[Motochika chuckles when Mitsunari finally shrugs his arm off and pats him on the back instead. He's had cats that react the same way to affection, so it's not like he takes offense at it. That is, though, something he probably shouldn't say out loud.]
Aye, well, no one's asking you to. Leave that to those of us that are more suited to it, I suppose.
[Motochika in particular is more than willing to put aside his own grief if it means he might lighten that of a friend. Ieyasu is much the same way, though he often has quite the wrongheaded way of going about it.
That's something else he shouldn't say out loud.]
Though it doesn't do anyone much good to say "this person has suffered more than that person and that one more than this and all more than you" when regardless of the depth of it all, they're still suffering. It's not a competition for who has it the worst.
