[ guns are valid and useful, but admittedly cassian does not need one to keep being lethal. he just has a lot of experience being a sniper. ]

Then say please.

[ he does not need the please. he's just being a jerk. ]

[kill7]

(ok, qi has now categorized cassian as "weird dominant kink" in his head. welcome.)

Why... It's not like I have a guarantee that you will stop pointing that thing at me after I say it.

[evasives]

You are the one who intruded on my dream. I am allowed to be suspicious.

[ well. at least there's the reminder to himself that this is a dream. it shakes him out of the prior "sniper mode activated" mood he'd been in, though the frown on his face is so deep it might be glued on. ]

[kill7]

(qi shrugs, looking around for a second before taking a leap of faith - or of stupidity - and sitting next to the man.)

Yeah, sure, whatever, but... Why would I have anything to do with your dream? I don't even know who you are, man.

[ he doesn't jerk, but he does get tense, never particularly keen on people in his personal space. especially strangers. ]

Have you not dreamwalked before? It might not be yours, but we Displaced as a whole don't know how to keep out. Some people like to interfere.

[ sorry was he supposed to introduce himself?? ]

[kill7]

I have and it keeps happening!! Why would I even interfere?? Again, I don't even know you.

(qi looks as confused as he could look, gesturing several different motions that separately make no sense but together just further remark his confusion.)</small

As I have just said, not knowing someone does not necessarily stop a person from meddling.

[ he can tell qi is confused, but he doesn't particularly want to explain, at least the part about his dream. shouldn't an assassination speak for itself?? ]

Fortunately there is very little left for you to stick your nose in.

[kill7]

Whoever you killed could be an evil Lord, for all I know.

(the man has a gun!! that was pointed at him not too long ago!! it seems rational to him not to interfere. with eyes squinted and attempting to read the man, qi just raised his shoulders and dropped them dramatically.)

And it's a dream, right? It's not real.

[evasives]

Evil governor is more apt.

[ he rarely uses the word evil, even though it's definitely true when it comes to the empire and imperialist sympathies. for him, at any rate. ]

This is nowhere near New Amsterdam, so no. Not real.

[kill7]

(eh. it's fine. it's a dream, nothing for him to do there aside spectate.)

... Sure, yeah. Ok. I'm Qi, by the way.

[evasives]

As you have already said.

[ is he just putting off giving out his own name a little bit longer? probably. ]

Cassian.
