What little presence he's had on the network has largely been his insistence that he doesn't feel inclined toward solving the mysteries of this place. Reaching out to someone is difficult when their hand isn't anywhere in sight, purposely hidden away.

At the same time, Shinjiro feels like he knows where this line of questioning is going. The protest is rather without teeth when it comes, too sapped of energy for it, but there's some genuine teenage petulance in there.]
