"I am not seeing them either," Machi told Simon, turning to look at him. A big gun? Machi imagined something like LeTouse's gun, then magnified it several times with a feeling of vague horror. The mental image was strange. Why did he think these people were here? Something was making him blush, but Machi couldn't see anything in what had been said that was blush-worthy. He was confused. "Is large house, though. Why is... where you looking?"

Machi's position had nothing to do with being protected by Zetsu--at least intentionally. He didn't want to be in front of the plant man while addressing a stranger, though, putting him at the fore of attention. He was still a little nervous around the ninja, despite the recent events, and wouldn't have dreamed of asking him for help... even though Zetsu was probably the best suited to such a thing.

He was trying to puzzle out the possible purpose of a giant metal head but he couldn't come up with anything practical--and hardly anything impractical, unless this new person was an actor. But Machi knew better than to assume strange people were performers now... he just couldn't figure out what else he could be.

Simon shook his head to snap himself out of his stupor and shake the image of Yoko's body out of there. This wasn't the time to be thinking about things like that. Yoko and Kamina might be lost!

"I wouldn't check the house" ,Simon explained "They're probably outside, Bro doesn't really like roofs."

Simon thought contemplatively for any other clues "Maybe you've seen a big red Gunman coming through recently? That'd be Kamina's Gurren..."

Zetsu shook his head. "If they don't like roofs, they would probably be in this room--it's the closest you can get. There's no way to get outside." Who knew? Maybe the pair were still lost in the house, if they were even there at all. He did frown in confusion at the term, though. Gurren? Gunman? "If by 'gunman', you mean a large metal head like the sort you have, then no, I definitely haven't seen one." That probably decided it, then; there couldn't be any Kamina here. He definitely would have noticed a giant red metal head walking around the house.
