[There's just a look that speaks to some vague measure of agreement at that, because yeah it sure is unfortunate. LIFE IS UNFORTUNATE. Life is doubly unfortunate when all of your true family is dead along with anyone else who even remotely bore the title. Chizuru might as well be dead for all the good she's doing right now, too. How dare she get spirited off into the void...
That said, Kaoru feels a sick sense of... something that isn't concern, but-- if anyone is going to make his sister miserable, it should be him, honestly. A Mature Individual. Most people's concerns would probably be alleviated at least partially upon hearing that their vanished siblings are safe and sound, but not Kaoru Nagumo, who's only buttblasted as usual that his precious little sister is getting special treatment.
But that's neither here or there, and not much of that conflict shows on Kaoru's face. There's another little smile, more subdued than before. Kaoru's head dips forward into a grateful-looking bow.]
I hope for the same, and thank you for your kind words. I suppose there isn't any way to know with certainty as things are right now, but... it's still reassuring, to know that others outside of myself are wishing her well. [SO REASSURING.]
And thank you for wishing me home, as well. I wouldn't mind returning, but I've very much enjoyed the company of everyone that I've had the pleasure of meeting here in the meantime.
