[Souji has always been rather good at picking things up, not because he has an inherent understanding of human behavior - because he really doesn't - but because he's genuinely and deeply intereseted in people he cares about. And Kashuu has now been sorted into that category without any introspection on Souji's part, because when it comes to the right kind of people, he cares as instinctively as he breathes.
He nods thoughtfully as Kashuu speaks, his lips parting in a slow smile of understanding. Yes, he can very well imagine that there's a big difference between understanding a concept and actually being there.]
I think I know what you mean. I mean, not exactly - I can't imagine any human can, right? But I was pretty sheltered for a long time as a kid, and no one really had any time to take me out and do things. I remember watching movies, starting to learn how to read, and I knew the words without knowing what they meant. [There's a hint of nostalgia in his smile for a moment, before he perks up once more.]
Fireworks are amazing down by the water, though. I know you'll love them. Oh! What kind of food do you like? Eating must be a pretty weird thing to do for the first time...
WHAT what did I do did I get too real
