[ she's not a criminal! probably? well, it's a very murky area and hawke suddenly looks kind of sheepish. ]
I was more of... the local busybody? You know, doing odd jobs for coin and saving the city on occasion. It wasn't really a job per se but some people asked me to save their cats and others asked me to go slay dragons and as long as the coin was good, I was fine with it.
[ she pauses, taking a bite of curry. ]
And, you know, it isn't really my fault the city guard is too incompetent to do their jobs. If people end up asking me to do things instead, is that truly my fault? I think not!
Gintoki is a friend of mine. We have been friends since childhood. He has starking white hair and hardly any tact. Most of the time, he is relatively useless.
Oh. I see. Is it because you're nervous of the consequences?
[ because katsura's being so insulting, of course.
but huh, what an odd line of questioning. she takes a bit of curry as she thinks before shrugging. ]
I'm wary of the intent. If something was technically illegal but just, I'd most likely do it. I have the skills to take care of things others can't, after all. Yet if it's illegal and someone requests it because they're feeling petty or vindictive or what have you -- I'm no one's errand girl, I can turn them down.

[ RUDE. ]
But if somebody paid you money to do something a criminal would do, would you do it?
