Well, we were on the sunken ship before its eventual wreckage, so we found some interesting things. For one thing, inside the crates in the cargo hold, Alphinaud found the same set of items his group brought back days prior.
[ which in that group Sholmes brought back a dead arm? what's with the ship and bringing back body pieces?? ]
It seems that way. [ The corner of his eyes crinkle with that thought. ] Hmm, usually power like that comes at a great cost...
[ He seems to contemplate, observing Akira curiously and... when he opens his mouth again, it's with curious words. ] Do you mind if I ask you something?
..What do you believe in? What helps motivate you?
[ He's taken aback for a second, a curious, surprised expression on his features before he schools it back to his normal aloofness. ]
I don't believe in God or justice, if that's what you're asking, or life being fair or crap like that. I do what I want and whatever I need to do to keep those I care about safe, I don't think life has to be more complicated than that.
I'm not necessarily. But, thanks for giving me an answer anyways.
[ Dokja has a tendency of asking things that more often than not take someone by surprise. ] I feel like I understand you a bit more now.
I won't push to ask what happened with Bertolt during the trial, but if you need an ear to rant to I've been told I'm a good listener. [ It's said as if in passing, his daemon returning to coil back to her earlier position as if satisfied. ]
[ Akira nods and rolls his shoulders, he didn't really mind answering but it's food for thought later. ]
What I'd really like to do is punch the asshole who's in charge of all of this, but thanks. You don't charge, do you? [ This kinda sounds like a joke. ]
I think I'd prefer to do more than just punch them, but I agree.
[ You know. Maybe have them have a taste of what they're putting them through here. But, at the joke, whether actually or not, he still humors with a response. ] I don't charge much, I'd only ask for a story in return.
[ Akira probably wouldn't mind that either, but start small. ] <.small>
Just try not to vanish off to who knows where. [ He won't call out yjh directly cause he's not like that, but he does need to say this as the silent third party here. ]

Wonder if that was something that could have been done in the first place too.

If I have any say or control in it, I'll try my best not to. [ Try, he says. But he can't really make any promises, unfortunately. ]

He kicks a bottle again, this time lazily. ]
And I'll try to remember your offer before I break shit next time.

Some people have a preference for actions over words, so don't worry about it. [ Yes, he's talking about someone specifically. ]
