Tama scowled at how much his prisoner enjoyed Eiji. 'I'm as pretty as Eiji is. Easily!' Pouting like a child, Tama laid back down, facing away from them. Mori mentioned something about dinner and left. Tama popped up quickly and glared at Eiji. Tama knew Eiji had no interest in her, he was too cool for relationships. He had that mysterious brooding vibe that women ate up by the bucket-full. Narrowing his eyes, Tama followed after Mori to "help" with dinner with some parting words to the other two.
"Well, I'm off to decide how to er, make your life miserable. Rest assured it'll have piranhas!" Tama practically stuck his tongue out at them. Leaving Eiji and Kiri sitting together in the large room. Tama folded his arms and walked behind Mori.
"I called her first Mori. Eiji can't just swoop in and take her from me! The nerve of that moody bastard. . . " Tama sulked in a childlike tone as he stumbled behind Mori. The fearless leader tended to get this way when things didn't go as planned.

Eiji's eyes fixed on the girl, his face holding only a faint smile as he watched her fangirl. It was as though the whole world vanished. A rather cute trait admittedly. As Mori left, the grip on his shoulder indicated possessive emotions. This made Eiji smirk. Then as Tama left like a child having a tantrum, Eiji watched him go before looking back to Kiri.
"I apologize for the fuss they stirred up. You get used to it. Here follow me." Eiji stood up and took her hand lightly in his, gently leading her through the house. He took her outside giving her a tour until dark. Without a word he helped her up onto the roof and sat down beside her.
"I can't fully trust the lackeys. Tama and Mori are wholesome but. . . Better you stick with me for your own safety Kiri-sama." Eiji's hand still gripped hers as he laid back to look at the stars. "Isn't it just. . . Breathtaking." Eiji said, his purple eyes gleaming brighter in the moonlight. The stars were especially clear tonight. This was the most emotion he had shown since Kiri arrived and probably the most he will again. On nights like these, with the stars as clear as they are, these nights were when Eiji felt alive.
"I know who you are Kirishima-Hime. But, I beseech you to keep your identity a secret while you're under our roof. It will keep you safe. You are far from home here. This is wild land. If you wish, I will lead you home when they next go out for a raid. It'll be a minimum of three weeks away. Do you think you can survive?" He looked up at her and smiled slightly, indicating his attempt at humor.
