[So polite! This isn't the first rejection that Satoru has received today, but it is the first one that was delivered with manners, which is exactly why Satoru decides against moving on to the next unlucky object of his unwanted friendship. Something about the way this kid is following the rules of conversational etiquette while being defensive makes Satoru want to pester him...or maybe he's just missing Nanami's stiffness.]
Don't be shy.
[For now, he'll put his hands in his pockets as he makes a show of considering this rejection, pressing his lips together in thought. Meanwhile, he's attempting to scope out that energy he briefly felt when coming into contact with him. Interesting! This is the first time he's encountered someone who has an ability that feels like it could have some parallels with cursed energy.]
How else do you plan on getting out of here?
[Here being the train car, but also the train itself. Satoru learned long ago that there's value in having strong allies, and as none of his students are here, that means he has to start all over again with recruiting potentials — in pursuit of the smaller, and hopefully easily obtained, goal of escaping this train. Or at least reaching the higher-up(s) in charge to teach them a lesson or two.]
