[GOD... At least Kaoru isn't actually concerned about that, since it's not like... anyone at all knows his reasons... Not even Chizuru since she's from a dIFFERENT ROUTE. So no comment will be made in regard to that, because Kaoru can at least tell that any further denials will just egg this nerd on more than he's already been egged on and nobody has time to deal with that bullshittery.
THAT SAID, Kaoru's expression becomes one of apology at that, and one hand raises to touch his chest in a demure and uncertain gesture.]
I apologize if I've offended you, sir. It isn't a matter of trust... It's simply that the story seems to bore most people who hear it, which is a difficult thing to swallow. [His gaze is cast to the side after that with some soft rendition of timidity. Good lord, he can already tell his acting is going to get a workout today...]
But you're entirely right. If a demon were to insist, I would explain. Unlike the humans who can't be trusted, I have yet to meet a demon that I fear retribution from. [gentle sounds of internal barfing...] Disinterest or dismissal is not a terrible thing at all, compared to what a human is capable of.
