[ As it happens, the boy's voice could be a little quieter, a little more distant - possibly, if he'd ridden in with a horde of the undead. ]

How do you... resign?

[ Slight pause. ]

When I tried to, they weren't the right words. Right sounding. Right on paper. Right to think abou - ...right. Sorry. That's impolite to ask all of a sudden, without a proper greeting. My bad.

[ A hint louder, more rehearsed - ]

Good day. Pleased to meet you. How do you do.

[ And now back to the pathetic old track. ]

If it's all the same to you: how do you resign from something like this?

Try hooting.

[deadcenter]

I don't hoot! I already said I'm not an owl!

audio;

[extradite]

It's not that I don't believe you...

[deadcenter]

Seriously though, we all had codenames in prison. There was Woodpecker, Hummingbird, Mockingbird, Owl, Game Fowl, Condor- the list goes on.

audio;

[extradite]

I thought prison was the kind of secret people tried to keep.

audio;

[deadcenter]

Well I don't really give a fuck- so why should I keep it a secret?

audio;

[extradite]

It isn't a rule I made. Or one I thought an owl could rebel from.

audio;

[deadcenter]

I told you, I'm Crow!

[he just growls at that, really.... then he sighs.]

Is Senji easier to remember? Shit....

audio;

[extradite]

...it's fine. I don't mind calling you an owl.

audio;

[deadcenter]

You're pushin' your damn luck kid!

audio;

[extradite]

-- sorry. Sorry.

[ deep breath, deeeeep breath - ]

Senji.

audio;

[deadcenter]

There we go! Was that so hard?

audio;

[extradite]

[ mumbled for a short infinity ]

It sounds too much like my name.

audio;

[deadcenter]

[he groans.]

You're so damn picky- that's why I told you to call me Crow.

audio;

[extradite]

Crows live off ruining harvests, don't they? Calling someone that... it's an insult.

I don't want to insult someone every time.

audio;

[deadcenter]

Seriously, it ain't an insult.

There's not much that offends me anyways.

audio;

[extradite]

I won't.

audio;

[deadcenter]

Wow, you have some serious issues with birds it seems.

My full name is Kiyomasa Senji, if that helps you figure anything out about what to call me. [but no one calls him by his first name....]

audio; 1/3

[extradite]

Kiyo... ma...

audio;

[extradite]

Saying it outright like that, that's impolite too.

audio;

[extradite]

...sorry. It's your pick, in the end. I'll use what you like.

audio;

[deadcenter]

And I'm tellin' ya I don't give a fuck.

audio;

[extradite]

Don't give me that choice. I told you what to call me. You're supposed to decide on what to be called too.

audio;

[deadcenter]

I said....

[god dammit. He told him to call him Senji and that wasn't enough, Crow was too confusing- and Kiyomasa is too impolite...]

...Whatever, even if Senji is kinda close to Shinji, you can still say it right?

audio;

[extradite]

[ a (squeaky) sound of approval! ]

Mmmmmmmm! Senji.
