So here's the thing, right. I mean, yeah, the Initiative kinda kidnapped us. But they say they didn't do it on purpose. And I believe them, 'cause nobody in their right mind would wanna recruit me into their army on purpose. Some junkie loser. Ask anybody who saw me my first few weeks here, okay, all shitting in my pants scared and useless with the shakes. I couldn't hold a gun steady if my life depended on it.

So they didn't exactly bring us here on purpose. But what do they do when we end up here?

[He raises his hand to the camera, counting off on his fingers:]

They patch us up, bring us back to life. Hey, that's a big deal for some of us, ain't it?

They give us some swanky ass apartments. Yeah, we got roommates, but do you see what the rest of everybody's living in? We got some damn nice cribs in comparison, yo.

They give us money. Just like that. Like, "here you go, go buy a sandwich."

They give us weapons. You ain't never been a prisoner if you think that's something they'd do if they meant to keep us prisoner. Okay, nobody arms a prisoner. They'd be taking away our weapons if they were trying to hurt us all on purpose. And look at this shit -

[He holds up his own gun for the camera, popping the magazine out so the poison darts inside are visible.]

- All high tech. They ain't just giving us sticks to go out and defend ourselves with. This is some quality craftsmanship.

[He sets the gun aside.]

And you hear how I said "defend ourselves"? Yeah. Those U.E. sons of bitches are coming after us. They bombed the shit outta this place we're living in like my first week here. I mean, look around. You can see what they done to this place. To the people in this world. And they got the technology to do that to our worlds, too, unless we do like the Initiative says and go on missions and fix this shit.

And you know what else? You got a problem with the Initiative, you can just talk to 'em. Yeah. They ain't gonna hurt you. I was having some problems when I got here, so I went and talked to them, and guess what? They gave me everything I asked for! That's all it took. So yeah, maybe they can't send you home right now. But they'll help you out best they can.

Look, we're pretty much their only hope here. They wanna do right by us. So just... stop talking about dumbass rebellions and start - I don't know - communicating.

Yeah, like sneaky. Super sneaky. I can also "do" sneaky, so maybe that's the ticket, or it would be the ticket, if this was happening.
payback: (*facepalm* redux)

What are you envisioning us doing here?
payback: (haaaaaagh)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
What kind of awesome things do you think there really are to do?!
payback: (smile | plz tell me you aren't serious.)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
Why would you even suggest I know these kind of people?
payback: (tearing; is this karmic justice...)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I hate to break it to you, but I don't think that's even a thing.
payback: (annoyed; no you are not allowed to laugh)

Nobody at home does kung-fu.
payback: (WHAT... d'ya think you're DOING...)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
If you want a kung-fu monk look for one around here!
payback: (da fuq)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:09 pm (UTC)(link)
... I just... go around...
payback: (haaaaaagh)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I walk a lot of places...
payback: (manji naked?  where where where)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Well different... cities? Sometimes!
payback: (awkward; oh my bright and shining star!)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh I just go around... and look for people... they're crowded usually! And busy. There's lots of things to do I guess, and lots of people! My dad's best friend lives in Edo and he's always really busy.
payback: Rin explaining something cheerily with her hand up. (reassure; ACTUALLY HAS THE DUMB)

[personal profile] payback 2012-11-30 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rin leads a high-vagueness lifestyle and DON'T GET ON HER TO BE MORE HONEST, Mr. Pinkman.]

He's an artist! He paints! [also he's shogun's ninja but that is a big big secret]
