[ not that tsuru's aware of it in any way, but lili not mentioning her noble status in her explanation is a good thing. it's because of wealthy nobles that tsurumaru distrusts humans in the first place; nobles with lots of money, nobles that demand obedience, nobles that act entitled and are ridiculously pompous and feel the need to have their way with everyone and everything.
and had he tried to protest — apparently, rich people really, really don't like it it when their samurai-sword-turned-court-decoration talks back to them.
but he understands the point that she makes, although he's grateful that she comes to a compromise nonetheless — and ah, so he didn't sound completely crazy to her, when he'd told her that he was a sword. there's a mental note to mention something to kashuu and mutsu later, but for now — ]
Why Kashuu and Mutsu in particular, though? Do you liiiiike them?
[ leaaaaning forward!! he also sounds like the most annoying five-year-old in the world, though. do you like them, lili? or do you..... like-like them?
but that aside, he finds himself amused by the simplicity of the nature of her request, and it's with a relieved tone that he answers. ]
Asking me to do something that I already do on a daily basis... That's certainly fine with me. Is there anything else, or will that be all?
[Annoying as his tone may be.... his efforts are wasted on Lili. The leaning forward just manages to get her to lean back because she's still not used to strangers in her personals pace, blinking owlishly at the question. Why did he put emphasis on the word 'like'????
Weird.
It completely flies over her head.]
.... No, I don't. [DOESN'T EVEN LIKE THEM IN A PLATONIC SENSE] They're simply the loudest!
[DUH. A slight huff though, as she slowly is able to regain herself.]
I don't have any reason to ask anything more of you though.
