The boy stopped moving for a moment, not going completely still, but he was evaluating the situation. Not in the same way that a real swordmaster would have done, but in his own crooked way. "...I would ask you something, but I still don't have a name to call you by~" Completely unthreatening, as always, but it was clear that Soujirou would stall conversation unless he got an answer.

He was good at stalling conversation.
