The bowing thing is still a little too weird for him, but he knows better than to make a fuss over it now. Asking Jakob to be less butler-y might as well be asking him to grow an extra arm...

Add fakes a cough, using the time Jakob is spending bent over to finish rubbing his face dry. He's still not sure how he feels about all of this, if letting Jakob stay with him is the right choice or not, but knowing that Jakob at least wants to stay has lifted his mood considerably. Even if it ends up being the wrong choice... it feels good to know that he's wanted, even in this small way.

He turns towards the temple, expecting his shinki to follow.

"Let's go home. I could... perhaps use some tea."
