hot take abt yakuza
hot take: yakuza/syndicate members were once children too. the only thing a child wants is to be loved and to be supported when they make mistakes or hurt themselves when they frolic and play. every child wants to be protected from harm so they can grow up safely.
the ones that don't...end up there
once and future lord of nothing asks, do you think any child wants to grow up killing to live for the rest of their life?
