[Is the response delayed because that's Chikusa's life story, or because he got briefly distracted by the intense shade of red which has covered Ken's face? Yes. Still, he blinks at that accusation.]
...I mean it's not wrong... [Let it not be said that he's objecting to the truth here.] But people around here are really...
[Nosy people? Bossy people? Chikusa trails off for a second, trying to figure out the exact words to describe the kind of weirdly energetic and people-people that the Far Shore never seems to be lacking of.]
[One would think that 'friendly' would be an easy word to think of, but that's not the kind of life Chikusa has lead. It might only take a second for him to think of the right description, but that's probably more than a second for Minako to barrel in... and probably demonstrate exactly how this friendship happened.]
[If it can be called a friendship, anyway. Chikusa hasn't bothered to fight it yet so far.]
