[he didn't know why, but for some reason Hajime was the one he was most afraid of disappointing]

[so when he caught a glance of her smile after Dirk's right hook, a smile that wasn't passive aggressive or laced with anger, he seeks her out]

Oooooi.

[he is TOTALLY CASUAL over here as he flags her down with his good hand. also, he may or may not have a split lip now]

Y'know, Dirk has a pretty good right hook.

[taps the glass of his monocle and smiles at her]

Not exactly.

Phantom thief.

[oh no he's finally honest about the thief thing?? oh no!!]

Phantom thieves are more like the bad guys, right?

[g101]

Depends! What are you stealing and why?

[ so that's what andersen meant. it'd been the wrong time but now they can't say he's going to live through the day. it's the only time they've got. ]

You do look handsome like that.

[a laugh]

Thanks.

[he plucks the monocle off of his face and twists it in his hand, looking thoughtful]

Jewels, mostly. I'm. . . looking for something. [closes his eyes] To help avenge my old man's death.
