Gojyo listens, horrified... but not one of those truly terrible things Chikusa rattles off sounds like it ended up with anyone else wounded or dead, so for all his fucking up, Hakkai's still doing better in his bad life decisions than Gojyo is.

Still. He's glad for the opportunity to chnge the subject, because he absolutely will not promise not to run off and do something stupid if Hakkai gets himself blighted half to death again, or passes out in the road again from too many magic charms... or gets hit with a truth serum and confesses his life's indiscretions to his amnesiac ex. In fact, if anything, Gojyo sees his future time with Hakkai as one long serious of running after the man.

There are worse things.

"That guy really meant a lot to you, huh." Don't worry, he's not looking for a recap of the other night's fuck your -sama argument. There's nothing but sympathy in his tone, and he's carefully watching the knife move through the meat instead of looking at Chikusa as he speaks. "To you and Ken both."
