[ Gintoki's lips twitch into a sneer. She wants a promise. She wants a promise. There are too many promises he has almost broken in the past— when he promised to protect the old woman only to almost have her die— when he promised to protect his classmates and everything else when his teacher was taken from him... and now look at what they're doing.
You'd think making a simple promise like returning a sword to somebody in good condition wouldn't be a big deal, but.. he's aware of his near failures in the past.
If something were to happen to this stranger's weapon, he's not sure how he would forgive himself.. because promises are that important to him.
