ERWIN

[maneshi]

[from here.]

Nothing to apologize for.

[hardly his fault he doesn't remember anything. although why some people do, and some people don't, remains a mystery.]

You're not the first person that's happened to. We didn't know each other long, but I can do that.

[he's really not one for small talk, but he recognized even back then that erwin could be a valuable ally to have. diplomacy's part of his job, now.]

[imperatives]

Not for long? Then I appreciate you taking the time to remember my name.

[you only want the dog and the kids in this relationship, kakashi.]

[maneshi]

[he's already got eight dogs and you can't have those.]

You fight for your life along side someone, you tend to remember them.

[yeah that's his excuse. although it is true.]

[imperatives]

Is that so? [he gives him a curious stare.] Would you consider yourself primarily a fighter then?

[maneshi]

Is that what I said?

[it's a rhetorical question. erwin are you probing for info here.]

I suppose you could call it that.

[imperatives]

[maybe. but he's not a fighter, that much he knows. if he's asked to fight in a foreign land - he would defer to someone who was more confident of themselves to go toe to toe with whatever foreign alien species that lies in a new world, and kakashi tells him they fought side by side. but erwin knows himself well enough that fighting isn't the thing he's primarily known for.

he gives an odd smile at kakashi, and replies with,] No, it wasn't.

I'm sorry for assuming.

I suppose, given you've been here for a while - you've adjusted enough to this life?

[maneshi]

[he waves a hand affably. no harm done, no offense taken. he assumes erwin was trying to glean informtion about him, which doesn't bother kakashi, because he'd do the same thing. this much erwin could learn from reading his file, anyway.

make no mistake: he's downplaying it, but he is a very skilled fighter.]

Well enough. You have to do it quickly around here.
