Kotetsu opens his mouth...and then closes it again. Ten. That is...that is the same age as Kaede. Frisk is so much shorter than her, though. He never would have guessed. Then again, it probably doesn't help that they're almost certainly not eating right, here in this place. He'll need to see if he can do something about that, and deep down, he knows he's only thinking these thoughts to avoid the fact that he misses her so much all over again. Kaede is ten, and he still isn't there for her.
Not to mention that it's just a little bit alarming that Frisk obviously had to think before they answered.
No, try not to think about that. There's no point in dwelling on that. He'll be home, soon. He has to be.
Fortunately, Frisk provides another distraction. "Other ones," he says casually. It's not that it matters now, right? They can still talk in English just fine.
And maybe Japanese, too! He laughs happily at their success. "That's right. But seriously, you don't have to worry about that around me." He waves a hand dismissively, though he's still smiling. "I'm out of the habit of using honorifics anyway, when I'm not visiting family." But he makes it work to get the same points across in English, when he has to. No wonder Bunny hates being called lil' Bunny when he says it in the same tone he might say Bunny-chan.
"Everyone's always got a reason for being mad. Doesn't give them the right to eat people."
