Seiji doesn't miss the glance Jigano throws back at him. He hesitates to respond immediately, his thoughts overtaken by the cold and by his current level of discomfort. Does he want to explore this place? See whatever creatures lurk in the shadows? He suspects he will, if only in hopes of finding a way back home, so he manages a faint smile in Jigano's direction, hoping his momentary hesitation is not too impolite. "If there is room for me, too," Seiji says. "I would like to see more of this place."
He almost envies Nairi the energy in her voice, her manner. She keeps talking as they walk along, and Seiji is content to listen, for the most part. Her questions are good ones, questions he would also like the answers to, though he feels too muddled to think of them himself. The cold begins to come through his clothes again, and he wonders just how far away this settlement could be. Rousing only to answer Jigano's question, he merely shakes his head. "You're very kind already."
