Devero reaches for his cup, wrapping his hands around it like he needs a physical anchor for his temper. He badly wants to interject his conclusions about why Koumyou cares so little about the deaths he's caused, but he doesn't. That's not what this meeting is about-- it's about Koumyou and Buttercup figuring out if they want to commit to each other.

So he takes a deep breath and keeps his peace, letting his Sanzo speak.
