[ Well, at least she has spunk.. If there's something that Shinpachi can find oddly endearing about girls, it's that. (Not that he doesn't find a lot of stuff about them endearing-- look, big brother instincts kick in quickly!) Although he's keeping an eye out for her, he's trusting Ruby can at least stand her own enough with that weapon that he doesn't have to expect to have to jump in any moment now. Instead he just follows her, making sure to stay out of her scythe's possible range - he's not going to make it harder for her, after all. ]
You're going to make me look bad at this rate!
[ Even though he's taking care of some that try to get in the way as he follows all the same. He's a Shinsengumi captain, after all - far from helpless as long as the opponent doesn't have some sort of weird supernatural advantage. ]
Wait up for me outside before you'll be long gone by the time I get there! [ Okay, at least that's a light joke - it's not like she's that far ahead of him, but Shinpachi got to at least give some credit where it's due. ]
