It's normally very easy for him to get away with being evasive, as people rarely bother to ask anything about him beyond brief surface-level questions, if even that. So he's hardly put any thought into whether he might actually be willing to talk if pressed, and if it might actually be a good thing; deflecting and repressing are automatic for him now.

But he certainly isn't thinking about that as Blake elaborates further, and he only barely manages to refrain from laughing at the thought of him having any of those conversations with random hookups. He's not sure which would actually be more awkward.

"Yeah. Bein' here's kind of like a complete reset." Which, in theory, could be a good thing in many ways, but in actuality has only felt bad. There's very little he likes about this world, and very few good experiences so far, with the only real positives being the people he's met. Otherwise, ending up in a new world where pretty much everything he's good at or experienced with is useless has not been his idea of a good time.

But he doesn't say that, even if it's probably clearly implied, instead remarking, "Maybe that's somethin' you should invent. Magical equivalent of a dating app. You'd probably get real rich real fast."
