[he catches the lip twitch, but it's admittedly why he doesn't linger a long time on the topic. takeru doesn't use one - and that's not something mineo's missed, given the fact that everyone was given a gun after lockdown.]
... at least think about it. It's not bad to take any chance to increase your chances of staying safe - at least until I can come and protect you.
[because he'd do his best, any time takeru ran into trouble]
[to give takeru even the bare basics against dealing with people in violent situations. if he can even buy himself just a little bit of time then maybe -
. . . . no, he'll have to do better than maybe.]
... I'm not looking down on you or anything - I know that I can't. [not when takeru is smarter than him, more capable than him in so many ways] But we work together, so I'll at least try to cover you in the areas that I can.

but, they're both in an unknown place with none of their usual resources, surrounded by a lot of strangers who may be more willing to dirty their hands without hesitation than they are. he needs to approach things differently here. ]
Fine. [ he shifts the subject elsewhere, so he doesn't have to respond to the uh. mushier stuff. ] Does anyone here stand out to you?
Well, he's got a hole in his head, and it's not a prosthetic.
[HE CHECKED]

Did you grab one?

You?

[he'll shift his coat where he's definitely just got his gun in his holster. then he'll let it fall back to cover it]
So I didn't really need one.
... But if that's all people have got, I can teach you how to disarm someone in case anybody tries anything funny?
