โRespect? For you? I don't just give my respect to anyone... But I must say that I do respect one thing about you.
โHe adjusts his glasses, reflecting the image of the sailor before turning around and slowly walking awayโ
I'll just say... You have a nice ass
[the sailor would grip his wrist, the strength she possessed far out weighted her busses counter part. Easily take his hand away]
"Then you best learn to treat a lady with respect, Orange Wake isn't just a fancy word it's my title. And I'll have this world know it too need be"
โHowever, because of this information, the middle will now have its eyes on you. If YOU come from that "mirror world," then there will also be those clowns on the bus.
โHe grabbed the collar of her uniform to bring her face to face with himโ
I'll be watching you...
โI've been chasing them for weeks... Of course I was going to find out all about those worms. I'll assume then that you're not associated with them... For now.
"Executive manager?, that doesn't narrow it down at all, makes sense. I shouldn't have expected a Gr-ah Big brother of the middle would know about the company"
[She mused for a moment]
"Well more info is always better suppose I can thank you for that"
โOf course, I should have guessed that you wouldn't recognize someone like that either... If I recall correctly, they called that clock-headed guy the "executive manager". . .
โHis head was already aching from all the information he'd taken in; it must be a lot to processโ
"Clock head?"
[She she's just as confused as him, she's not met her world's Dante yet]
"What some kinda fancy head swap? So this Limbus company is T-corp?"
โMirror... Worlds?
โHe was left thinking, quite confused by the information providedโ
โOkay... Let's agree that it's true and that you're not "that" Ishmael with that bus full of clowns... I suppose then I'd have to kill the clock-head to settle this matter...
"Yeah right there it is again"
[She points at the "Limbus company]
"Those damn people again, seriously this mirror world stuff is pissing me off"
"Well where I'm from Heathcliff leads the dead rabbits. They are a pleasant sort although I wouldn't be surprised -
โWhat did you say?
โHe reopens his book, glancing at the page in the Book of Vengeance where the limbus company was notedโ
โNo, no, no. I've seen them both on the same team. ยฟWhat's this about "leader of the Dead Rabbits"?
[she stood up fully, she taller then last time he saw her?]
"Now ye are making a mistake thinking me and the dead rabbits leader are friends."
[none of this information is familiar to him.]
"Not part of no syndicate, Orange Wake works for the Rachel office."
โYour friend Heathcliff is on the list, and since you're in the same group, you'll die with him and the entire Limbus Company.
โcloses the book with some force, leaving it hanging from its gold chains where it wasโ
โDo you understand now, sailor?
"huh? Hair coupons the hell ye on about"
[Tapping The Indigo elders title]
"Why ye only got him on his title huh? Seems only fair ye should have mine in there too."
[She seemed rather made about that]
"But no seriously what's this about hair coupons I take care of mine myself"
โThere's the name of that old geezer who harpooned me through the shoulder... But I was so focused on my revenge against you for stealing MY hair coupons
โMentioning the latter with some anger at the memory of what happened at U Corp.โ
"I was actually expecting resistance to that question"
[She's clearly actually reading each page. Probably faster then he's is turning them]
"Was actually just expecting names, know what they say, assumptions make an ass of you and me. Or in this case just me"
โHe shows you page by page, every rule, every punishment, every poor devil who was penalized for disrespecting the middleโ
โAs real as you can see here
"You'd have better luck with Elder by this point"
[This sailor isn't of the same world as the original Ishmael]
"Always wondered is the book empty, or does it actually contain the laws of the middle"
โHe picks up the book of revenge, skimming page by page before closing itโ
โ Well, today they're all crossed off... Except for yours, who are still alive.
"Well ye can keep it to yourself!"
"Got sunglasses for a reason, not that you hide where you are looking very well."
[she can see the reflection herself.]
"Ain't ye got someone in your book to piss off"
