pretty demanding, che?" saitou commented, taking a break from his soba and glancing up to meet soujirous eyes as the boy now sat across from him. A part of him wondered if he kept the sword, how much of a bother souji could prove to be. A reason to keep him coming back? why would he want that? He didn't, of course.
He laid the sword across the table. The inn was dark, not many customers as it was hours too late for official lunchtime meals. Soujirou took the sword with a smile, though he looked a little confused it'd been that easy.
"chou is an idiot. Though I can't say i have respect for many that were in that gang.." he snided, going back to his soba. "so, masterless, friendless..is it boredom and lonliness that brings you to kyoto or something more urgent?" he prodded, in the most rude of ways to ask why soujirous was here.
Soujirou leaned forward to sip his tea, his tailed hair falling over one of his shoulders. Saitou's eyes narrowed and fell back to his soba. So much like souji. He felt his hands squeeze into fists in his lap.
