Pretty grim way of thinking of it. [ but he does not necessarily think that's wrong now either. ] Doesn't that also depend on what you'd consider corruption to be?
Injustices, I guess would be one way of putting it. Limbo catches the scent of one, and then drags us after whatever the problem is. It's usually something like someone with too much power, too much money abusing their position. Who'd've thought?
It's always the rich and powerful. [ annoying. he is thinking... ]
So you guys are kind of like detectives or a police force outside of the actual police? [ thinks about what shu has said so far and seemingly coming to his own conclusions. ] Or more similar to vigilantes?
If you're getting the results you need guess you wouldn't necessarily have to. [ listen he has his own complicated feelings about the police currently but. ] At least someone's doing it.

I don't think it's impossible for a person to be both. [ ...no, that's definitely possible. ] Somebody you've known for a while?

A few years, give or take. We work together, in our own way.

Is he a sniper, too?

[ shrugs. ] We live in a big city. There's corruption everywhere, if you're sticking your nose under the odd rock to sniff it out.

[ he's not saying it's like vigilantism, but y'know. ]

[ immediately concerning. ] And the result usually involve screwing over someone the law won't touch, so everyone wins.

Pays more than whatever our promised stipend here is going to be?
[ also he can agree with that. screw the corrupt, etc. ]
no subject
This would be a more consistent payout, if that's what you're asking.
[ sometimes you get like 20 grand every couple of months. or it might be every half a year. ]

[ me every day trying to calculate how much cash the bustafellows have when they do that many jobs for like 20k each. ]
no subject
That's a good thing. I've been asking, sort of, to get an idea if anyone might've without really thinking about it.
no subject
I know there are some people who seem interested, or I've heard it's not been a total dismissal from people.
no subject
Guess it's still a little too early to really tell.
