[Oh, Silco was aware. Ragna had signed way too fast for someone who had read any manner of fine print. He expected the younger man had read the title, the wage, the hours and where to sign and that was about it. It wouldn't matter here as there was no actual justice system to exploit, no lawyers or trials (felt just like home), but he could make an argument directly to the council and it wasn't learned enough so far to not believe him. Sentencing remained a waste of time, but no matter.

He trusted that people didn't take the system seriously enough to know how to exploit it. Of course, he could try to teach their overseer for his own benefit and he might now that he had established his little empire of dirt. Perhaps that was the best means for control.]

You have, yes. Yet, I've been pushed in the face twice and had my leg mauled once. It seems to me that you need a performance review on that end.

[Well, Silco also didn't operate where he needed Ragna around constantly. There were certain people that he relished winding up after all, and those from his world happened to be a group that inspired a particular nasty side of him. There was no avoiding that kind of danger.]

Will you? It seems that you and I are committed on that fact, but Jinx is not a peaceful individual. She will always find ways to stir things up, as she should.
