Are you not usually allowed to carry weapons where you're from? [ he's just... allowed to walk around with a sword on his hip the whole time if he wants to. sometimes it's the safest way. ]
It usually depends on what country you're in, because the level of strictness varies by law. But in general, no.
Japan specifically had a pretty strict one. But because of the terrorist attacks, the government became desperate and gave all citizens a gun in order to protect themselves. So now, not only do we have the terrorists, but we also have countless untrained people running around with a deadly weapon.
Oh, completely. But they weren't getting anywhere with the cases, and they wanted it to look like they were doing something.
... I was a police officer before. I hadn't actually been on the force for very long before all this started, and that decision made me quit. Why work for an incompetent organization? It's how I ended up working with Mineo after.
If you're working as an ex-officer, are you working with others of the same? I know Mineo likely had reasons that could have driven him to leave his line of work. But the details are his to know, not mine.
[ ... ] Even where I'm from, you lock away your weapons from untrained hands. Otherwise you're just asking for more trouble than you want to be taking on.
[ honestly the introduction he kept giving people in w0 spoiled he was a cop, but most people probably had no idea what mineo was talking about because it was so fuckin extra. ]
You can ask him if you want, but I can't promise if he'll say anything. He is generally more open than I am though.
[ so there's that. ]
Exactly. But if we stop Adonis, then there's no reason for everyone to have firearms.
There's usually a specific intent behind it-- a message. In America, there's the KKK, which is a terrorist group that is motivated by racism against a specific group of people. You create fear and chaos and death to send your message.

Are you alright?

he was really hoping people would only notice mineo's reaction. ]
I didn't think it was funny.

...
It was pretty intense. For not finding it funny.

[ use a mean and extreme example to make a point. he's not that different from harrow, in some ways. ]
It was just a particularly sore subject, so I didn't think it was funny.
no subject
... Not a fan of guns, then?
no subject
No. The case I'm working on back home... I'm only doing it to get an anti-gun law reestablished.

That was a stupid decision. Give a child a sword and they're just going to hurt themselves on the blade.

To a point, it seems. [ mineo your hickeys ]
Adonis being the terrorist group you mentioned? I'm not sure we have that word where I'm from. What does it mean, terrorist?
no subject

no subject
It's basically in the name-- a person or organization that does acts of terror.
no subject
[ look, the word hasn't been coined yet in fire emblem land. ]
That could be a very broad definition.

For Adonis, their thing is specifically is that they wish to punish sinners.

But they recruit members by promising them a chance to get revenge against those who sinned against them.
no subject
Clever of them, you have to admit.
