;[Manji isn't exactly in the most cheerful of moods. He's a simple guy with simple desires. Food. Sleep. Alcohol. Sex. Rin to be safe.

But their cabinets are empty, the sake bottle is dry, and little Rin throws a hissy fit every time he goes to find a working girl. He's trying to content himself with just taking a nap and knowing that there's not much trouble Rin can get into sitting in the apartment, fooling around on her ridiculous little Network box.

So of course, the kid has to start a conversation. He thinks about ignoring her, but Rin never can take a hint. She'll just keep pestering him. So he grunts, letting her know he's listening with minimal effort.]

You know... I've been thinking a lot. About the curses.

[Manji snorts softly. Figures the kid would spend all her time obsessing about something that's completely out of her control instead of something useful. Like getting the revenge she claims she wants so badly.]
