[akito]

[ Someone is in a foul mood at the moment. Though Akito is doing a fairly good at keeping his irritation off of his face. What he isn't good at keeping off of his face - for the moment, at least - is blood. From both a bloody nose and a split lip. And given the developing redness he's getting on his uncovered right eye, he's in for a decent black eye as well. ]

Gazelle Deliveries will be delayed tonight by one hour and seven minutes in the Metal sector. All other sectors should receive their deliveries on time.

[ huff huff huff. He'll work on healing his injuries himself later. ]

Don't you have a knife?

[Hawke believes that overkill is never a bad thing.]

[akito]

I wasn't going to get my knife dirty for a stupid reason. It's for emergencies only!

[iwannabeadragon]

That's why you clean it when you're done. It's not like they're going to show you the same courtesy.

[akito]

No, but it's no fun if you overkill in a fight.

[ not that he finds fighting fun. he thinks being able to defend himself is, and putting assholes in their place is, too. he's a pacifist at heart though, and spilling blood is far from his favourite thing to do. ]

Plus you never want to use a trump card in a Class E territory dispute!

[iwannabeadragon]

I beg to differ. Overkill has kept me alive for years. Why play fair when they're not going to?

[akito]

Who said anything about playing fair? [ crotch kicks ftw. and using the air around them as a weapon is also pretty cheatsy. |D ]

[iwannabeadragon]

Fair enough. Where did you run into your new friends?

[akito]

A back-alley shortcut.

[iwannabeadragon]

Then I'll have to keep that in mind next time I'm out for a walk.

[He and Nilin will have to be much harder on the local gangs from now on.]

[akito]

It's my back-alley shortcut now, so you shouldn't have any trouble.

[ just like old times back home. :'D ]

[iwannabeadragon]

Ah yes, trouble, because I wouldn't have any idea how to handle that.

[Hawke's used to groups of people trying to kill him at least three times a week.]

[akito]

[ have a nice giggle-snort at that, Hawke. ]

If you ever need to disappear, you can always shave your beard - then nobody would recognize you enough to cause you trouble.

[iwannabeadragon]

[Hawke gives Akito a look that says that's never going to happen.]

I think I rather deal with some thugs trying to make a name for themselves.
