Even listened, scowling initially, and then frowning deeper as Nel's explanation lined up with the story Szayel had given him.
In fairness, he had not lied, but his omission of that one, all-important factor in the attack, or battle, whichever it was, had made it seem much more serious a crime than it had ended up being.
He didn't know much about Orochimaru. Marluxia had given him information as to what he chose to study, and Szayel had given a few details of the fight, but it was only Nel that had provided a reason. Such a crime made Even's skin crawl. Perhaps it was the general revulsion of such a thing, though more likely it was due to the fact that he had once practically raised a child. The notion angered him.
"So he deserved it," he said, quietly. "And so long as I don't provoke anybody, there should be nothing to worry about?"
He wasn't entirely sure about that.
"Here's hoping that Saix's quarrels don't become mine in lieu of his presence," he said, referring to Grimmjow's well known quarrel with him.
