[Wow, this is one heck of an ugly mess. Rude's just going to take the easy way out of this conversation and just take Ishimaru's word that things will work out for the better. He's got good reasons, really! 1: Ishimaru isn't his responsibility. 2: Rude is not going to accidentally start a fallout between Ishimaru and his brother, that would just be a socially awkward nightmare between all three of them. 3. And perhaps...some part of him geniunely doesn't want to think about what he'd do if Reno and him were placed in a similar situation. Maybe Rude could talk to Tseng, but if there was only him and Reno then...then Rude wouldn't know what to do. He's not as optimistic as Ishimaru to believe that things would just work out like that but he can't think of any options that would lead to a good way out of the predicament.]
