[ He's an older Japanese man, his expression is friendly and the crow's feet around his eyes crinkle with his smile of greeting. He is an old-school chain smoker, so best bet a cigarette will be going back and forth between his lips while he talks. ]
Nice to meet you. I thought I would introduce myself. Daigo Dojima.
[ A little salute with his cigarette. ]
I'm from Tokyo, Japan. I'm still trying to get my bearings, I think. No magic or monsters. Not in my Tokyo, anyway.
With that in mind, I'd be interested in improving my... self-defense skills in this new territory. Apparently I've fallen into Autumn, if anyone is open to teaching a magic novice.
On the more mundane side, I'm well-trained with a handgun and street fighting. They're skills I should keep polished up though, yeah?
[ Why is this mellow old Japanese guy well-trained with a gun and kicking people's teeth out? 🤷
He looks off lazily, exhaling smoke. ]
I think that's all the business on my docket, though. Anyone catch anything good?
[ His crooked grin is only a little provoking. It would be fun to win at fishing. ]
action spam;
[ He's set up around any intriguing pools to take a shot with a tried and true fishing rod. He will gladly say hello to anyone else who sets up. If you hunger for monster fish hijinks, please by all means. ]

[ He's curious though, eyes flicking over what he can see in the video. No gun in sight, but there's no sense in brandishing a weapon just to ask about brushing up on skills. ]
no subject
That would be great. I just want to make sure I'll still have a supply of bullets and some maintenance tools.
[ And he apparently has an eye for logistics. ]
no subject
[ He tilts his head to the side slightly as he waves a prosthetic hand dismissively. The concept of gangsters isn't really different from world to world, aside from minor differences. But Vash has never really judged someone based on what organization they're with or what they wear. Eyes are the window to someone's soul, or something like that. ]
no subject
.22's will do.
[ He has a nice Ruger that was smuggled to him from the US. ]
I don't have much capital on me at the moment, but maybe I'll owe you a favor.

I bear the power of Autumn and know some magic. I suppose I could guide you.
no subject
[ Not without doing something really stupid along the way, and he is a bit more conscientious than that. ]
no subject
[ that is technically his role, even if he's not the warm and fuzzy type. ]
Do you have a weapon you wish to test out?
no subject
[ Mostly whatever might be at hand out on the streets. Knives, baseball bats, picking up a trash can and smashing it into someone's face. You know, the usual. ]
Is there an option that combines better with... magic?
[ He's a strategic kind of guy, what can he say. ]
no subject
I suppose a sword or a bow could do nicely. I do not know this . . . gun so I cannot speak for it.

[She's probably not going to be able to help him on the magic front and has no idea what a handgun is, but when it comes to fighting...]
I might be able to help you to keep those skills sharp... but before I promise anything we ought to be sure. I wouldn't want to hurt you.
[Ah, that might be her teasing. Or maybe she's serious. It could be a little of both.]
no subject
Of course, we can see if you completely outclass me first.
no subject
I'm game. When and where?

[ It's Mister Cigarette Man! She bows her head slightly in greeting. ]
It would be unwise to bring a sword to gun fight, so I am afraid I cannot assist in honing your skills. [ No street fighting for her, thanks. ] I hope you are able to find some people who fit what you are looking for, however.
[ She will cheer for him!! ]
I had caught some small fish, but I do not think it was worth entering... What about you?
no subject
[ His smile widens a little. ]
You know, my mother is much better with a sword than I am, too. But I'll find someone who won't kick me around too hard.
[ He is not the best fighter in his own clan, by far. He's pretty middling and wouldn't mind improving that. ]
Went out the other night and caught a pretty big electric catfish that I'm pleased with. Zapped me getting it in to the cooler, too.
no subject
[ O_O She lives in the land of thunder, but she's never heard of such a thing before. And he got zapped, too! That's somehow terrifying. Is it? She doesn't know. But fish can be fearsome creatures, too. ]
How big was it? I hope you did not get injured!
no subject
[ The other hand not curled around the cigarette lifts in a wave, the tips of a few fingers bandaged up. ]
Then I went and grabbed some gloves before I tried again.
[ As for how big... he gestures with his hands. A big fish, but not monster big. ]
Maybe 23 kilograms?

[he shrugs a shoulder] Ain't caught shit yet, though. Working on it.
no subject
Great to hear. Not about the fish, though. Where have you been setting up?
no subject
All over, but right now I'm hanging in the Autumn Segment. Thought maybe that'd give me some luck, but I was wrong.
no subject
[ He clucks his tongue. ]
Sounds like bad luck or bad technique.
[ You can pick which. ]

No magic or monsters? How mundane. Is it safe to assume that all of the lifeforms there lack the ability to manipulate aether?
If so, how does one keep their soul intact?

You mean to say that your people just "exist" and that's it? With no understanding as of "why" or "how"?
