[ That response gets a small sigh from Allen but he complies, bending down to slip them onto his feet quickly. You don't have to hurry him!! You're the one who stopped them to fuss over his feet anyway!! Who's the one wasting time here being obstinate!!

His expression is both resigned and calm when he looks back up though, considering things. Also, it'll be his turn to fuss over you later. ]

It's been a long time since I was here... [ Really here. His memories when he was here with Kanda fuzz out quickly after they had arrived. ] I think I can get us some money, but we'll need to go to a different part of town. [ For... several reasons.

He turns towards the street again, but looks back at Shouto then. Considers something, his expression softening. ]

...Touya called the place you're from "modern." I don't know what that means exactly... but I understand it's something really far in the future from here. And that the way things are is pretty different.

[ He reaches for his hand again, hooking his fingers around his, and it isn't because his hand has started to get cold again. He squeezes gently, a gesture as solemn as gentle. ]

I don't know what that means exactly, but most people here aren't going to be as understanding of people who are different from them as those in Trench are. So we need to head somewhere where they won't mind as much.
