That wasn't--- Enki had been braced for an order, but what came out instead... Eyes widening, he almost reflexively drew a foot back (the space was really too narrow for that, especially as he'd almost curled down behind here). Then slowly and deliberatedly, put that foot down.
"That's not--! Someone would get hurt anyway, and I don't care abou--" Enki's mouth snapped closed, both beacuse of the 'selfish' comment, and didn't that drag up something that was just ancient history, and because he didn't feel like hearing what Shōryū had to say about 'I don't care about me'.
Probably something about chunks of flesh again, and couldn't he come up with a better metaphor?
"There was nothing else?" Insufferable idiot. Didn't even need to use his stupid orders.
