Tekka blinked at her newfound companion and rolled the question over in her head. "Depends, you gonna turn me in if I say yes?" She quirked a brow and set her mouth in a tiny frown, as serious a look as she could manage at the moment.

Mitsuo thought about it for a moment. "No." This had nothing to do with any of the cases she had been assigned to, therefore it wasn't her business. Besides, it wasn't as if Tekka was secretly a drug lord or a serial killer. It would be more trouble to turn her in than it was worth.

Tekka's smile returned and she resumed prying on the lid of a crate. "In that case, yep! It's sorta like my profession." And she was PRETTY damn good at it if she did say so herself. Never hurt anyone in the process either, and it was more fun than baking.

"You seem pretty proud of that," the Tora stated. She wasn't being critical, just making an observation. "Is there any particular reason for it?"

Tekka laughed a little. "Well it's like the only PROFITABLE skill I got." She quieted after hearing a few noises from outside the door, though she resumed (albeit more quietly) once it was apparent no one was entering. "And I'm good at it, and... well, the guy who taught me how is kinda dead now, so I feel like I owe it to him? Except..." She sighed and resumed prying at the crate. "I dunno, I'm no good at self-psycho-analysis or whatever."

"That's an odd thing to feel obligated about," the dark-haired Tora mused. She paused suddenly, realizing that might have sounded rude. A second later she gave a mental shrug and continued. She couldn't help it if people got offended when someone was upfront for once. "What I mean to say is that most people are usually motivated into nobility under such circumstances. Being a hero and whatnot."

Tekka blinked, halfway offended by the remark before letting it go. No getting offended by the truth she supposed. "Nah, see..." She pried off the top of the crate with a mighty tug and pushed it more gently aside so as to not draw any attention by the new guard. "That's my brother Jack, he gets the noble roles in things." Besides, he was better suited to it. He was practically Ruru's prince charming, so that worked out pretty well. "And considering Greg and WHY I wanted to learn and all... well..." She shrugged. "Owing isn't QUITE the right word, but it's a way to remember him."

"I see..." Tekka's logic was understandable enough but a little beyond Mitsuo's full comprehension. The only dead people she knew were her parents, and she had been far too young when they passed away to really remember them properly. She typically did things based on internal motivation.

Tekka scooped out some Reese's Cups from the crate before looking up. Actually, it was almost like she had to pull herself up, she was half-in the crate thanks to her smaller stature. "Haven't you done anything like that before?" She wondered aloud, hoping the other tora would answer.

"No. I honestly can't say I have." Mitsuo sat back and adjusted her glasses as she spoke. "I am not close to a great number of people, and therefore losing those I care about doesn't really present itself as a concern."

Tekka's smile shifted to a half-frown as she thought. "Not exactly what I meant..." She explained. "I mean... Well, haven't you ever had someone or something give you the courage to do something that you wouldn't have done otherwise?" Or had that already been answered by the 'not close to people' response? Well, whatever. Ask nothing and nothing will happen, she supposed.

"I suppose so," Mitsuo murmured after a moment of thought. "Maybe not the courage per say, but I have found inspiration in a few people." Although some were purely fictional, such as Sherlock Holmes. "But I tend to act on my own initiative. I don't think I would find much encouragement otherwise." She shifted her gaze to the side, deciding not to go into further detail.
