“Well it’s not like I was trying to carry on a conversation with them. I got a random message out of nowhere, asked who they were, and they answered back with a sob story and an offer. Then I refused. I didn’t do anything to start trouble. That’s really the long and short of it.” Senjen answered to Light. He honestly felt he had handled it about as well as he could have, even once the Human approached. It made sense that they had been monitoring the Utaysi’s communications; he thought he had noticed some attention from her during their short exchange, and he supposed it made sense she would follow through. 

Light was acting frightened, but Senjen didn’t yet think there was any reason to panic. He had given the right answer, so he doubted he needed to worry. He turned back towards the Human and lightly shrugged his shoulders. “Probably just looking for sympathy, I imagine. The reason you haven’t met many Utaysi is because there’s not too many of us out here. I guess he expected...solidarity, or something, but his attitude was suspicious. Didn’t trust it. And I really wasn’t looking to interfere with your business.”
