[Well, while he's not a villain to animals, it's not like Sougo is a softie for them. You should be able to remember that firsthand, Gintoki. And right now, he's still teasing Sadaharu after all, waving the manga page back and forth before Sadaharu can get it. But Sadaharu is....actually pretty cute. Being affectionate around animals isn't too bad, at least.]

I guess he can't bite your head like this, huh. [Sougo sounds disappointed.] I wonder what China's gonna think of you stealing her dog.

Anyways, nothing's wrong. Do you want your gorilla girl back?

[Huh. Just uttering the words "gorilla girl" reminds him that he misses Kondou-san.]
