['Everyone's' heard of it? Alright, well excuse him for not wanting to make any assumptions about how much an amnesiac illegal immigrant on a short leash might know about London's parks and recreation scene :/
Ryunosuke follows his nod down to the katana, his eyebrows flying up at the suggestion of using it.]
Karuma? Heavens, no, it's not... [It's not FOR that, at least not in his eyes, or his hands.] ...I keep it close to me for sentimental reasons. Not for self-defense. Truth be told, I'm... Not exactly comfortable with blades...
[His heart gives a painful little pang; rather ironic that his masked friend here wouldn't recognize his very own soul, that is assuming he and Kazuma are one in the same.]
[Of course, he has no idea the reason for Ryunosuke's hesitation.] Maybe you should learn. You were lucky I was there last time.
[The sword really shouldn't mean anything to him, but he finds his gaze lingering on it regardless before he shakes himself and peers back at Ryunosuke.]
[Maybe he should learn... The idea feels wrong to him somehow, though. He may be the sword's caretaker now, but the legacy of the entire Asogi clan is housed within that blade. It feels presumptuous of him to even think about trying to master it....

[He has much to think about, between now and then. Plus, a certain great detective to find and wring some answers out of...]
