[ There's a timeline out there where Majima marries a young idol. After escaping his cage and rejoining the Tojo Clan, he tries his best to resume a normal life. Normal man. Normal wife. Mirei chooses her career over their family, he reacts badly, and realizes that he can never have the normal life that he always longed for.

Here in Jigoku-cho, Emily Dyer has put her heart and soul into helping him recover from the years of torture and abuse. She's steadfast and devoted and the strongest person that Majima knows. He's not the same fractured idiot he would have been without her. She's the one, and she deserves for them to be able to say it out loud, with authority. They're so far from normal -- possessed in the yokai realm -- but he can still do that much for her and for Izo. ]

Wouldn't fly in Tokyo without somebody's blessin'. An' gals ain't... treated th'same.

[ She'd be his property, in short. He's not saying he agrees with that stance, he's just saying that's how it is in the Tokyo underworld. ]

Make th'old man happier if he knows what's up.

[ And Majima does actually care about Toraguma's happiness. His mouth twitches to the side a little as he recalls their last talk. ]
