video @Yamamoto

[He fiddles with the screen after he first appears for a moment. Once he has it set he gives a big thumbs up to the camera with a smile. Excuse the slightly sweaty teenager in his sword practice clothing. He has been training when he gets the chance.]

Yo, I'm Takeshi Yamamoto, are there any places good for sword training?

[He has been exploring but he misses the dojo where he usually trains. He has one more question but first, a sparrow who looks to be made of rain flutters around his head while a pup with three short swords with blades appearing rain made as well pops up to lick his face. He laughs.]

Oh, Jiro and Kojiro say hi too. Does anyone need any help with projects or jobs? [He would like to keep training but also get involved in helping around Anchor any way he can.]

[It's like a light switch off and on, gone is the serious look. Back comes the slightly puzzled looking teenager. He is getting lost here, never mind. Onward and upward, the only way to go.]

Huh? But you were the one who said, well what you said. [That was a lot of words man. He can't repeat them all] they won't hurt anyone unless I attack with them.

[Which without a really, really good reason, he won't.]

[ What a curious shift... Starscream's not sure what to make of the rapid changes in demeanor. ]

In that, you might actually find some interest. People here are generally spoiling for something to challenge them.

[ Or just looking to cause trouble *cough*Kabal*cough* ]

[They are par for the course with Yamamoto, though this chipper young man is usually the one everyone sees.]

I don't fight for fun. [He does not like violence, he is a hitman who tries his hardest not to kill his opponent after all.]

[He may use his blade on Kabal...someday when they meet face to face. That guy could piss him off for sure.]

[ amused: ] No constitution for it?

That's not it but fighting just to fight makes no sense. We fight to protect the people we love. [Back to that determined, young man. He is actually masterful in battle, it surprises everyone the first time. Because he has what should be called battle mode or baseball mode, basically when this kid gets serious, he gets "serious"]

Don't be absurd. The only reason to fight is to win. The trappings of that -- protection, conquest, revenge -- are all pointless if you don't succeed.

There's no point if we don't win. But fighting to protect those you love means you fight harder because you have a purpose.

Perhaps.

[ He doesn't necessarily agree, but he chooses not to argue the point. Undoubtedly his perspective is skewed by several million years of war, and conquest, and loss. ]

What other reason is there to fight?

[Really, he can think of no stronger motivation than the people in his heart.]

[ Starscream sounds... weary. ]

To make everything else worth it.

[Yamamoto still just sounds confused. He does not get it, without his friends, his dad, he wouldn't be alive. He needs them like most people need air, they give him his strength to be their sword.]

But, don't they make everything worth it?

[ Abruptly, Starscream does not like this line of conversation. He hangs up without another word. ]
