( it is minute, but there is a slight tensing of legosi's neck and shoulders as shirou answers, a momentary stall in the cadence of his tail swishing from one side to the other. )

...I can see how that would feel strange!

( he tries to shake it off; there's no reason to be wary of someone, especially when it sounds like all he does is take care of others back home. but to think of social workers reminds legosi of... some of the more difficult parts about his life back home. being a predatory offender and all, regardless of the circumstances around it — well, it hadn't been intended to make life for him easy, and that was one of the reasons he had been pursuing a dangerous murderer. all because he had been promised his record would be expunged.

regardless... )

Nice to meet you, Shirou-san. I'm Legosi. ( he's thoughtful for a moment, muzzle tilting skyward as if he would find the answer among the stars and magically-imbued moons. he doesn't. ) Hm... I haven't, sorry. But that doesn't mean very much — I haven't really been very many places, back home. Is that where you're from?

( he's thinking he should have paid better attention in his geography and history classes... )
