[ Well, he supposes it takes one to know one. ]

In a manner of speaking, yes.
>I'm thinking your issue might be a case of needing to "walk the walk and talk the talk," as they say.

[He honestly hadn't expected to get that right - he'd just been making a racist comment. Wow.]

'walk the walk'?
i've been doing that, haven't i? playing nice, doing shit for people... holding back from hurting them.
hell, i've left you alone for a while now, let you do whatever you wanted with shigeru. figured you'd be advocating for me.

[flowlikewater]

For the record, you don't 'let' me do anything. Let's make that clear right from the start.
>And I've seen what you've done to Shigeru. His good graces are the only reason I haven't found you, you realize.
>So no, Dodger, you do need to be doing a tad bit better with how you behave.

[smokedout]

what I'VE done?
you think what's happening to him has anything to do with me?
what about you? no chance you're doing anything to fuck with him, right? or maybe he's just fucking breaking on his own? did that occur to you?
why do everyone else's fucking problems have to be my fault?

[flowlikewater]

I'm not talking about his gate.
>I mean all the times he's covered in bruises or he feels terrible.
>No one believes you are trying to change because you are not owning up to any of your mistakes.

[Honestly? Dodger can tell from the context what Genji's talking about, but he didn't even know the thing had a name. Shows how much he pays attention to Shigeru.]

that's none of your fucking business.

look.
i know i'm a shitty person, okay? shockingly, that hasn't escaped my attention.
but shigeru and i sorted our shit out. we're squared off.
so the last thing i need is you dragging that shit back up when you're supposed to be level headed one.

[flowlikewater]

I'm just being honest about how I feel about you.
>Because if you are truly serious about wanting to become a better person, then I would be a hypocrite were I to turn you away.

[smokedout]

course i'm serious.
that's why i started hanging around shigeru in the first place, he makes me feel good.
like i can be someone better than i am.
wasn't until you showed up that anything bad ever happened between us.

besides, if you don't answer to me than i don't answer to you. so who exactly should i be owning up to?
