Shouji knows that he has a lot to prove, back in his home. Whether this version with his new experiences gets folded into the version of him that still exists during the rise of the Paranormal Liberation Front, or they remain unique and separate, he knows that that isn't going to change.

It isn't something that he wishes to has through here, not when it already seems to distress Dedue to talk about on the micro scale.

Instead, he looks down at a hand, fingers flexing as he thinks, before offering that hand in a shake. That would be more in line with those less proper customs and dealing with people that came from places that he had never been.

"Thank you again for your help. It's nice not to stumble through this blind."
