[ Shrugging. ]
Ask 'Sabi. The guy still lost, though.
Pah, that's definitely something they made up for some folklore or what have you. I'll admit, at the very least it's creative.
[ Shrugging it off as a simple scare tactic. ]
[ Squint. She's being a little possessive. Must REALLY miss them. ]
It's supposed to use the blood, or ink, of a target, and inflict damage on them——

[ Awkward chuckle. Never put it past them. ]
So about that... er, "magical" knife... what exactly makes it so special to send you in to retrieve it again? Don't tell me it shoots lasers.
[ Pausing, turning back around to face Mohō. ( as they had been very mobile while regaling their accomplishments to her. ) ]
It was more like.. an offering, sort of thing.ᐣ Like I said, I declined. She was pretty, I guess.. but there wasn't anything I found attractive about her.

⠀...maybe you should stop taking on all the “boring” operations, then. You know, stealth, reconnaissance... 💧

...You nearly got married?
[ Gently relinquishing their grip on her face for a moment, digging into their cloak pockets to produce an ornate dagger. ]
So, those higher-ups, the snobby squids they are, sent me off towards some offshore country.ᐟ—

[ Her face lights up. Getting them to talk was always a treat. ]
Please say you're about to tell me about it..!
[ Head tilt, intently staring at her with soft eyes. ]
Anyways. You wouldn't BELIEVE my last mission.

Not a chance. I'd welcome this on any day, at any time. No exceptions.
[ Tightening their grip. In case she thinks of moving.
They like her here. ]

I've been hearing from a few friends of mine that you've been 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐄 the troublemaker as of late.ᐟ 𝘕𝘰𝘸, I know I've been 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘦 for a while, but I didn't think the status quo would drop this low.ᐟ

Oh yeah? Last I heard, you were all about business.
Wouldn't this count as one of those breaks you dislike?
[ Grinning wider, offering her a playful nudge. ]

Is that Captain Ego speaking? It was only one compliment...
[ Playfully sticking out her tongue. ]
Not /just/ you, dummy. Learn to share the spotlight.
Well.. I guess I can't argue. I am pretty great, aren't I.ᐣ
[ Grinning wider, offering her a playful nudge. ]

[ She believes it less and less as she tries proving herself more, but they see her differently... ]
I don't know the real answer. Just theories. And that she couldn't care less about me.
And there's other, better people in my life now.
[ Trying to be.. nice, but their expression grows rather stern as time passes. ]
What do you mean.ᐣ You're not an idiot, Mohō.. what's your mother's deal, anyways.ᐣ

Got a call a few days ago about her condition in the hospital, and helped out like the idiot I am.
[ ...They looked awfully upset suddenly. ]
Rocky and I are cool now. No need to worry.
[ Their expression shifts, looking rather miffed at the mention of a fight between her and Four.
.. and her mother. ]
Yeah.ᐣ What's her deal, Mohō.ᐣ

[ Pausing. ]
Been stressed over my piece of shit mother — got into a fight with Rocky over it.
Just feeling... inadequate. Uninspired. Tired, mostly.
[ Raising a brow at her movements.. before a small grin forms at the right side of their mouth. ]
Talk to me. I'm listening, you know. Better than anyone else can.

Yeah.ᐣ What's her deal, Mohō.ᐣ
