[ upon hearing the fine scraping of a blade being unsheathed, tsurumaru readies a hand on his own blade, but soon discovers that self-defense won't be necessary, as it's just sayo. he'd reach out to pat his head if he could, but in this darkness, he can't exactly... pinpoint where sayo's head is at all. ]

Ooh, Sayo, there's no need for that. It's just me! Please don't stab me in the dark, okay? Let's head towards the dojo together, and then you can stab me there all you want.

[ IT'S A JOKE please don't... or maybe he's not joking at all, who knows? ]

Is that the only bar you have? If that's the case, then I'd feel bad taking it from you.

[ listen, sometimes his elderliness kicks in... he certainly doesn't want to take the only article of food that sayo currently has on him. ]
