[Despite her remark, the question doesn't seem to bother Shun, even though he doesn't answer immediately.]
You have a weird idea of "out of line". [Shun has definitely had people ask him things that are out of line, but usually it involves pushing into his traumas and not taking hints to back off. Compared to that, this doesn't even register.]
I wouldn't have as much of a reason to care about them if they weren't related to my duties. But I also wouldn't have had to learn how to work with them if they weren't. If they stopped being involved in my duties now, I'd probably still care a little, at least.
[Not as much as he has to now, but there are still people he cares about who appreciate them, so his ability to work with them wouldn't be going to waste even if all he could do was make those people happy.
He looks up when she finishes adjusting that little arrangement, and looks over it for a moment or two. Despite his lacking aesthetic knowledge, he can usually tell if something like this looks outright bad, which this one doesn't.]
It'll draw people's eye. [Which is the point, to him, and essentially the same as him saying it looks good, since that's usually his reasoning for saying it.]
