[ He really doesn't know what to say to that, but he doesn't dispute it either. In the interim, Nagako gives Idi one last nuzzle, then starts to make her way back across the bars to Akira as he pockets the knife which had been laying on his lap. ]
[ Akira stands and shakes out his arms and legs. ]
I've always been better at talking to people who aren't on the up and up. [ This isn't a put down by any means, and his tone should convey that with how light it is.
After a moment, Nagako hisses in his ear. ]
To later, then. [ The bars make this even more awkward than it has to be, but Akira sticks out his hand. Shake? ]
[ but he reaches out through the bars and grabs akira's hand and gives him a smile. there's still a tinge of sadness in it, but he's still happy at having this time with akira. ]
[ What is a smile! Akira's expression does soften a bit, which is probably the most anyone could ask of him. He's also not really great at eye contact of this variety so there is some looking away, or more precisely down at their hands.
A second later he gives Bertolt's hand a squeeze before he pulls back. And then he's leaving because this is way too much emotion that isn't anger for him, goodbye. ]
