That is about as true as anything he ever could have thought – though he would be loath to admit it to anyone but his twin, all things considered. For one that likes to keep things to himself as well as he can, it's no real surprise that he's not as good at it as he would have liked; but then, Rin has nearly always been able to see through him, no matter what he's trying to get away with, and they simply go back and forth calling one another's bluff until they both fold and start all over from scratch.
New nymph guy … oh, right. He'd only been vaguely paying attention when that explanation had come about, and he has to admit, hearing that has him briefly thankful that he's been holed up in their room for the past few days. This doesn't really sound like something he wants to be a part of. "I'd say that sounds weird, but for here, it sounds pretty normal." He snorts a bit of a laugh, almost rolling his eyes but managing to catch himself.
The fact that Rin starts purring when the claws come out is … probably a lot more endearing than it has any right to be, but yes, of course he's grateful for it. He's doing the best he can to make up for the crap few days that his younger brother had had to put up with, and while he would expect little else, it's still comforting to know that he would stoop to such levels just to ease the tension.
Good grief, but he needs a camera to capture this nonsense, though. "I'm not the one purring," he points out as one claw stretches to scratch under his chin. Got you there, brother.
