[It's always more difficult for him to tell when someone's a little more flushed or affected by something from this casino, but he manages to catch the subtle redness on her cheeks-- which honestly, only heightens her appearance. Still refined, but charming and okay, yeah, he's definitely affected by the meat. It's taking a lot of his self-control just to continue leaning back against his hands, shoving down the growing heat that's climbing up his spine, all out encouraging him to draw closer to her.
But he doesn't yet, because he still wants to have a perfectly nice conversation!! He's trained better than this.
Hearing her name does give some pause to that feeling though, the familiarity of her name making him confused for a moment until realization hits about why it's familiar. She's... Kotone's friend. Teammate.]
I've escaped them, much to their disappointment. [He confirms, almost off-handedly, because his mind is focused on something else.] You're Kotone's senpai, correct?
[Was her senpai. A twinge of sadness beats in his chest, knowing that she's gone-- even if she was sent back to her world, she's... at fate's end.]
