Is that so? That is very kind of the two of you to shelter them...
[ The longer Horikawa talks to this person, the more precious he's seeming out to be. Abe no Sousei, is it... He'll do his best to remember that name from now on. ]
Well then, Sousei-san... Should you ever require assistance from another sword in the future, my own is yours to wield. [ He means that he'll fight along with Sousei from now on. Horikawa has joined the party! ] I promise you that I will repay your good favor ten-fold.
[... He pauses at that, brow furrowing slightly. Maybe it's arrogance, or maybe it's simply self-confidence in his own skill, but either way, his automatic response is--]
That's not necessary. You owe me nothing, and I do not need assistance. [wow, who let this rude guy in here.]
Sheltering those who need housing is simply common decency, and is more the work of my partner regardless.
[ That didn't come off as rude to Horikawa at all, since he does have comrades that are like this. He almost let out a harmless giggle, but perfectly controls himself. He merely forms a smile. ]
And it is simply common decency for a man to recognize a favor. As a living vessel of the former Shinsengumi, I still wish to uphold their legacy. One day, please allow me to honor this.
[A favor... he supposes, in a way, it is a favor--but it's a favor to Souza and Kousetsu, not to this sword, even if they are comrades. He doesn't quite get it, though that much doesn't show on his face.
And he's not quite willing to agree to that yet, either; for someone as fiercely independent and lone-wolf as Sousei can be, agreeing to even a favor is too much.]
..We shall see. [So instead, he gets a neutral response. Perhaps someday.] As it is, I believe you have greater things to concern yourself with.
