[ kainé... good girl... ichiro seems a little surprised by the line of questioning, at first?
but then he smiles, pushing his hands into his pockets. ]
Yeah. A hundred percent. If I can help out, I wanna help out. [ some things about ichiro never, ever change. he's selfless at his core. ] The connections and stuff we made here - that's the one thing about this place that I never want to lose, and I know I'm not the only one, y'know?
Besides... Chuuoku sucks, but I'd like to be able to take it down with my bare hands, with my bros. I know it's possible. We just gotta keep working.
laughs? he just starts laughing? the mental image of kainé just running into chuuoku with her sword is like the single greatest thing he's ever heard in his entire life. it's not mean laughter, it's straight delight. ] Hah - uh, gotta take down the whole government? Shit, Kainé, they'd probably try to recruit you on the spot!
[ he loves this, actually, reaching up to wipe a tear from his eye after laughing - just, delighted and smiling at her. ] You don't have to do that. [ touched!!! ]
Tell you what - gimme some time to get shit settled, and then, fuck it. Come over.
[ FUCK IT. why not. otome tohoten and ichijiku deserve to get the shit beaten out of them, actually. ] I think - I've got some old scores I gotta settle when I get home. Got a lot of problems that feel real inconsequential after all of this, so maybe we'll have a more united front that'd be helped a lot by a badass with a sword.
[ ichiro grins at her, amused and pleased. ] Can come by for dinner and meet my bros, after, too. Heh.
We can threaten people together. [ a little laugh, at that, too. joint effort!!!
anyway - to the comment about his brothers, he nods, immediately. enthusiastically, even. ] Of course they would. Are you kidding? Saburo's a ham around girls, first of all, and Jiro - you'd say fuck once around him and he'd lose his mind at how cool you are.
...And - [ proud, here. ] - they love me. So, they'd love you too. No doubt.
[ She has no doubt his brothers love him and that they're a very loving trio because that seems like the kind of atmosphere Ichiro would promote, but she still worries a little.
If enough women are evil in his world. ]
But you say fuck all the time.
[ It's not like her language would be a novelty? ]

Why not? If wishes do come true and I can come, I want to.
[ She says it like she's just coming over to his house for dinner or something. ]
I can help take down a whole government.
[ She has no moral objections to doing something like that. ]

I'll threaten whoever you need, Ichiro.
[ No hesitation.
She would like to meet his brothers because of how much he loves them, but she's a little uncertain. ]
... Do you think your brothers would want to meet me?

She flusters for half a second at being called cute. ]
... It says something that I'd be one of less shitty girls in their lives. But fine.
[ She will accept that maybe his brothers won't hate her from the start somehow.
Since his world sounds like it really does need to be fixed. ]
