There's plenty of space in here.

[ It is roomy, like there's plenty of room for more equipment and work benches and vehicles. It will take a while to upgrade the space, just like it will take time to upgrade the bike. ]

I'll keep my eye out for a project for you.

[ Or two. Building up some stock of bikes and parts is an inevitable part of really maintaining a racing group. ]

[ardencies]

[Dettlaff pulls his gaze away from the screen to his surroundings; it’s plenty empty, room for more to be built-up in here, but intriguing nonetheless to him.]

Is this place...

[How to word it? From Daigo’s comments, it seems to imply a more permanent endeavor than a one-day visit.]

...yours? An area for your “projects”?

[indignitas]

I'm renting it for now. Maybe I'll find a space to buy in the future.

[ He leans back on one of the work benches lazily. ]

In movies you'll see people with garages attached to their homes, but there's no room for that in Tokyo. It's pretty normal to find some local garage where you can do any maintenance, and meet up with other... [ Yyyakuza ] enthusiasts.

[ardencies]

...Enthusiasts.

[Okay, Dettlaff might be ignorant when it comes to human complexities, but he's not completely daft: he knows a euphemism when he hears one. And he's blunt enough to ask about it further without equal delicacy.]

Will these enthusiasts being doing more than maintenance, and speaking about their vehicles?

[indignitas]

[ He chuckles, looking down at nothing for a moment. He hasn't really fessed up to anyone about the menace he's been making of himself on the streets of Sumarlok. He is reminded of when he'd first gotten a car and Kashiwagi had caught him by the back of his shirt to chew him out for racing. Of course Wagi is dead now, and the memory is bittersweet. ]

That would depend. Custom vehicles draw a certain crowd. There's a lot of money in it, and you can move those investments around under the table easily... Not to mention all the money you can pull from races and rallies.

[ He talked around the question a little bit, but he wasn't too subtle either. Some yakuza shit may sometimes be discussed inside the garage. He lights a cigarette as he returns his gaze to Dettlaff and the bike. Daigo, your crime lord is showing... ]

But mostly maintenance and vehicles.
