[Tenka can laugh through literally anything - so it's rather good that Souza doesn't take it as face value. However Tenka is not privy to any of Souza's thoughts so the sudden quick half-hug manages to surprise him entirely and he just shakes his head as his own arm around Souza gives the other man a reassuring squeeze. Come now, don't be worried - if that's what's happening.
. . . . . but the question manages to get him to snort faintly.]
Well, I take back what I said earlier. [ . . . . ] If you're going to repeat then, then do me a favor an donly do so to Kousetsu-kun, alright, Souza-kun? [Tenka sighs faintly-] it's not something that should be on the minds of children who are already doing their best to find happiness.
[Soramaru included. Tenka truly is a very protective older brother.]
... Shirasu and Sousei probably would've already drawn blood on each other by now if I didn't make them promise not to hurt each other. Then Shirasu's brother - have you met him yet? He's really.... efficient - on the other hand, probably wants Sousei and I dead regardless. Obviously I'm going to try to get him to change his mind but....
[He shrugs idly.]
People wanting my head or Sousei's is something that comes as a given back home so I'm not as worried.... but if you could make sure that Sousei doesn't get in over his head or something.... [ . . . ] I'd appreciate it.
[A clarification as he... tries to figure out how to explain that everyone else will only be in danger if they somehow get dreams of grandeur here to create a land where their clan can prosper or if the Orochi somehow manages to come back.]
