[Harder than normal for Gil, at least. Sure, he could charm his way through any social function that demanded his presence, but it didn't make the feat any less insufferable.
But despite the comment, he parks himself against a bookcase to engage Tokiomi further. He doesn't want to argue, but it's a strange feeling, having someone who looks his age in the house -- having anyone at all in the house. Sure, there are maids and gardeners and dignitaries and couriers in and out of the estate, but they all leave in due time.
