For another few long moments, Chikusa stares at him. This seems as though it's almost guaranteed not to really work, but he also has no idea on just... how to get out of this situation. At least, while he's still eating, which is an action he doesn't really wan to abandon just now. So, after a second, he moves one shoulder in a sort of shrug.

"Go for it." Maybe that will be easier to weather.
