"Experience." He said simply laying the lit cigarette into the ash tray. "I don't wish to delve deeper into that topic. My past life is my own."

"well then. Your past directly affects your, choices, actions, and opinions now. doesn't it." Ember sighed. "In jack's mind things like morals and good vs. Evil are concepts he's probably never even considered. Things aren't only black and white." She smiled at Lazuli, 'It took me a while to calm my hatred as well.' She thought as she remembered seeking vengeance for her parents murderers and almost going mad in her hatred for them. "I'm not saying jack is right or even that he shouldn't be stopped. But you don't hate a rabid bare even as you put it down, Shizuo." She smiled as she used the same analogy Leena had. "You cant blame an animal for being sick and you cant hate a person when their soul has been killed. Jack does need to be stopped, but I will not respect your hatred of the man as you strive to do so."

Shizuo laughed quietly. "You're stubborn short stuff I'll give you that, but your outlook on this is very childish." He blew smoke into the air. "Talk to me when you grow up a bit and get some experience under your belt. You won't get any respect from me until you do." He tipped Saki, thanking her for refilling his drink. "How are your parents Saki?" He ended the conversation not wanting to continue on with the child.

OOC: Yes Pyro is a girl.
Pyro nudged at the arm of the older male fire calgor. Saki ears glared at both Shizuo, and Ember. "Can't you two get along? You're two are both obviously try to do good, so why does it matter how you accomplish it?" She huffed and the flames around her ears waved dangerously.
Maim smiled at the two antics. She had taken over Joy's temporarily weakened consciousness and regained control of their shared body. "I for one love your antics. They'll please me to no end." She had taken a shine to the newcomer. "Your ideals are very interesting, I do hope you have the power to back it up." She spoke lustfully in her adult voice. "Women do love the strength of a man."

Lazuli smiled softly and nodded. "I'm alright."
Oh dear, she watched the exchange between Shizuo and her sister nervously and could only sigh in relief when Saki stepped in.
Lazuli watched as Joy's whole demeanor changed with an odd curiosity. Those weren't something a little girl would say or look and the way she sounded was very off.

Ember shot dull sparks at the man. They were harmless and went only looked hot, but she just wanted to get his attention fo now. "I have years of experience thankyou. I've been on my own since I was two and a bounty hunter since I was four. I do a multitude of jobs grown men run from." She had stood up and was literally steaming. "I don't care if you chose not to respect me. But if you needle me about my age or use it as an excuse to dismiss me again I will make you understand your mistake." Her voice was liquid fire as she threatened him. She positioned herself between him and Laz. relieved Maim was out so she could defend herself. "Saki. I'm sorry for ignoring your advice, but I've warned this guy three times now. I wont do so again."

Despite the heat radiating off of her sister, Lazuli reached out and gently tugged on her to get her attention. Unintentionally as she did so a thin layer of ice formed to keep her hand protected from the heat.
"Ember," she said softly. It wasn't that she believed her sister incapable, the opposite in fact, but she just didn't want any trouble.

Ember immediately gave into her sister. Giving Shizuo a look that told him he a lucky her sister was more important than anything else. including her pride and temper. She sighed and grabbed Lazuli's hand. "Sorry Laz." She new her sister disliked violence when I wasn't necessary. She tossed enough penins to cover her drinks and a large tip for causing saki stress. "I'm leave'n Saki. Thanks as always." Flit whined as he nudged Pyro in a farewell. He wanted to ply so more but wouldn't be left behind.

"Only a child will use their abilities to get someones attention." Shizuo stamped out his cigarette and paid for his drink. "I'm gonna check on the kid, if you wanna come with Hot-head."

"It's alright," Lazuli said softly with a gentle smile on her face. At Shizuo's comment the girl looked to him and replied with a tone that was not snide, but simply stating a carefully thought out opinion. "And only someone acting like a child would say something to drag this out further..."

Ember's hair was singeing as she was glaring daggers at the man. "Saki, i'm sorry for the commotion." She stepped around the man towing laz behind her. She hadn't held her temper in check in so long. She was really out of practice. Flint could feel Ember's tension. 'no.' He mind spoke to the man and hissed. He ran over and picked a wanted poster off the walls. It was listed for two people. Jared and Loisia. The reward was listed at 1.6 million penins but this was old and it had been raised since. He offered it to the man. 'Ember.... not kids." He tried to explain that the couple and Ember were adversaries and nearly on equal terms. The couple had been notorious for double crossing the fire territory's royals. ending any true government in the territory. Ember smiled an ironic half smirk. "What do ya know, Jared and Loisia are still known around here?" She shook her head. "They really are horrible siblings."

"If you ask me, they're both acting like children." Saki took a look at the bounty. "Who are these two?"
"Ember should learn to respect her elders." Maim smiled leaning in the bar stool. "Hatred could be a useful tool if used correctly." She laughed loudly. "Though this Jack fellow sounds like fun one, one who might even my destructive tendencies."
'Maim don't be mean!' Joy consciously pouted stuck in their shared mind. 'Ember is a nice person.'

"murderers, thieves, terrorists... A bit of everything really." Ember sighed, ignoring Maim's comments. "Jared and Loisia. Their siblings and kinda acquaintances of mine. We take turns hunting each other. it's good practice actually." Flint whined 'almost... died.' He didn't like Ember talking about it like a game. 'not... fun.' Ember sighed. " That's when I was four. Come on, Flint. we need to leave."

"I'm going on ahead Saki." Shizuo straightened his tie and walked out the lighting another cigarette.

Saki got one of the other workers to cover for her. "I'll see you later Ember, it was nice to see you again." She grabbed her jacket and covered up most of her uniform, and made her way to Shizuo.
Maim followed after Lazuli, and Ember. "That one got you riled up Ember, better keep that temper of yours in check." She smirked walking with the young children. "Joy agreed with you if it's any consolation, but then again she'll agree with any other child."
