Kotoha waves one arm at Tachikoma. Shush, she's got this.

"Oichi, it's not about deserving or undeserving. I'm kind to you because I want to be."

Her brother, huh...okay, time to bluff. Even more. Kotoha may not be particularly aware of who Oichi's brother is, but she was listening to everyone else talk about him. And then there's the fact that nobody was particularly surprised when his castle was filled with angry, murderous ghosts, which, frankly? Say a lot about the guy.

"You know what he's like. He'll be cross no matter what, won't he?"

Kotoha flashes Oichi a conspiratorial little grin.

"If you leave, though, you'll have your friends with you if he shows up, right? Wouldn't that be better than being alone here?"
