[What a very boisterous and physical person-!! Kaoru's actually taken off guard by how quickly she bridges the gap and suddenly they're holding hands and good lord, these newcomers are A Handful.]
Oh— Thank you, miss...? [GLANCING DOWN at their hands somewhat uncertainly... But Kaoru isn't rude enough to pull away, at least, even though no attempt is made to return the grasp.]
I'm not too badly frightened, though, and I don't believe that I'm lost. You don't need to go out of your way for me. [Followed by a reassuring smile! Reassuring, but somewhat hesitant.]
