[The holding of his hand just gets Tenka to smile again, laughing a bit. Hey, he's a touchy person himself, this isn't much of a big deal to him. Though it is considerably gentler than he's used to - even with Shirasu there was a lot of bumping and roughhousing... but hey, this isn't bad either.]

I want to be a wonderful big brother - that's what's most important to me.

[So... the compliment is deeply appreciated. If he can even try to be as good to them as they've been to him, then he thinks he's happy. Though honestly.... Tenka snorts faintly.]

It is scary. Soramaru wants to get stronger so that he can surpass me so he's constantly running into dangerous situations. Chuutarou's at least happy to be a kid for a while longer.... but they're both gonna be much stronger than I am. I don't doubt that at all.

[He says while he can still knock Soramaru flat on his ass. Whatever.]
