[ The idea of playing nice as preparation to catch them off guard appeals to Junpei. Satisfies the part of him that's hurt, and the part that feels unsure how good he'd be at a physical rebellion. Lying, he feels like he can manage. Relishing the idea of lulling those that turned their backs on him and those he cares about into a false sense of security. Pretending to be the good little subject, successfully cowed by the will of the villagers and their ruler. Those thoughts can keep his anger beneath the surface, the promise of eventual revenge. Of independence from their fickle whims. ]
