[Hoo boy. Ok, she could buy the new ones not realizing, but it felt like a really good idea to make sure Tifa was aware, before one of these days the orders came from the top...]
So, you should definitely know this. Everything's all smiles right now, and there's a truce with the three of our gangs working together, but the Sutoku, Tamamo and Shuten are just that. Gangs. When I first got here? There was a war going down between the Shuten and Tamamo. We weren't fighting up top in the streets, so we could be nice to each other where everyone was working. But that pleasure palace they built down below? The turf it's in was turf we were actually fighting over. Like, bats, swords, magic spells, traps. It got ugly.
Far as I know nobody actually died. They've got some pretty impressive ways to patch you up around here, but that's not to say it can't happen. These three've got some history, and one of these days? It'll get ugly again.
[There was a momentary pause and she sighed.]
You know, this bounty hunter business'll probably get a little ugly, come to think of it. It's a lot of money. I don't actually care. Promise. It's not personal with me, and I've got a lot of friends in Sutoku, and I might have a few in Shuten I actually like. There's a bunch of folks I know who are the same way. They do what they're told, and they avoid fights, but if things boil over, orders are orders. Just, you know, for your own sake? Just remember that one of these days, the brass might give you an order to fight.
...
I'll promise to warn you away first if it happens. I don't pick fights unless it's fun for both of us [Her world was weird] or I really really don't like someone. So I'll give you a heads up if something happens.
