A deal... Heh. Though faint, the corners Akechi's mouth perk up into a familiar smirk. He wasn't sure what to expect. What was the last thing Ren remembered before his arrival? Sanada and Shirogane set a precedent for inconsistent timelines. He shouldn't assume they're on the same page...

But the ease at which he offers a deal is promising. A Ren freshly plucked out of the interrogation room wouldn't be so comfortable. A Ren before the betrayal wouldn't understand the significance of deals between them.

He visibly relaxes, comfort finally setting in. His wings fold against his back, and he brings a hand beneath his chin. "Well, you honored the terms of our previous deals." Plural. That's important. Were it merely singular, that would imply he only recalled the engine room and his 'death...'

That's another can of worms entirely. His survival... Well, one thing at a time. The casual familiarity is far more comfortable for Akechi than teary sentimentality.

Still, he'll pass the proverbial ball back to Ren. "What terms do you have in mind?"

Fine print is important, after all. He can trust Ren, certainly, but it should help determine where they stand in the present.
