[ Tezcatlipoca can tell that there’s likely more to this story than what Silco explains here. Probably a hell of a lot more, and it’s something he’ll be taking a look at for sure when he has the time. This seems like the place he’s more likely to call “home” for the time being, so it’s best to know what its deal is. Especially if he gets into something like making guns, since he imagines that could only be done down here.

But that amounts to professional curiosity. Tezcatlipoca is a careful, meticulous planner, though he doesn’t give of that impression. Personally speaking? He looks satisfied by Silco’s explanation. ]

[ He can see people being easily taken in by the guy, but whether that’s for their benefit or detriment…? Well, doesn’t matter, actually. It’s conflict either way. ]

We’ll talk business and scientific discovery once I get settled. I have a feeling that Kowloon would be considered legit if they got a solid little arsenal in their hands. And I’m getting fond enough of the place already that you’re more likely to receive my “blessing”.

[ He snickers, since the air quotes around blessing are clear. It’s not something divine. It’s just guns. ]

But for now! Tell me about the entertainment! Everything else, that makes sense, but this is the party scene too, huh?
