You should have been more specific. [He sets down the bag, seeing as this conversation will be longer than he thought.] Why would you think that I wouldn't come back? Because I can't trust anyone anymore? Or because I died here?

[His grip tightened on his sword in his right hand. Yes, he died on this ship, but staying away just because he was afraid isn't his style. Paranoid, yes. Afraid, no. His life was in danger everyday since he was sixteen. Since he vowed revenge on the Takatori family. Why be afraid now?]

I'm not that kind of coward. It wouldn't matter if I never returned, because the same could happen again with some stranger. So I chose the devil I know over the devil I don't.

Does that answer your question?
