira's reply]

systematic change like that doesn't occur in a day. there are. . . good people in the system. people who want to make a difference. they just have a very long journey to trek to get there.

and when i'm older, maybe i can be one of them.

[heartlands]

I think that's a pretty admirable goal.

[survivaltricks]

[hah]

thanks.

i plan to keep fighting for the kind of world i want to live in. no matter what it takes.

[even if he can't do it with the power of his personas]

[heartlands]

And that's what makes you a pretty cool person!!

[survivaltricks]

[RUPERT]

i think it just makes me stubborn.

[heartlands]

It can be both

Take the compliment

[survivaltricks]

noooooo taking compliments is hardddddd
