I'm sure he'll be cross but I worry he doesn't realize just how much all he's already gone through here has effected him, not to mention his injury." He stifled a sigh before glancing to Heiji again. "I assume you'll want me to vote for your partner no matter what? I can't promise I will but I'll take that into account."
