[Sakon kind of just looks back over his shoulder and grins at Mitsunari, shrugging sheepishly. But well, boss does have final word on things so he shuts up pretty quickly.

Ieyasu is left observing quietly and so he does have a beat of silence before he responds to Mitsunari-

Smiling and cheerful as always.]

Perhaps, but I had time. Motochika cancelled our plans - something or another about needing to do calibrations on some new invention or another. Nothing he needed me for and nothing I wanted to sit through, I suppose.

[And he turns to Sakon, giving him his attention now.]

But I'm very glad to hear that. Again, it's nice to meet you. I hope that we will get along well.

Same, same. I'll leave you be then? Boss has some work to do but I guess you're a welcome visitor if you haven't been told to shoo yet, otherwise I'd have to show you out myself! [He's kind of teasing. But not really. It's completely true. But he turns to Mitsunari anyway, deciding it's better to be safe rather than negligent-] Unless you need me for anything else...?
