*[...Why.]*

*Was the first thought that came to his mind as he heard a voice that was close, unmistakably reaching out to him and hime alone. All he had wanted as a reward for his "Bravery" Was a fruity dessert and to be treated as apart of the background. Instead, this man had to muck it up! Asking a general question? How insensitive! Though subtly Kanm had froze in response, but had recovered quickly, not wanting to leave any manner of an impression on the man speaking to him now.*

**"...No, this is my first time eating here."**

*That was not only the honest answer, but also the best Kanm could think of. He had banked on the man finding the answer unsatisfactory to his needs and simply moving on to a different patron. By using his inexperience with the establishment, Kanm could hopefully avoid the peril known as "Interaction".*

"Oh okay cool, same here actually." *He shoots the guy a smile, as though that were the preferred answer over a yes. Seems Kanm has fallen right into the trap! Now to figure out how to keep him there so he can try to meet someone new...* "The name's Jalen, yours?" *The musician would usually offer his hand here but... Yeah a fist bump would be more clean here. So he'd hold that out, not in the stranger's face of course, but enough that the invitation is there should they accept. And frankly, given the way they responded he can already imagine it would either be ignored or reluctantly done but hey, it wouldn't be the first time.*

*[Why?!]*

*Who could have foreseen this... An extrovert! Kanm's careful but quick thinking had completely backfired! Leaving him exposed to further dialogue with this stranger! It would be one thing if Kanm knew who this man was, but the fact was this was their first meeting! Extroverts were his natural enemy, his natural counter, the Light to his Darkness! It frustrated him beyond belief, it made him want to make a make a mad dash out of here... But that would only get the "Dine-and-Dasher" Label attached to him on this world, and a negative impression was the last thing he wanted, even less so than a positive impression. This man was cunning, a cruel social tactician that entrapped Kanm in a conversation they could mutually benefit from and contribute to.*

*[Damn you!]*

*He cursed in his mind... Before looking up and taking the man's hand, shaking it.*

**"Kanm."**

*The worst thing he could do was to coldly reject the handshake, it would only apply the "Unsocial" Label to him. Such a label was one he wished to avoid, as it could lead to people like Jalen to further poke and proud at Kanm until his exterior broke down. As such, the best course of action was to remain stoic, but not standoffishly so.*
