Nero moved closer and sat next to the bed, leaning against the mattress. He contemplated the question. He had no real answer. That was why he had asked her. He had no friends... only aquaintances. He would outlive anyone he had befriended and Urahara, Tessai, and Yoruichi were more like buisness associates then friends... okay he might consider Yoruichi to be a friend but not the other two. He treated Ururu like a little sister while Jinta was a brat who needed to learn respect.

"I have no friends... except for maybe Yoruichi." He replies contemplatively "I have no idea why I consider you one. Maybe its just fate or destiny. I just know that I would have considered you my friend even if you didn't. Thats why I saved you from the Hollow. As for you teasing me... Yoruichi is a much worse tease then you are and after being around her for even a shot period I've grown used to it."
