Genji smiled. Good thing she thought before talking, otherwise it might have gotten messy. He was glad that his behaviour was somewhat manipulating them to be more careful and aware; even if he had to act this way, he still didn't mind. It was fun to let loose once and a while and goof off especially with the seriousness of his duties.

He'd stretch, satisfied with the turnout of today. It was pleasant to finally have a day 'off', since he hadn't taken one once in his entire career. He'd always been serious to make up for the way he'd been before, when his wife was taken from him. In fact he'd barely shown any interest in his work on the outisde, but when the seven-year-old Rena Hikari was brought to him, he found something to do. Someone to help and save. And even though this child had never improved on how reckless she was he still cared for her nontheless. Even if he was an asshole to her, he still found that she was the closest thing he had to family.

Watching her grow up, feeling like an outcast... seeing her with her burns... he was the doctor who'd healed her that day. He'd spent two days and nights working on her without sleep, and with much trouble he saved her arm and eye. It was worth it, though, despite his fatigue after. Saving her brought him much happiness; she had needed him and he'd never failed to deliver. He refused to. This girl would live past twenty, unlike his wife. He'd make damn well sure of that. He hoped to high heaven that this made up for everything, made up for Sachiko's sudden death on a mission, made up for all of his shortcomings. Even if he hadn't been able to save her, if he could save this girl, this reckless, idiotic fool who kept throwing her body in the line of fire despite all of the warnings... that would be fine. That would be... all he wanted.

"I want something sweet." He said, glancing up at the beautifully pastel-colored sky. "Maybe something with shrimp." He'd hop down from the branch, and begin to walk. "Well? Are you going to come with me or not?" He turned his head back to them before continuing on.
