[He squeezes Kaoru's hand and leans his head against his twin's, just briefly. He'll catch up, Kaoru, and once he's on the same level of understanding, things will be easier.

Physically, maybe, yeah. [He shrugs as well as he can right now.] It doesn't really matter anyway; we can teach Rin-chan everything she needs to know when her time comes.

[Please don't ever actually come to him for any sort of talk. It would break him. He's literally only saying this to get a rise.

...Speaking of helping! He'd forgotten! His next words are much more genuine, and he'll be aiming to look Rin directly in the eyes if she's not staring elsewhere.]

Anyway, I wanted to thank you for the other day, Rin-chan.
