"What's there to be uncomfortable about? You know I'm pretty capable of handling my own and I'll be with Repede so it's technically by myself, Shorty."

He replied with a small laugh as he rested his hand on her head. He's gotten too familiar with her lately and things like this seemed rather natural. Rukia was someone he held close to his heart after all. Even if she was centuries older than him, she was still childish in her own right and short. He can't help but feel like he has to protect her sometimes even if the girl is capable of her own. He never once really doubted her abilities to adapt and be something amazing but a part of him still thought about the vision and about her past. She shared a similar past to him and having died before she had a chance to experience life was pretty depressing. Guess he'll add something with rabbits to his list for shopping this year as well.

He snaps out of his thoughts as she starts talking again, "You are right on that part but I'm pretty careful when I need to be," he adds reminding her as careless as he can be, he's good at being stealthy as well. Yuri really insists that he can do this but he does understand Rukia's concern on the matter.

"So that's what you're worried about," he speaks up after a moment of silence following her statements. Yes, he does remember seeing shockingly familiar faces that he rather not talk about. However, he can't get too sentimental about everything. He moves his hand from her head as he drops it to his side.

"Makes sense. It's hard to take down something that looks like a friend, family, or hell, even someone who you met once or twice but with that in mind, I still think it's fine for me to handle it."

Except he's not really arguing with her. He really doesn't want to. If she wants to do it together, he won't stop her.
