[Well, that's harmless and easy. She's young, but she figured out exactly what would resolve the issue immediately, so that's pretty good. He nods to her, and offers her the drink, and tries really hard to ignore her giggling.
And as soon as she takes it, it's the work of a moment for him to neatly sever the branch from his wrist with a flick of his sword.
He sheathes it again and turns to her, and a little longsufferingly--]
I am glad you enjoyed the show, if nothing else. Thank you for your assistance.
[Trucy Wright, huh... It's a thoroughly foreign name, but he simply nods in response, moving away from the trees now (he at least learns from his mistakes).]
My name is Abe no Sousei. [...]
While I can't speak to whether or not it would have been "mean" [he doesn't really...think in that sort of way.] it did save me from having to drop that glass.
...Uh, sure! If I stay away from them. I mean, they can clearly be cut, but I like to save my knife tricks for when I have no other choice...and "staying away from the trees" is a pretty clear choice, isn't it?
[ She's at least trying to stay out of branch range... ]
[...Yeah, it's not a perfect solution by any means, but if she has "knife tricks" and enough sense to stay far away from them, she'll probably be fine.]
Good. If you stay out of their range, you should be fine. Though there may be other things in this garden as well that are troublesome, so stay wary even then.

Also, that was pretty damn awesome. ]
No problem! It'd have been mean to just leave you stranded, wouldn't it...? I'm Trucy Wright, by the way!

[ She's just skipping after him... ]

[He's getting used to being called that here anyway. On the other hand, Sousei's not going to ask in return, because he's rude.]
Will you be alright here with these trees? [Just...checking... he knows better than to underestimate cute looking girls, but still.]

[ HOW DO THEY FIT IN THE FOUNTAIN, IF SO. ]

[Yeah.....
there has also clearly been some misunderstanding here; he's referring to the ponds in the park, not the fountains, but
