Che. There are pick-pocket kids running around in town. They were dumb enough to try it on me, so they're not that choosy. Watch your wallets and other stuff.

...Oi, Goemon, witch-girl. Still not dead?

They were dumb enough to try it on me, and they'd be short four wallets and a nice pocketwatch if I hadn't taken pity on them.

[strayswordsman]

...Hn. Don't try to con a con-man, huh.

[needs_a_plan]

Not if you know what's good for you.

[strayswordsman]

But you did take pity. What, remind you of yourself at that age?

[black_hat_cat]

It seems that a few people have been in interesting fights lately.

[strayswordsman]

No kidding. Shame we missed 'em.

[black_hat_cat]

I could use one, too. Training is all well and good, but as I'm sure you know, a blade simply deteriorates through repeated polishing if it's never used.

[strayswordsman]

Eh. Plenty of pirate flags in the harbor. Gotta be someone whose ass is worth kicking around.

They probably saw you walking in circles like a moron and figured you'd be an easy target.

[strayswordsman]

I was not walking in circles.

And any kid who figures a guy with three swords is an easy target is an even bigger moron than you.

[serving_love]

Hah, like you'd even know if you were or not, marimo.

Maybe they figured the swords were props and you worked for a shitty traveling circus. Since...you know. Your hair.

[strayswordsman]

Oh, shut up.

...That's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard you say, cook. And I've heard you say a lot of stupid shit.

[strayswordsman]

Aa. Sorry. ...But she wasn't. And yeah, Chopper's looking after her now.

Brave kid.

[strayswordsman]

Yeah. Not uncommon around these parts.

That's what they wanted? ...Idiots. How'd they get hold of you, anyway?

[strayswordsman]

...Cut their hands off to teach them a lesson.

[strayswordsman]

...More like over-the-top.
