About... him? ... Great. Of all the things, Sora chose the one that made it like an awkward first day of class. He did have a point, though. All this happening, and they were still close to strangers. There were much better ways of coming to understand each other if you asked him, but they couldn't do much about that here.

"No, I guess not," he agreed. "That goes for me, too."

Where to even start, though... There had been a time in his life where he'd cut people down even for trying to be friendly. He'd changed quite a bit since then, but this still wasn't his strong suit. He guessed he'd just have to say whatever came to mind.

"I'm from Inazuma Town," he began, frowning in thought. "A first-year at Raimon Jr. High. I'm the soccer club's ace. ... We'd just won nationals before I came here." His expression began to shift as he said that, realizing that, even though it had been so recently, he'd almost forgotten about it in face of everything going on. It was refreshing, remembering that feeling of accomplishment for the first time, but also strange, almost even wrong. Along with that sense of pride at their accomplishments, came the realization that it was supposed to be shared. ... Funny how he didn't even notice that had been missing until now.

Then he realized he'd suddenly gone silent without meaning to, and shrugged it off. "... I can't think of much else. You'll have to ask about anything more. ... And you? Where are you from?"

It'd probably be more interesting than his awkward grasping, anyway.
