[Rei doesn't move or react beyond sipping her drink quite calmly, draining the glass, and setting it down.

Nonon-chan. I'm not offering to take care of you. I'm trying to follow her suggestion and get to know you better. You mean something to her. Which means that, as her friend? I should try and learn more about you. To be friendly with you. Because that's part of being a friend to someone with a significant other. You try and get to know both people and become friends. That way everyone understands everyone else better, and benefits from an expanded circle of friends.
[Frank, matter of fact.]
I know I might seem curt, but I do like talking to you. Ryuko suggested classical music might be common ground is all.
