(He is, in fact, surprised! Not that it really shows much. It's very slight-- he tenses just the smallest bit, suddenly much more alert.
And he freezes, going completely still for a moment before reaching up to put his hands over them too? Now they're just both covering his eyes,)
Aah, Kitty-chan, what big paws you have!
(He lowers his hands but still doesn't turn around.)
You're different.
(Not like the ones they met earlier.)

[ their hands will stay covering tsuru's eyes but not in any way that's forceful. if tsuru wants to pull them off then he may at any time. ]
Kitty-chan has big paws in order to hold you close! But Kitty-chan won't do that unless Kitty-chan has been given permission first.
[ they'll laugh with a bit of a "nya" in it before sobering up for a hot second. ]
I've been told that a few times.

(He will stay right here. At least, for a while longer.)
Haha! Such a polite kitten.
(And he takes a step forward, pulling himself away from their hands and turning to face them. What's the height comparison here? Taller? Shorter? The same? Is Tsurumaru meeting them at "eye level" or does he need to look up/down.)
Shall we introduce ourselves?
(Who's first... who's move is it.)

[ they will obviously go first but will stand before them holding their hands up to their face like "paws". in terms of height, they're close to being the same with tsuru a smidge taller. ]
I'm Rameel, one of the Temporals and an ally of yours as well as your every watchful caretaker.

(The introduction is easy and direct enough. It feels strange introducing himself without his sword by his side. Is it really an introduction if he isn't really here!? Instead of touching his sword like he usually would, he wonders what he should do instead.
Place?? A hand to his heart? Gross. He'll just settle for bowing his head,)
Tsurumaru Kuninaga. It looks like we'll be working together. Please, take care of me~
(You can never go wrong with a good old fashioned ~yoroshiku~.
Crossing his arms across his center. It's less of a defensive posture and more of a relaxed, confident one,)
You don't plan on making me fight with a kitchen knife, do you?

Tsurumaru Kuninaga...
[ they'll give a bow with some flourish. certainly nothing wrong with a traditional yoroshiku at all! though they'll end up laughing at the mention of a kitchen knife. ]
Oh no, I would never think of doing that to you. Trust me, we're hard at work looking for your things. Or, well, those other three are working especially hard to find your things.
Soon you'll be reunited with it all, I'm sure.

(And then RNG has the absolute audacity of giving Tsurumaru the ocean option to get his things back. Thanks.)
I'll look forward to it.
(But yes, time to get to some business, ahem. He's going to reach into his handydandy bag and hold out his coin to Rameel,)
Celestial Watchers and Temporals, hm? Is there a reason you've divided us so secretly? (And he tilts his head to one side, watching Rameel-- or rather, watching their mask,) What else are we hiding?

[ rest in peace tsuru. ]
Oh, no reason at all. Rather, if there was a reason for it, then I was not made aware of any of it. The boss knows the finer details and I'm just here to follow their orders.
[ tsuru can watch rameel sway a back and forth on their heels. ]
I believe that answers your question about what else we're hiding, except that I don't know what I don't know in this case. If there were more information that I could give you then I would.

(He will never rest. He will never forgive this. If Akira, KDJ, and YJH end up dead, 'twas Tsurumaru Kuninaga!!!
But oh. Hm. He crosses his arms and taps at his chin, thinking,)
If it was just to make us easier to manage, it wouldn't need to be a secret. (And he's quiet for just a moment as he considers something and then moves on,) Could it be for fun?
(Why else are there secret teams besides boring reasons, bad reasons, or fun reasons!!)
... Do you work for the ministry?
(Tilting his head and just now like, tapping the side of his face, next to his eye. He's signalling about the mask.)
Uwah. Am I in trouble?
(DID THE GOVERNMENT GET TIRED OF HIS PRANKS???)

If you're in trouble then that means I'm in trouble, and if I'm in trouble then it means that we need to change our IDs and escape the country. However, I don't have my passport here with me and I don't want to make an entirely new one on my own.
[ they sound...entirely sincere about all of that? sincere in their distress and concern of their next moves. well, up until it all falls to pieces and they start laughing to themselves. ]
If it were for fun then I wish there was more fanfare to all of this, as it stands it's all a bit drab. I wish I had at least one party popper.

Ah, but I don't have anything and I was hoping to count on you!
(He has no ID? No passport? He just has his name. Can't believe Rameel is just going to let Tsuru get taken by the feds wow.)
Not answers, our things... do you have anything? Who is your boss? I want to talk.
(Turn on your location.)

Sorry, sorry! Please forgive me! I am but a humble Watcher.
[ they're both doomed and going to end up at the gallows rip the two of these clowns. rameel will put their hands together in front of their face and bow in "apology" as they speak. ]
I would love to talk to my boss too but they're currently leaving me on read! They left me this one instruction and now I'm just here waiting.

(Look at him. Look! At! Him!)
I wouldn't trust anyone who didn't like cats. (Yeah.) That said...
(Voice trailing and a thought kept to himself. It would take more than liking a cat to earn one's trust. Well, some things can't be helped. For now.)
Have you been waiting since the adults left?
