[Thank you, Saitou. That is definitely on the top ten list of "Things Souji avoids talking about if at all possible", right under that moment when Yamanami used him to commit suicide. Not that it won't become apparent soon enough, considering how far progressed it is for him.

Now he laughs and shrugs easily, not looking particularly bothered.]

It's alright. It's not the first time it's happened to me either. Kondou-san says that the first thing Hijikata-san ever said about me was that I'd grow up to be a pretty woman. [Because Kondou is a huge traitor who talks too much when he's drunk. Souji had laughed for approximately a week straight. It still makes him giggle.]

I'm not nearly as bothered by that kind of thing as some men seem to be. And they've been very kind to me so far.
