[That's true. For as much as Yasusada hated Akechi on a personal level, some part of it was always about the game itself. Its unfair rules, the spectacle it made of death, . It's much the same, here. That's just one of many reasons that Yasusada has believed, since the first death in the castle, that anything delivered at the hands of a true warrior would be a kinder, more respectful death.
He'd been so, so relieved to have his final wish granted, to get the chance to die in Okita's hands, serving him until the end. He can't have that much of a kindness here, but only because Okita's still sleeping, waiting for them to do what they must.
Next week, huh...
Yasusada smiles, reaching up to scratch the horse's ears briefly, before he steps away.]
Right. I'll make sure to tell you if anyone's asking questions like that, then.
[He probably won't blatantly lie, because he knows how bad he is at that. But he has no qualms with telling people he doesn't want to say anything. Which is suspicious in and of itself, but--well. The longer this stupid game goes on, the more everything starts to seem suspicious.]
