[Takame knew very little of Ei's past life, he knew little about just how big of a change this was for her. To erase herself from existence. Even the concept of such a thing was... a frightening thought. But even not knowing to a full extent, Takame's tone was soft. He only spoke his first language at home with Yusuke, but he sounded less rigid with it.]
[Ei doesn't know Takame very well, but she knows him well enough to know that this is his kindness. So she'll offer him a smile in response. It's small, considering all that she's been through, but it's a smile all the same.]
Yes. Kamisato Ayato was a trusted retainer in my past life. He was kind enough to care for me here.
I had meant to have a more lengthy discussion with my cousin before I departed the Order. Unfortunately, Agent Hawthorne's appearance expedited manners.
... You had your reasons. I do not believe he would blame you for them, nor would I.
[Yusuke had no reason to bother with Guardian Hathorne and Takame had kept his distance for fear that he'd do something reckless. Ever since last August he'd felt his temper fray so much easier.]
Still... he would want to know you are safe, Ei-san.
[Ei gives Takame a warm smile. It makes her happy, to see someone who cares for her cousin so.]
Then please tell him you saw me today. Once all of this is sorted, I will go see him myself. In the meantime, I could not abide her targeting either of you because I happened to be nearby.
[He's quiet for a bit. Yusuke would like to hear it from Ei herself... but he understood not wanting to put him in danger. It was the entire reason he was staying out of the situation in the first place.
He loves Yusuke... with everything he is. He could not bear it if something happened to him.]
Mm. I understand... I will tell him I spoke with you and that you are safe.
[...]
... Are you being well taken care of by this Ayato? Have you been eating well? [He has to ask cause this goddamn family.]
[Ei smiles again. It's good to see someone taking such good care of her cousin.]
Yes, Ayato makes sure that I am fed. Unfortunately, the situation with Teresa necessitates that I do not order food to the estate, but I am making due.

I see. I am glad he is taking good care of you.
