He does briefly wonder at what Kitsuragi means about being "very familiar" with these kind of attacks, yet it seems so impossible to picture this man in a similar state that his mind simply supplies that perhaps the older man finds himself in a position of dealing with messed up people like this often.]
...Just for a bit, alright?
[Maybe if he doesn't look at Kitsuragi as he scuttles in through the held-open door he can feel less embarrassed about it? He's certainly giving it the old college try, anyway, staring doggedly at his worn old shoes alone as he makes his way in and follows the detective to his apartment.]
