[That is certainly an answer... Matoba watches as Hizen takes note of the staring eyes that follow at his back, none looking away to take note of Hizen looking back, and knowing already what they meant for the human. Can he feel its presence in the darkness somewhere, following after him in greedy hunger? He had evaded its attack with some trouble not long after this had all begun, and yet its will persisted. The influence of the cursed energy overtaking the city was having some interesting results.]
[Matoba looks back at him, seeming as collected as ever on the outside. But if he could feel the human's aura, it wasn't quite as crisp as it normally was. Not corruption- exhaustion.]
Hoh? [His brow lifts in amusement, and perhaps he was a little pleased with that reply- but he'll take it apparently, because he continues on his way, expecting Hizen to follow after him.] Should I feel lucky? [If he was hip, maybe he'd be #blessed, but alas, 2005,] Or am I being escorted?
[Either way, it satisfied him to hear that offer. Hasn't he been working towards this?] ...But you know, Hizen-kun, I promise I can handle myself.
