"Assaulted you... now that doesn't seem..." Before his train of thought could continue he had heard his name from another location, beaming from a familiar voice; the Steward. As the leader of the village began to analyze the behavior of Roku just from meeting him there was only one thought going through the young'ns mind; did I beat up this girl's brother? That was when he remembered her first little comment about thanking the 'Uchiha'. Now not all to clear on that clan but I know they are not natives and something worrisome. So if I crossed paths with individuals like that, I feel like I would have remembered such a fight.
"Oh no, no offense taken." His words were directed to the Kage as a smirk appeared on his face. It was the highest authority describing how he talked to Roku, what else could he say? I mean there was always his typical, go ape shit, approach but he figured that would only lead to a terrible beating that he may not walk out of. In fact the Kage was pretty spot on, this sort of thing wasn't his kind of party and if he had been 'commanded' to do anything it would have been met with agitation. So, kudos to the boss man for understanding his people.
His gaze then shifted back to the female that seemed to not be amused by his antics. "I don't remember fighting you and your brother, so maybe it was a simple mistake? Why fret over something like that. We have lives that could be snuffed out at any moment; we are part of a machine designed to box us in and control us; that is our life." He would chug the remainder of his cup. "We are all nice little caged animals, and I am the one stray that managed to get out. You think someone like me..." his finger would point to his shabby tie, "is overly concern by impressions? Sorry for rubbing you the wrong way in our prior meeting, and heck even for this meeting, but life is too short to waste it being upset over every little thing that comes your way. Lighten up princess; do something wild. Live dangerously."
And that was Roku's soap box moment apparently.
