[Kazuma's still here largely because he's tired. He could wade right back into the chaos of outside, but sue him if he'd like to take a breather and collect his thoughts first.

Which is why he's lingering in the hallway because he would like to make sure Kamui's okay, but also if he goes out to the main reception area Mikotoba Is There and Kazuma doesn't feel like dealing with his worried questions at the moment. It seems less stressful to simply wait his turn out here than to try and actively avoid communication, so here he is.

It does mean he's able to overhear some of the louder parts of their conversation, which is a little awkward, but when Andy makes eye contact with him, where he's leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, he keeps his gaze steady.]

It's me.

[He raises his eyebrows and nods toward Kamui's door.]

You really are involved with Shuten, aren't you?

[ Funny how he keeps running into her with situations like this. Feels almost fated somehow, in a fucked up kind of way. She has half a mind to be annoyed by his question — but honestly? He's not wrong, is he. He's very not wrong. And it's not as if she exactly planned it that way, but that doesn't make him less not wrong.

Eh. After a moment, all she can do is shrug a little. ]

Guess I have a type. [ That... Absolutely doesn't explain it. Nishitani and Kamui are probably as opposite as two people could possibly be. But she doesn't seem especially concerned with that inconsistency. Instead, mildly: ] The hell are you doing here?

[Kazuma doesn't know Kamui very well, and he didn't really know Nishitani either, but it's clear to him they are very different people. A "type," huh? Kazuma raises his eyebrows significantly at her but doesn't further comment on that.]

I'm the one who brought him here. It seems only right I check on him.

[The avoidance is a bonus!]

[ Then there's Harry, and Izo, and Majima the once — ]

So you're the one that found him.

[ It's hard to decide based on her expression what that implies exactly. Is she grateful? Does she blame him somehow? That resting bitch face gives so very little away. But after a moment, she just exhales, lifting a hand to push wild hair back from her eyes wearily. If anything, she does seem subtly relieved. ]

I suppose I should thank you. [ That's not quite the same as actually thanking him, but it's close enough where Andy's concerned. ] This city is a shit hole, but at least the doctors here usually know what they're doing.
