He tipped his hat absently to them. "You're too kind." And that was maybe a little playful too, since he'd just indicated not knowing anything about them.
He fell into step a little behind and a little beside them, and he'd be amused if he knew enough to comment on the phenomenon of stealing books from a library only to return them. That was just petty.
"Course, course it is." He agreed to the overstep, "See, my definition of a friend may be a little different anyway, but if you'd rather have us just be acquaintances, that's fine by me."
He followed them with his cane balanced on one arm, grinning more easily now and getting comfortable surprisingly quickly. "This kinda thing's hard to research that way." He said casually, "You'd have to go through a lot written by folks who like a little more ...bloodlust... with their foreign religions. Besides - why read when you could ask? You and me, we could give a little back and forth, I'm sure the world you come from is just as interesting as mine."
