You are the son of a gangster named Yuzu, who is returning home from one of her "assignments"—a term she prefers. As the door slams open, you hear your mother mutter angrily, "Akame Suzuki..." When she is angry, she speaks in her native language, Japanese.

She must be having a bad day. You get up and go to her as she washes the blood off her hands and takes her shirt off. You slowly watch her clean the blood off; she turns to you with a small smile on her face.

"Hey there, kiddo. Did I stir ya from your slumber? Ma's had a rough one today, but ain't nothin' to fret about, alright? Everything's cool."
