>"Why don't you try saying something when you don't have your hands around the neck of someone who's way weaker than you? What'd he do, to have you making a scene in the middle of the daylight like this?"
>The shorter oni laughs. "See? Even she says so. Think you're so hot now?" She slugs him in the side, and the man grimaces, his gasp stifled by the hand around his neck.
>"Hey!" Orange cries. "I meant it the first time! Let him go, or I
will be forced to intervene."
>The oni cackles. "Just try it, I dare ya."
>The other oni lets out a frustrated sigh.
>What do we know about non-Orange law enforcement, and keeping oni and the like in line?
>There is a small city watch, predominantly human, who police most the city and deal with the usual problems: bylaw violations, petty theft, the occasional act of violence. For the most part, Braston is not an unusually rough place. Although the oni have a reputation for getting into fist fights and otherwise causing disturbances, in practice they do so almost exclusively among themselves. There's something of an informal leadership among them, and you think they keep a fairly tight rein on oni causing problems outside their own quarter. While the city still ultimately has jurisdiction over them, in practice the oni police themselves. The public generally accepts that the north end of town has more than its fair share of brawling, and are content that it stays there. An incident like this is quite unusual, and your first instinct is to think that the man pinned against the wall did something very unwise.
