(Ryouma gives one of his typical speeches. To be honest, much of Hizen's impressions are all second-hand. He knows the version of Ryouma that influenced Izo's story and the story of Ryouma that allowed Mutsunokami to manifest the way that he is.

And like this, he can see... this is Sakamoto Ryouma.

Motivational, optimistic, light-hearted, and minimizing how much trouble things really are. A job's a job! Everything is fun. It's all about money. He has a plan! And if he doesn't? He'll figure it out. He'll figure everything out. He makes it sound so easy and simple that even a fool could follow it.

If Hizen were more naive, he'd probably be charmed. He isn't naive though and when he looks at Ryouma, eyes dark and hollow, it's like he's trying to cut through all of the distractions and leads,

People like you are easy to hate.

(People that kick up a fuss, stick their noses in place they aren't supposed to. People who aren't afraid to speak their minds and have personalities that can draw people to them, growing in number and strength.)

'S why people like me have jobs.

(Because when you hate someone enough, you'll pay to have them killed.

And he reiterates again,

Don't be stupid.

(Don't cause trouble. Not when he's too weak to get out of it. Not when the people who would drag him out are also weak.)
