Great flair Ryuuko! [Isshin points to her clothes] It took until I got trapped on a spaceship and turned into a mafia member, but I'm not complaining!

[savetheliving]

[Grumbles] Clothing is hardly a reason to overlook the "mafia" part of this.

[heresthebasics]

The mafia part of this is what makes it all interesting! Come on! Haven't you wanted a squad of loyal men who will follow your every command!

[savetheliving]

No.

[bluewhitecross]

[Crosses her arms. To hell with looking inconspicuous.] Call these men off, Ryuuko.

[savetheliving]

You're speaking about your guard, I assume.

[bluewhitecross]

[savetheliving]

I'll see what can be done.

[firebranded]

So you're Ame's mom.

[savetheliving]

Yes.

[firebranded]

I don't think she likes you too much. Never talks about your or anything, even to her good friends.

[savetheliving]

Astute observation.
