Zanka Nijiku : Rare for you to contact me, Enjin. |
(0:00:13.98) |
Zanka Nijiku : What're you up— |
(0:00:18.52) |
Zanka Nijiku : Huh? |
(0:00:20.88) |
Zanka Nijiku : You found a natural talent? |
(0:00:22.94) |
Enjin : That's right. |
(0:00:25.21) |
Enjin : Happened across him in No Man's Land. |
(0:00:26.21) |
Enjin : Turns out he's got powers. |
(0:00:29.08) |
Enjin : Never seen anything quite like them, either. |
(0:00:32.22) |
Enjin : I've recruited him for the Cleaners. |
(0:00:35.20) |
Enjin : I'll introduce you two once I'm done here. |
(0:00:38.19) |
Enjin : Later. |
(0:00:41.69) |
Rudo Surebrec : Hey, I never said I was joining your weird gang. |
(0:00:43.83) |
Enjin : You think you're in a position to refuse? |
(0:00:47.51) |
Rudo Surebrec : I told you, I've gotta get back up to the— |
(0:00:49.77) |
Rudo Surebrec : Wh-Who's this old man?! |
(0:00:54.56) |
Enjin : You better thank me, kiddo. |
(0:01:12.40) |
Rudo Surebrec : Asshole. |
(0:01:14.60) |
Rudo Surebrec : Thanks for paying. |
(0:01:31.78) |
Rudo Surebrec : But seriously, all I want is info. |
(0:01:35.27) |
Rudo Surebrec : I don't have time to be joining your Clea— |
(0:01:37.77) |
Enjin : I'd hoped the whole kidnapping thing |
(0:01:39.96) |
Enjin : would have shown you how people down here view Sphereites. |
(0:01:41.85) |
Enjin : You're free to ask around if you want, |
(0:01:46.34) |
Enjin : but you're screwed if they find out who you are. |
(0:01:49.40) |
Enjin : To put it in plainer terms... |
(0:01:54.86) |
Enjin : This isn't the kind of place where info comes free. |
(0:01:58.75) |
Enjin : Shut up and follow me. |
(0:02:03.91) |
Enjin : Well, someone's got an appetite. |
(0:04:00.33) |
Enjin : You barfed up a storm after that garbage you ate, |
(0:04:03.99) |
Enjin : so it figures you'd be hungry. |
(0:04:07.64) |
Rudo Surebrec : I thought the Pit—the Ground— would be nothing but trash, |
(0:04:12.36) |
Rudo Surebrec : but they've got real cities and food and everything. |
(0:04:17.62) |
Enjin : So, what's your name? |
(0:04:25.61) |
Rudo Surebrec : Rudo. |
(0:04:28.77) |
Enjin : Rudo, huh? |
(0:04:30.43) |
Enjin : Good name. |
(0:04:32.61) |
Rudo Surebrec : S-Sure. |
(0:04:39.38) |
Enjin : All right, here comes your Ground life primer. |
(0:04:41.50) |
Enjin : Here on the Ground, trash isn't the only thing that tends to build up. |
(0:04:47.12) |
Enjin : The same goes for emotions— what we call "Anima." |
(0:04:50.01) |
Enjin : Sometimes Anima converts into energy, |
(0:04:52.91) |
Enjin : which has a variety of consequences. |
(0:04:55.90) |
Enjin : The birth of a trash beast is one such consequence. |
(0:04:59.26) |
Enjin : They'll attack humans on sight. |
(0:05:05.26) |
Enjin : Generally, they stick to the dump areas outside, |
(0:05:08.79) |
Enjin : but they'll come into the cities from time to time, too. |
(0:05:13.30) |
Rudo Surebrec : Why not fortify the whole city, then? |
(0:05:17.81) |
Enjin : Human nature—we can't stay cooped up forever. |
(0:05:20.85) |
Rudo Surebrec : Makes sense. |
(0:05:26.83) |
Enjin : Like I said, regular weapons don't work on trash beasts. |
(0:05:28.45) |
Enjin : Their cores are made of Anima. |
(0:05:33.89) |
Enjin : Your gloves can beat them, though. |
(0:05:36.64) |
Rudo Surebrec : These... |
(0:05:41.26) |
Enjin : Like the knife a chef keeps dutifully sharpened for years; |
(0:05:43.76) |
Enjin : like the trusty pen kept at a writer's side... |
(0:05:47.37) |
Enjin : When a person treats an object with care for a long time, |
(0:05:50.74) |
Enjin : Anima inhabits it. |
(0:05:55.54) |
Enjin : We call objects like that "vital instruments." |
(0:05:58.42) |
Enjin : The Anima of a trash beast's core can only be defeated by the Anima of a vital instrument. |
(0:06:03.45) |
Enjin : But there aren't many people who can draw out the power of a vital instrument. |
(0:06:08.68) |
Rudo Surebrec : And I'm one of the people who can? |
(0:06:14.94) |
Enjin : That's right. |
(0:06:19.35) |
Enjin : You and I both have that power. |
(0:06:20.95) |
Enjin : We're known as Givers. |
(0:06:23.67) |
Rudo Surebrec : Regto was right all along. |
(0:06:29.58) |
Enjin : In other words... |
(0:06:35.73) |
Enjin : the Cleaners are a gang of trash beast exterminators! |
(0:06:37.33) |
Enjin : And we need more Givers. |
(0:06:40.45) |
Rudo Surebrec : That's why you want to recruit me? |
(0:06:43.23) |
Rudo Surebrec : And if I join you, you'll really teach me how to get back up there? |
(0:06:46.19) |
Enjin : Well, the thing of it is... |
(0:06:51.86) |
Enjin : I don't have the slightest idea how you get up there. |
(0:06:54.51) |
Rudo Surebrec : But you totally acted like you did! |
(0:06:59.38) |
Enjin : Never said
I did, though. |
(0:07:01.69) |
Rudo Surebrec : You— |
(0:07:03.88) |
Enjin : Our boss is pretty well-informed, though. |
(0:07:07.09) |
Enjin : Might know a thing or two. |
(0:07:10.01) |
Rudo Surebrec : So I've gotta meet your boss first?! |
(0:07:13.16) |
Enjin : Who gave you those gloves? |
(0:07:17.68) |
Rudo Surebrec : My dad. |
(0:07:22.52) |
Rudo Surebrec : These gloves are like... |
(0:07:24.50) |
Rudo Surebrec : the only thing I have to remember him by. |
(0:07:29.45) |
Enjin : Got it. |
(0:07:35.67) |
Enjin : That explains why you take such good care of those beat-up old things. |
(0:07:37.35) |
Enjin : "When something matters to you, you should take care of it." |
(0:07:42.74) |
Enjin : It's a simple idea, but lots of people can't do it. |
(0:07:45.83) |
Enjin : They're good gloves. They've got soul. |
(0:07:49.23) |
Enjin : Treat them with care, okay? |
(0:07:51.87) |
Enjin : Whoops. |
(0:08:03.23) |
Enjin : Anyway, this ends your Ground life primer. |
(0:08:04.88) |
Enjin : Just wait here a minute and— |
(0:08:08.15) |
Rudo Surebrec : Enjin. |
(0:08:09.31) |
Rudo Surebrec : Um... |
(0:08:11.15) |
Rudo Surebrec : Sorry I didn't say it earlier, but I owe you. |
(0:08:12.86) |
Rudo Surebrec : For everything. |
(0:08:15.75) |
Enjin : I'm giving you a little money for now. |
(0:08:22.50) |
Enjin : Don't spend it all in one place. |
(0:08:24.82) |
Rudo Surebrec : Money, too? |
(0:08:26.44) |
Rudo Surebrec : You sure about this? |
(0:08:28.48) |
Enjin : Totally sure! |
(0:08:29.74) |
Enjin : It's what I made from selling your clothes. |
(0:08:31.55) |
Enjin : It's also how I paid for your treatment and the food. |
(0:08:35.23) |
Enjin : So think nothing of it, okay? |
(0:08:37.41) |
Enjin : For real. I mean it. |
(0:08:39.92) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm gonna kick your ass! |
(0:08:43.80) |
Enjin : You couldn't go around in those Sphereite threads down here anyway. |
(0:08:46.16) |
Enjin : Besides, took you long enough to notice. |
(0:08:50.38) |
Rudo Surebrec : Is this always how you— |
(0:08:52.78) |
Enjin : Anyway, I'm gonna meet up with your trainer. |
(0:08:55.60) |
Enjin : You just wait here. |
(0:08:59.12) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm quitting these jerks the second I find a way up there! |
(0:09:00.98) |
Rudo Surebrec : My money! |
(0:09:08.19) |
Rudo Surebrec : That's my money! |
(0:09:09.92) |
Rudo Surebrec : Get back here, you asshole cat! |
(0:09:11.11) |
Rudo Surebrec : Get back here! |
(0:09:27.69) |
Rudo Surebrec : Wasting my damn time... |
(0:09:36.50) |
Rudo Surebrec : Quit struggling— |
(0:09:38.99) |
Zanka Nijiku : Hey. |
(0:09:41.46) |
Zanka Nijiku : That's mine. |
(0:09:47.98) |
Zanka Nijiku : Give it back, you little shit. |
(0:09:50.77) |
Rudo Surebrec : The hell are you talking about? |
(0:09:58.57) |
Rudo Surebrec : This money's mine. |
(0:10:01.67) |
Rudo Surebrec : What kind of stupid— |
(0:10:03.46) |
Zanka Nijiku : Not that. |
(0:10:04.67) |
Zanka Nijiku : The stick. |
(0:10:06.30) |
Rudo Surebrec : This? |
(0:10:08.47) |
Rudo Surebrec : It's just a dumb stick. |
(0:10:11.89) |
Rudo Surebrec : What's with this guy? |
(0:10:23.70) |
Rudo Surebrec : That's the same emblem Enjin wears... |
(0:10:26.37) |
Zanka Nijiku : You think you can steal someone's treasure and get off scot-free? |
(0:10:29.35) |
Rudo Surebrec : Is he... a Cleaner? |
(0:10:37.38) |
Zanka Nijiku : Looks like I better teach you a lesson. |
(0:10:42.98) |
Zanka Nijiku : I'll give you a taste of my Lovely Assistaff. |
(0:10:47.69) |
Zanka Nijiku : You steal a person's treasure, |
(0:10:57.83) |
Zanka Nijiku : you better be prepared to deal with the consequences... |
(0:11:00.87) |
Zanka Nijiku : Rudo, the new talent. |
(0:11:05.55) |
Rudo Surebrec : You know my name? |
(0:11:08.48) |
Rudo Surebrec : So you really are with the Cleaners? |
(0:11:10.58) |
Zanka Nijiku : Yeah, Enjin filled me in about you. |
(0:11:12.44) |
Zanka Nijiku : I'm with the Akuta Cleaners. |
(0:11:16.99) |
Zanka Nijiku : The name's Zanka Nijiku. |
(0:11:19.93) |
Zanka Nijiku : Enjin's put me in charge of your training. |
(0:11:21.69) |
Zanka Nijiku : Never thought I'd have to start with something as basic |
(0:11:26.62) |
Zanka Nijiku : as "don't steal from people if you value your hide." |
(0:11:31.22) |
Rudo Surebrec : I was just using it to get my money back from the thieving cat! |
(0:11:35.44) |
Zanka Nijiku : Go tell your daddy he didn't raise you right. |
(0:11:39.86) |
Rudo Surebrec : This asshole doesn't know a single thing... |
(0:11:45.07) |
Rudo Surebrec : and he's insulting Regto?! |
(0:11:49.17) |
Regto : Rudo. |
(0:11:52.62) |
Regto : If you want someone to listen to you, |
(0:11:54.24) |
Regto : try making the first concession. |
(0:11:56.98) |
Regto : I bet Chiwa hates guys with a hair-trigger temper. |
(0:12:02.38) |
Regto : You've got to cool off and think about how the other person feels. |
(0:12:09.85) |
Rudo Surebrec : How the other person feels... |
(0:12:18.15) |
Rudo Surebrec : That's right. |
(0:12:20.71) |
Rudo Surebrec : He thinks I took something he cares about. |
(0:12:22.07) |
Rudo Surebrec : He's mad about that. |
(0:12:25.45) |
Rudo Surebrec : If someone took my gloves, I'd feel the same way. |
(0:12:27.48) |
Rudo Surebrec : I didn't mean to take it. |
(0:12:34.02) |
Rudo Surebrec : I didn't realize it was your treasure. |
(0:12:36.28) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm sorry. |
(0:12:41.59) |
Zanka Nijiku : Oh, 'zat so? |
(0:12:49.60) |
Zanka Nijiku : You did give it right back, I guess. |
(0:12:51.47) |
Zanka Nijiku : I'm sorry about that, too. |
(0:12:54.38) |
Zanka Nijiku : It's my treasure an' all, so I kinda lost my temper. |
(0:12:56.53) |
Zanka Nijiku : Sorry to scare you. |
(0:13:01.11) |
Rudo Surebrec : I think that's the first time I ever defused a situation! |
(0:13:05.83) |
Rudo Surebrec : Regto was totally right! |
(0:13:09.39) |
Zanka Nijiku : You're joinin' the Cleaners now, right? |
(0:13:12.27) |
Zanka Nijiku : Guess we got off on the wrong foot. |
(0:13:14.82) |
Zanka Nijiku : Let's work together now! |
(0:13:17.56) |
Rudo Surebrec : S-Sure... |
(0:13:19.52) |
Zanka Nijiku : So, what's your vital instrument? |
(0:13:20.88) |
Zanka Nijiku : What can you do with it? |
(0:13:23.08) |
Rudo Surebrec : I think it's the gloves. |
(0:13:25.64) |
Rudo Surebrec : I don't really know what I... do with them. |
(0:13:28.21) |
Zanka Nijiku : These, huh? |
(0:13:31.16) |
Zanka Nijiku : Heck, those gloves rule! |
(0:13:34.24) |
Rudo Surebrec : He looks like a different person all of a sudden. |
(0:13:36.77) |
Zanka Nijiku : Where'd you get 'em? |
(0:13:37.69) |
Zanka Nijiku : Never seen that mark before... |
(0:13:39.57) |
Rudo Surebrec : Is it because he's smiling? |
(0:13:41.43) |
Rudo Surebrec : Smiling... |
(0:13:43.39) |
Rudo Surebrec : Smiling! |
(0:13:44.88) |
Rudo Surebrec : That's right! Regto told me to fix my sour look... |
(0:13:46.58) |
Zanka Nijiku : By the way, my vital instrument's just a staff, see? |
(0:13:50.52) |
Rudo Surebrec : So a smile really makes that big a difference... |
(0:13:50.87) |
Rudo Surebrec : But can I smile? |
(0:13:55.00) |
Zanka Nijiku : I mean, the scuzzballs out there tease me over havin' "just a staff," |
(0:13:55.33) |
Rudo Surebrec : I practiced it so much up there... |
(0:13:56.93) |
Zanka Nijiku : but it's still my precious treasure... |
(0:13:59.43) |
Rudo Surebrec : I should be able to do it by now! |
(0:13:59.43) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm gonna do it... |
(0:14:01.53) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'll do it, you son of a bitch! |
(0:14:03.84) |
Zanka Nijiku : By the way, what made you wanna join the Cleaners? |
(0:14:06.72) |
Rudo Surebrec : I wouldn't say I joined. |
(0:14:11.70) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm just lending a hand until I get what I'm after! |
(0:14:14.03) |
Zanka Nijiku : The hell's that expression?! |
(0:14:22.25) |
Zanka Nijiku : You makin' fun of me, you scuzzball?! |
(0:14:24.28) |
Rudo Surebrec : I-I don't get it! Why are you mad again? |
(0:14:27.91) |
Rudo Surebrec : That was the best smile I've ever managed! |
(0:14:30.95) |
Zanka Nijiku : In what world was that
a smile? |
(0:14:33.20) |
Zanka Nijiku : That was the creepiest damn thing I ever seen! |
(0:14:35.87) |
Rudo Surebrec : Damn it. What'd I do wrong now? |
(0:14:38.41) |
Rudo Surebrec : Eyes open too wide? Should I have kept my lips closed?! |
(0:14:41.08) |
Rudo Surebrec : In that case... |
(0:14:46.46) |
Zanka Nijiku : Are you nuts or somethin'?! |
(0:14:52.90) |
Zanka Nijiku : I let you off the hook, and you're throwin' it in my face?! |
(0:14:55.89) |
Zanka Nijiku : Who the hell d'you think you are, scuzzball?! |
(0:14:58.56) |
Rudo Surebrec : Oh, shove it! That's my line! |
(0:15:00.65) |
Rudo Surebrec : What's wrong with smiling during a basic conversation?! |
(0:15:03.33) |
Zanka Nijiku : You think you're hot stuff 'cause Enjin called you a natural! |
(0:15:06.42) |
Zanka Nijiku : We put our asses on the line against trash beasts and other dangers every damn day! |
(0:15:09.54) |
Zanka Nijiku : And you're "just lending a hand until you get what you're after"?! |
(0:15:14.52) |
Zanka Nijiku : If you can't even look serious when you talk about it, it must be one shitty-ass end goal! |
(0:15:18.53) |
Regto : Change this shit heap of a world! |
(0:15:24.23) |
Rudo Surebrec : What'd you just say? |
(0:15:33.82) |
Rudo Surebrec : "Shitty-ass end goal"? |
(0:15:37.06) |
Rudo Surebrec : I'm serious about this. I'm giving it all I've got. |
(0:15:40.81) |
Rudo Surebrec : So you'd better not talk trash about it, asshole! |
(0:15:44.45) |
Zanka Nijiku : Yeah, I figured. |
(0:15:49.65) |
Zanka Nijiku : The second I met you, I knew we wouldn't get along! |
(0:15:52.02) |
Rudo Surebrec : Same here. |
(0:16:03.20) |
Zanka Nijiku : I thought your vital instrument was the gloves. |
(0:16:08.11) |
Zanka Nijiku : Wait, are you... |
(0:16:11.43) |
Zanka Nijiku : Your ability... |
(0:16:14.43) |
Zanka Nijiku : You can turn any object you touch into a vital instrument?! |
(0:16:16.68) |
Zanka Nijiku : You can turn any object you touch into a vital instrument... |
(0:16:27.21) |
Zanka Nijiku : Well, that explains it. No wonder he called you a natural. |
(0:16:34.07) |
Zanka Nijiku : But if natural talent's all you got... |
(0:16:40.24) |
Zanka Nijiku : You'll never beat a mediocrity like me. |
(0:16:43.79) |
Rudo Surebrec : From above? When did it— |
(0:16:51.55) |
Zanka Nijiku : Gotta be faster than that, Mr. Natural! |
(0:17:00.52) |
Zanka Nijiku : Your vital instrument's the only thing special about you. |
(0:17:03.10) |
Zanka Nijiku : Mine's just a stick, see? |
(0:17:05.79) |
Zanka Nijiku : That was a sad excuse for offense. |
(0:17:17.87) |
Zanka Nijiku : Looks like power's all you got, scuzzball. |
(0:17:20.68) |
Zanka Nijiku : What the heck? |
(0:17:25.20) |
Zanka Nijiku : H-Hey, are you... |
(0:17:32.60) |
Zanka Nijiku : Usin' a plunger?! |
(0:17:37.91) |
Rudo Surebrec : A what? |
(0:17:40.38) |
Zanka Nijiku : You know! A plunger! |
(0:17:41.75) |
Zanka Nijiku : The thing you use when poo— |
(0:17:43.41) |
Rudo Surebrec : I got no idea what you're talking about, |
(0:17:46.23) |
Rudo Surebrec : but it's my turn for payback! |
(0:17:49.07) |
Zanka Nijiku : Close call! |
(0:17:57.27) |
Rudo Surebrec : What's with that guy? What got him all freaked out? |
(0:18:02.02) |
Rudo Surebrec : I dunno what this thing is, but it's working great! |
(0:18:05.03) |
Zanka Nijiku : Wait! Wait! Timeout, okay?! |
(0:18:08.78) |
Zanka Nijiku : Stop swinging that thing around! |
(0:18:12.39) |
Zanka Nijiku : I said, stay back! |
(0:18:31.19) |
Zanka Nijiku : Knock it off already! |
(0:18:36.98) |
Enjin : Hey, you two buddied up already? |
(0:19:40.99) |
Enjin : Are you serious?! |
(0:19:56.55) |
Enjin : You sealed the deal with a poop barrage?! |
(0:19:58.59) |
Enjin : That's the craziest thing I've ever heard! |
(0:20:02.46) |
Zanka Nijiku : I've never been humiliated by poop before. |
