"Y'know, that's why nobody talks to you I bet. I went out of my way to pass you a coffee and I have to pry just to get you to tell me something I already know."
The coffee wasn't much of a hassle, actually, given she appeared pretty much right in front of him. If he'd had to really go out of his way he wouldn't have even bothered. But she really did tell him mostly things he knew. Sure, he didn't care too much for the gang's affairs outside of coffee-making, but being in the gang even he'd eventually managed to gather that much.
What he didn't know was she gathered information through trading. He figured she'd be more sneaky and underhanded about it, like beating someone up and extracting info from them, or eavesdropping on conversations. Of course, there was the possibility she just researched using books and the Internet, but when he thought of "gang informant" that last option seemed less likely. To him, at least.
Though in the end, he didn't really care how she did it. It was surprisingly straight forward, though.
"C'mon, I may like coffee a bit but I ain't that oblivious. I'm a drinker, not a moron. 'Sides, even if I was that oblivious, I wouldn't regret a moment of it. Would you prefer to have knowledge of all this gang stuff, or enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee? ...Or some cold canned coffee that still tastes alright. Either way, I'd take the coffee. Wouldn't you?"
He reached into his bag to pull out another can before pausing, shaking his head, and withdrawing his hand. Wouldn't prove his point much if he downed another can. He knew he didn't exactly give off a great impression to people unfamiliar with him. Or even people who were familiar with him sometimes. No need to make that any worse.
"Well, anyway, I know about the Kimura stuff, but you're the information gal. You prolly know more than me, huh? Learn anything interesting? Or you just gonna sit there and poke fun at me?"
