(A Gun Devil. A Fox Devil and now that he understands... he looks at the sword across the room quietly. A Sword Devil? And in the interrogation... a Future Devil? Things he makes note of for now but for now, he shifts some and gently pushes Aki down, guiding him to rest his head on his lap,)
You've had a surprising night. You should rest.
(Brushing his hair still,)
And in the morning, if you still want to, we can cut your hair.
(He won't let Aki decide anything in his current state.)
Mhm. For now, you still have it.
(A "tomorrow," that is. When Aki looks up at him, he looks down back at him. He's as calm as ever, expression relaxed and he stops brushing Aki's hair for a moment to wipe at his eye,)
(It's as easy as that and he won't let Aki's mind wander too far into the dark because no sooner than he speaks does he start to sing. He has a good voice, calming and soft but full of quiet emotion,)
Don't cry, don't cry, go to sleep. Or the monsters will come and take you away.
(Good, he thinks and his voice only grows warmer. Of course, he loves surprising people so to hear that makes him happy.
He only continues to sing. The song is old, quite traditional, and if one really listens to the lyrics... aren't they a little sad? But most lullabies are like that, right?
But he'll keep singing, brushing Aki's hair, staying still as he keeps watch over him.

[ Or he'll get sent back, and if he gets sent back he'll die. It's that simple...
The hand in his hair is soothing, though, and he breathes out. ]
Mmm. So I should cut my hair. No Kon here to eat it.

(If he had to guess... maybe some sort of fox? But he isn't sure why Aki would have a fox unless fox assistants are common across worlds.)

[ Will he go back on it when he wakes up, when he's not drunk any more? Aki sighs softly, leaning back and tilting his head to look at Tsurumaru. ]
I guess... Tomorrow is fine.

Shall I leave you alone?

[ Makes sense to his drunk, alcohol riddled mind, at least. He sighs, shifting a little, sliding down against Tsurumaru a little. ]
No. You can stay.

It's nice. ]
I didn't know you could sing.

Are you surprised?
(He actually loves singing. The same way he loves to dance.)
Go to sleep, go to sleep.

[ It seems like the kind of thing that Tsurumaru would be good at... But he relaxes, leaning into him a little more.
He's not quite drifting off, but... He's getting there. ]

Whether it be children,
warriors,
or the dead,
he'll always keep watch.)
