It was really the only other possible explanation besides a brother he might have had somewhere else, in another time, instead of Muramasa. That doesn't make the fresh spike of alarm that lances through Kotetsu at the sight of those eyes any less intense, though. Without realizing it, he takes another step back.
He hasn't had good experiences with robots. One bashed his head against a wall until he fell unconscious. One stole half his identity and went even further in nearly killing him. The fact that this one speaks distinguishes him from H-01, but even Cis apologized on some sick loop as she tried to cave in his skull. This one is definitely acting a lot more...fluid than either of them, though. That could be a good sign, or a bad one.
Even so, he forces a smile as Toshi carries on. Given a choice between a conversation and a fight, Kotetsu always has his preferences. "Hey, don't worry about it. Not like it's your fault. Though, uh...maybe you can fill me in? Trust me, whatever story you've got to tell, it's probably not gonna be the weirdest thing I've heard all week."

Or at least, he dearly hopes so.
