Doing something for the sake of other people already makes it better than doing something out of your own pathetic, human greed.
[ he might have sounded a bit bitter, but tsurumaru knows that hijikata is stubborn, so he gives up on trying to get him to accept it, even if it does kind of bother him a whole lot... because hijikata honestly isn't that cruel at all in his eyes, and he doesn't understand why he doesn't understand.
it must be an era standards thing, he thinks. the bakumatsu period apparently has weak standards for being awful people... torturing people is nothing! ]
I've been told that before. [ about being weird, he means, and he laughs softly. listen, his ultimate wish is to die... let him have his wish.
but while hijikata's being honest, tsurumaru's going to push his luck even further, leaning forward with a smirk. ] And do you appreciate me, too?
