Kim Kitsuragi: "And one more thing -- as you've seen, these sorts of attitudes are quite common in Martinaise. So I expect this to happen again. And again..."
54
Kim Kitsuragi: "I've had this conversation enough times in my life. From now on, I'm going to stay out of it. How you choose to respond is your business." He concludes: "But be careful. Now, let's move on."
2->54

You: "Relax, I was practising the time-honoured technique known as the 'lie'."
50
Kim Kitsuragi: "I suppose that's a relief. Just be careful how often you avail yourself of this 'technique'. A lie may be useful in the short-term, but they have a way of catching up with you later."
3->50

Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant falls silent and looks down at his boots. Whether he thinks you have a point or not, he isn't saying. It's unclear what this means for your relationship. Then he speaks...

You: "It's not about me. As police officers, we gain nothing by staking out the moral high ground over him."
28
Kim Kitsuragi: "Our position in Revachol is already precarious: Many people think we're vigilantes as it is. I can't have them thinking we're *racist* vigilantes to boot."
5->28
6
Kim Kitsuragi: "Wonderful." The lieutenant falls silent. His expression is hard to read, but it certainly doesn't look *happy*. Then he speaks...
6->25
7
You: "Wait, am I becoming some sort of Death's Head Racist suddenly?!"
21
Kim Kitsuragi: "I don't know what you mean by *death's head* but it certainly looks like you're becoming a racist, officer."
7->21
8
You: "I've got nothing against them, but we have a responsibility to future generations."
8->6

Kim Kitsuragi: "And what exactly do you think should happen to those with *undesirable* traits?"

9->8
22
You: (Shrug.) "Let Nature sort them out."
9->22
10
Rhetoric: Wait a second. Are you sure you want to go there? Even if you succeed, you're going to fail.

Kim Kitsuragi: "I've had this conversation enough times in my life. From now on, I'm going to stay out of it. How you choose to respond is your business." He concludes: "Now -- let's get back to the task at hand."
12
Rhetoric: Hoo boy, we're really doing this.

You: "Of course. But he's also not entirely responsible for them. I haven't been in this world for long -- already I'm a product of my environment."
49
Kim Kitsuragi: "There are tens of thousands of people who grew up in Martinaise and somehow managed to avoid becoming racists who yell 'Come here, saffron picker' at passers by."
13->49
14
Kim Kitsuragi: "Apology accepted, detective." The lieutenant relaxes. A weight seems to have been lifted from his shoulders.

67
You: On second thought, maybe I don't.
16->67
44
Kim Kitsuragi: "Stop right there. I know what you're going to say. Don't. Also -- these attitudes are quite common in Martinaise. So I expect this to happen again. And again."
17->44
18
Kim Kitsuragi: "I'm going to *stop* this conversation." He makes a sudden hand gesture. An open palm. "This is Martinaise. People have certain attitudes here. You will find plenty of citizens to agree with you. As for me..."

You: "That doesn't mean they don't have rights. If they're perpetrators, then we punish, if they're victims, then we help. That's all there is."

Kim Kitsuragi: "Well," he says after taking a moment to collect himself. "You've made your views on the subject quite clear..." Another little pause.
22->30

Kim Kitsuragi: "And what point would that be?"

27
You: "I don't really want to talk about it." [Leave.]

Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant looks at you in silence, though you cannot discern if he's judging you or not. "I suppose your reasons are your own."
27->48

29
You: Forget it, this was a dumb idea.
72
Rhetoric: Now you're thinking sensibly.
29->72
30->25
31
You: "I was just trying to convey that I understood his grievances and wasn't judging him for having them."
47
Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant narrows his gaze. "So you *don't* find his views... say, *unbefitting of a police officer*?"

Rhetoric: Are you sure about that?

53
Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant says nothing, waiting for you to continue.

You: "It's only rational for a society to select for the most desirable traits. That's how it works in Nature."
