[He speaks firmly when he says that, though with a touch of anxiety laced underneath. Like he's worried that she might actually be right.]
I was going to ask, at first. But what I saw at the Foundation was...
[He shakes his head.]
It's too dangerous there, even for a Witch. Every moment I was there I was at risk. So I just grabbed them and ran. Even now it feels like the eyes of the Foundation are watching, like I awoke something that should not have been disturbed.
How interesting. Still - you weren't afraid to grab them, nor explain anything to them once they'd arrived.
...Of course, that was because you made yourself a piece to hide among them. As I said before, it was a clever play.
[She raises her arms above her head, grinning brightly.]
I can't wait to see your response to my next move~ I'm sure it'll be wonderful. Should we stage a public argument to make your pieces see me as even more of a villain?

Probably! But I'm beginning to like you, despite everything. You - Hm.
[She pauses for a second, looking...distant?]
....I just feel like teasing you, and I don't know why.
[And then it's over, and she shrugs.]
Maybe because you're so easy to rile up~

...Just...enough. Enough to let me know that no human is worth any kind of trust.
[Her face tightens, a little - and after a moment, she stands.]
Another witch, however...that is a different thing.
I'll leave you to your sleep, WATANUKI. Rest well. I'll see you again when I make my next move.

[The protest is merely cursory, though. Because now he's watching Nirrti with a sense of curiosity. Hmm, what just happened?]
