Old friend from Sotenbori is in town.

He's going to be a problem.

[medicative]

[that's not a reassuring text to get at all.]

Name, physical description, and his clan if you know it.

How should I handle him if I find him?

[no_kyouken]

Nishitani Homare. Older guy, nose looks like its been broken half a dozen times, ugly pink suit. Shuten pin.

He ain't gonna hurt ya. He's just a fuckin' pervert an' always makin' a mess. Always pickin' a fight.

[medicative]

That's not terribly unlike others I'm used to seeing around here. I'll be diplomatic, should we end up crossing paths.

When you say a problem, do you mean you have unfinished business, or is it just from his nature?

[does he need to hide out for a few days....does Izo need to hide out for a few days...]

[no_kyouken]

He's worse than yer imaginin'.

[ How does he explain this problem... ]

It's just how he is. Real yakuza, been killin' since he was a kid an' he has a good time doin' it.

Listen I need some of th'money I've got with ya. I'll get him his own place as fast as I can.

[she can read between the lines. this is someone Goro doesn't want too close.]

Do you want me to bring it, or will you come here? I'll have it ready, either way.

[no_kyouken]

I'l come get it, can't promise he won't follow me. He's gonna find out everywhere I go sooner or later.

[ Is this shorthand for 'I have a stalker now', probably. ]

[medicative]

I'll be prepared for if he does. Though I may not invite him into the apartment.

[no_kyouken]

Don't, he can wait outside.

[medicative]

Just take care until I see you again.

[no_kyouken]

I can handle him, don't worry about me. It's other people he's gonna be makin' waves for.

[medicative]

Yes, but I care about you somewhat more than those other people. You'll have to accept that I'll worry.

[and then, because she knows him:]

Try not to break any of your own bones.

[no_kyouken]

No promises. He at least ain't got his knife on him.

[medicative]

I can't fix those so easily. You'd have to go to the proper hospital.

[no_kyouken]

Yeah well. I had a bat and he had a tire iron.

[ So much for not worrying about him. ]

[medicative]

How bad is it now?

[does she need to come over, because she will.]

[no_kyouken]

I probably didn't break his ribs and he was too busy tryin' flirt t'hit me too hard.

It can wait until th'morning.

[medicative]

If anything feels any worse later, say the word.

I'll bring you something for the injuries regardless.

[no_kyouken]

Yeah all right thanks
