Rukia blinked, a bit taken aback by his sudden shift in attitude. Her first instinct was to snap back at him, but she had just finished speaking with Kurogane about Fai, who was very touchy about his past. Maybe this was a similar situation? Maybe something very painful had happened to Kadaj, and he was still bothered by it.
"It's up to you," she said after a moment. "I would like to hear your story, but I don't want to pry, either." Well, she did want to pry, but that might just make Kadaj angry, and then her curiosity would never be satisfied.
She considered his next question for a moment before answering. "No, I'm genuinely interested. After all, you might have found much better ways of passing the time than I've discovered." Which was the truth. Plus, finding out might give Rukia some insight into the young man before her. He couldn't have been more than 16 or 17, she thought, but he acted even younger.
"Oh, I don't know if that's everyone's goal," she commented. "Me, for example, I'm not leaving until I've gotten revenge." Perhaps that would pique his interest.
