[Kaoru knows how to appeal to just about everyone okay HE WOULDN'T HAVE LIVED THIS LONG OTHERWISE... So he isn't at all surprised to see that Shuu seems to be taking what he's said well, and he'll continue to help himself along by pointedly not making any negative-leaning remark about his question. Because yes... Yes, Shuu, you seem like someone with the attention span of a five year old.]
It's my own uncertainty that makes me hesitate, so please think nothing of it. [The easiest way to avoid confrontation is to take the blame onto yourself, and Kaoru does it elegantly! Even if there is totally some internal eye-rolling happening at his offer, like what the heck. The amount of care Kaoru has in learning Shuu's name is approximately 0% (though that will change pretty quickly as soon as he actually learns it). Even if he practiced Sengoku-era customs, he still wouldn't care... what a nice guy.]
I would very much appreciate learning your name, sir. As for me, it's simply what I'm used to. It's a little embarrassing, so I don't like to talk about it, but most people don't notice so it isn't a topic that ever emerges. [SEE... TOTALLY BORING.]
