[Ren pauses very slightly before turning back to the stove to put the kettle down. That name isn't actually completely unfamiliar--someone had mentioned him on the board the other day. That also isn't at all the tone Ren would expect from Shun right now, even if they are talking about someone who's gone.
But it does help keep him from feeling too disappointed that this person he liked and his similar powers are gone. If Shun's sounding like that about someone he'd undoubtedly been suspicious of, there's something else going on. As Ren looks over at him, he feels even more sure of that. Just disappearing wouldn't rattle Shun this much.
Maybe if Shun didn't look like that, he'd say something about how he didn't think Johan was the kind of person to put Fubuki at risk anyway, or that it's a shame he didn't get to compare notes on their powers a little bit more. But Shun looking like that demands being more direct.]
