Right, like that.

[throughbamboo]

[he nods a little]

Is it yellin' at ya now?

[doggonemad]

Oh yeah.

[throughbamboo]

[god. He gives his hand another little squeeze]

Anythin' make it quiet down? Even a lil'.

[doggonemad]

Ehh . . . when I'm distracted, mostly. Like, fightin' is fine 'cause I'm all worked up an' shit. It's like fight brain takes over an' tells everythin' else ta fuck off.

[throughbamboo]

Mmm . . . makes sense, though. S'somethin' ya like doin', too.

[doggonemad]

Right?! A good fight really gets me goin' . . .

[throughbamboo]

. . .

So talk 'bout one.

[doggonemad]

Haw?

[throughbamboo]

Thinkin' 'bout yer head yellin' ain't helpin', right?

I ain't gonna drag ya out for a fight, so tell me 'bout a good one ya had instead.

[doggonemad]

Shit, I dunno, yer really puttin' me on the spot here.

[ thinks for a moment. ]

Guess it could be any of 'em I had with Kiryu-chan last year.

[throughbamboo]

That's the point, bro.

Heard ya got elaborate with some of 'em.

[doggonemad]

Oh yeah. Had ta, ta get 'im ta go all out.

[throughbamboo]

[he hums a little curiously and squeezes his hand]

What was the most elaborate one? Or one of 'em. Gimme details.

[doggonemad]

Staged a whole-ass zombie movie.

[throughbamboo]

. . . ya what.

[doggonemad]

Got the Hannya Family out, busted out the costumes an' make-up, an' got Nishida ta do the performance of a lifetime over the phone. Kiryu-chan was practically shittin' himself, thinkin' a whole-ass zombie invasion had taken over Kamurocho.

[throughbamboo]

[oh my god.

He's keeping a straight face]

You tellin' me Kiryu bought it?

[doggonemad]

Totally. Thought I was a friggin' zombie an' everythin'.

[throughbamboo]

Yer lucky he didn't try ta crush yer head. Ain't that how ya get a zombie?

[doggonemad]

Eh, ya just gotta kill 'em again. S'fine. He figured it out after a bit.

[throughbamboo]

[he snorts] "After a bit."

So when people say ya were elaborate, they mean ya did shit like that?

[doggonemad]

Hell yeah. Rented out Bantam one night an' played bartender. Tried ta overcharge Kiryu-chan fer some cheap swill an' then fought 'im when he refused ta pay.

[throughbamboo]

[that gets a huff of laughter]

What the hell, bro.

[doggonemad]

Paid the management at Shine a pretty penny an' got Hannyami on the roster fer the night. That was fun.
