Thank you.

[It'll give her a chance to practice more, at home on her own. Her eyebrows raise the more weapons that he names off, though. She's definitely wondering, Majima.]

That's a lot of weapons.

Yeah, well. You gotta be prepared! Besides, I used to spend a lot of time at the batting cages when I was a kid.

Wonder how that old place is doin' these days. I should drop by once... well, y'know.

Yeah.

[There is so much more to Majima than she knows. She supposes that's true for everyone, though. His life just seems like it's probably been more interesting than most.]

Did you play baseball when you were growing up? Or just hang out at the batting cages?

[ It was interesting, all right... ]

The second one. My bro and I used to hang out there a lot, blow off steam. He could really hit 'em, too.

[ There was a bit of a distant look to Majima's expression -- it seemed like those days were forever ago, even though in absolute terms, it had only been a few years. How could things change so quickly? ]

You ever been?

[She watches him, trying to decipher what that distant look means, exactly. She wonders if his brother is still alive.]

Oh, just once or twice with my dad when I was little. I wasn't very good at it.

I was better at fishing.

Yeah?

[ He perked up at this, instantly engaged. ]

I used to fish a lot back in Sotenbori. Did some here, too, when I first showed up. If you ever wanna go, I bet they'd lend us some rods.
