I was a stay-at home husband. Wife was really big on her career.
...So much she decided she liked it more than me or our kid.
So I had to find a job and didn't know what to do, I didn't have any skills. I barely graduated high school. I decided to become a cop, partially for money, yeah. But also cause I wanted to help make a safer world for my kid, okay?
[ What a question from the guy who met Yato drunk at Prom... Yato gladly plucks up another thing of beer. He'll save it for when he's feeling especially out of his mind. ]
Much obliged, Gumshoe. I gotta make my fun in here somehow.
[ He withdraws to sit back on his cot, wasting no time in getting cozy again. ]
Arrest some more schmucks for me, would ya? It's real quiet in here and I could use some neighbors.

I didn't decide to be a cop until I was 24.
I was a punk in high-school, then uh.
I met a girl, and we kinda.. weren't responsible. So I had to get responsible in a hurry.

[ Yato sips his beer. ]
So you're a big sappy dad. Makes sense. You're the softest cop I've ever met.
[ He doesn't mean it badly though, given by the distant, thoughtful look on his face. ]
You sure you want a crazed, hand-chopping samurai wannabe on the same streets as your kid?

You're more likely to end up hospitalized cause of them then from me, champ.
...If I thought you were just some lunatic, we wouldn't be talking.

You really are a sap.
[ It's weird. Ichirou has very little reason to give Yato the benefit of the doubt. In a way, he might have more faith in Yato than Yato does.
Yato points at the remainder of Ichirou's pack of beer. ]
Do I have more answers to trade with?
no subject
Sorry, but you're out of things to barter with.
I didn't have to pull teeth though, so you can have a reward. [Which is a last one. He still has a couple, but he's not giving them up.]
