[He mulls over this new information, a slight furrow of his brow the only indication that he had any reaction to their situation at all.There was a reason why Tsukiyama was trusted for his information. He knew how to gather it and how to deliver the segments that were most important.

Still, his gaze is focused on the lake, its dark depths as much a mystery as the one presented to him. If he shared the same memories as Tsukiyama, it would put them on equal ground. If Tsukiyama knew more than him - it wasn't a thought that sat comfortably with him. Kaneki was already at a disadvantage - though it hardly bothered him. If need be, there were ways to get what he wanted that didn't involve a simple exchange of words.

For all of Tsukiyama's exaggerated movements, Kaneki reflects the exact opposite. He slowly turns away from the lake, taking firm and steady steps towards the other ghoul. The distance between them is little more than a stride or two.]

...I don't imagine you and Banjou-san have remained in each others company. There are still pieces missing from this puzzle, Tsukiyama-san.

[He is not in the mood to fish for answers nor is he willing to ask questions at the moment. Rather, it is something he must do. Gathering information, remaining one step ahead of others, juggling his knowledge as he sees fit... this was his life now, a web of lies and misconstrued details.]

No, we have, actually.

[His gaze had darted a little at Kaneki's approach, the effect not quite submissive but it's close, his eyes sliding half-lidded and angled off to look somewhere between Kaneki's left shoulder and the ground; he does return his attention to his face when he's addressed, however, and outwardly he's maintaining the sense of calm that he's been presenting, though it's...difficult with him so close.]

Banjou-san and I have remained in steady contact, if not physically in each others' presence. We've both been aware that a day may come that you would be brought here, as we were...we imagined it wouldn't be looked highly upon if our alliance were to dissolve so easily.

It's been trying, of course, but we've managed well.

[...In other words: We've been trying to tolerate each other for your sake. No one has been punched in the face yet, and no one has died!

This is a triumph, HUGE SUCCESS, etc.

...look it's probably a little sad but they tried

As it is, there's still the implied question of What have you been doing all this time? to handle; he's not...entirely sure how to answer that one so easily.]

There's someone from Aogiri Tree here as well - I suppose I should be grateful that it's Naki as opposed to someone higher up the chain of command, but I've been handling him as well. I've been keeping him close for the sake of being able to keep an eye on him; I have him on a rather tight leash by now.

He's a simpering lapdog, nothing more; he knows nothing about you or the rest of us, and I'm more than willing to cut him off should the need arise, but I imagined it would be prudent to have some way to monitor whether anyone else that will present a problem has come here. So far, no one else has.
