[Atsushi mulls over those words for a bit. A consensual arrangement, one meant to keep Lightning in check, and Atsushi is already familiar with how sneaky Lightning can be even outside of Iris moon...
Yeah. He's probably tied up or something. And really, whatever arrangement they have is none of his business, right? Lightning has proven to be smart, he wouldn't actually be in a situation like that if he didn't want to be.
Seeing Lightning tied up might get to his 'must protect everyone' instincts too, which wouldn't be good in a situation like this. ]
...no, it's alright. I'll just talk to him after the moons are over.
[If he actually does get hurt during this, well, Atsushi can do something about it at that time. But he should give others the benefit of the doubt, right? This woman doesn't sound malicious, and Atsushi has no reason to doubt what she's saying.]
