[Remember that confident smirk that's always on Tokiomi's face? Now it's twisted into a grimace. Much more of an annoyed grimace, and the look in his eyes is reflecting his inner irritation.]

You hold a similarity with Kariya in that you believe you have any right to speak so freely of the Tohsaka family. Had you been born, raised and bred as a Tohsaka, perhaps you might understand just how our children are raised. Have you spoken to Rin or Sakura themselves? I am not saying my death will benefit them in any way, but if it is inevitable, Rin has adopted the helm of the Tohsaka family and will be able to take care of her sister accordingly. I have no intentions of being harmed or dying here, and you would do well to realize that the "burden" of protecting either myself or my daughters is not something you have any right in shouldering.
