Takumi smiled as he looked up at the Half-Oni, making sure to give a bow to her directly since she introduced herself.  He made a mental note of where she wanted to go, and began to go over possible paths to each in his head, as Baji began to give a long explanation for what he thought of each location.  This guy was talking way to much as far as Takumi was concerned, thinking way too hard about the possibilities of what they know or don't know.  He was more used to people just quickly deciding where to go or already knowing beforehand.  He was about to simply go introduce himself to someone else, when Baji had a question for him mixed into an introduction. It was a fair enough question, though he wasn't  too keen on tacking paths specifically used by criminals.  

[color=00a99d]"W-"[/color] he was about to talk when suddenly a smaller odd looking boy spoke up, causing him to look down and tilt his head some.  The boy looked a bit young, but it wouldn't be the first time he had to escort a child to where he would later die so he didn't comment on it and just mentally sighed. [color=00a99d]"Hello Gin. Yes I planned to speak to the others as well but your friends happened to speak up to first, especially Jiang.  As for the routes it's up to all of you really, whatever you decide is what I'll do. I'm here to take you where you need to go after all. If you have an idea of your own, just speak up and make your voice heard."[/color] He smiled before turning back to Jiang.  

[color=00a99d]"Yes I do know of places such as those, paths used by various individuals and groups who I'd rather not run into.  If we are searching those areas for whoever you are after, you may want to make sure with the others first. Many people wouldn't take kindly to you snooping around if they happen to be trying to escape from somewhere at that same moment. They often have scouts and stuff watching out to make sure the wrong people don't end up finding out about such places.  Hell I'd be at risk at just taking you if I didn't check out the area ahead of time."[/color] He figured it was more likely to run into bandit gangs going down those paths, likely counting loot in a hideout nearby or watching out for bounty hunters and the like.
