It grates oddly. It's become blatantly obvious that he and Sanzo knew each other somehow in life, but he doesn't know how, and he doesn't know what he might once have known about the other man. They can talk practicalities easily enough. Anything personal, though....
Well, that's at least half Hakkai's own fault.]
