....I'm thinking I'll stick with the nice people at Interpol, thanks. At least they have understandable, if more annoying, quirks.

[He stares at Smoker at this, curious about the seastone in general but not wanting to break his hands.]

I'll be sure to not give you reason to use your normal one, then.

[...huh. Was that Smoker being a little nice there?]

When the worst I need to deal with are sociopaths who went nuts and got their hands on some nasty tech? Yeah, that is more 'normal', compared to a place where everyone and their dog can have super powers or something wacky.

Yeah, there's corruption, but that's everywhere. I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Corruption's everywhere--how else do you think I stay in business? I've taken out politicians and dictators, you know.

It's all part of the game, really. [He shrugs. What else was there to say?]

[The Government agencies don't expect them either, but they tend to weave their own web of lies that makes them easy to bribe or take down.

Another shrug.]


That's probably so. I'm not big into that stuff, I'm just a guy who doesn't like being told what to do [and is a compulsive thief to boot.] If you want a better idea of politics in my world, try Pops or Fujiko. Pops works for them; Fujiko steals their secrets.

A thief. A spy. An assassin. One of these, all of these--I don't know. I love her to bits though.

And none of us are doing anything so noble as 'going about change.' We can only live our lives as we do, and our lives don't follow the laws of our world.

[He sighs.]

I'm a thief--I don't act on justice. I act for what I like, what I want to do, what's fun. That doesn't stop me from taking out the truely bad guys, though. They try to kill me, eventually. Being the Greatest Thief of the Century puts a target on your head.

But, you know what? I get them first. And, sometimes, people are better off.

...I'm thinking I'll take that as a compliment then, Cap'. Thanks.

That's not a good comparison. My morals are bent more than a little, so even if you meant it to be insulting it probably wouldn't work.
