Klaus is standing on their own two feet now, and Nobunaga hates it in a million ways. He warned Yato this. That if it comes to sins, or things like intense emotions that hurt Nobunaga and would hurt Yato too... Almost all of them will be directly from Klaus. Anything that upsets Klaus that is just IN THE PRESENCE of Nobunaga, whether he's directly responsible, or it was impossible to avoid, are worse than any pain from immolation or the pain of any number of arrows.
"But probably less overall danger than if I was on my own." Because let's not forget Nobunaga likes to be on the front lines acting like he's immortal. Or getting eaten. "And I can't even let myself get hurt very much or it will hurt him too." A beat. "Not physically hurt, I mean extreme grief and anguish, and sins." Another beat. "Not like other religion sins. I can fuck you forever, American Gods be damned, but I mean anything that would upset me... so good thing he's not taken me on yet, because I said he had to meet with you first, huh?" Because Nobunaga is being lowkey tortured right now. Definitely not a masochist.

Ugh. But he wants Klaus to rely on him.
