[ There's still that easier lift in his voice, his demeanour more relaxed out here. When she nudges his thigh, he blinks with a cant of his head when she asks about what he really thinks of her. Was he curious about her? Of course he was. As much as he kept the world at large at arms length back home, whilst the Grim Reaper didn't yearn to huddle everyone close to him...that didn't mean he didn't care. If anything, this world has given him an opportunity to learn so much more about others that he otherwise wouldn't have had the time for back home. Especially when he really does want to know more.
Regardless of how explosive their own initial encounter had been during the Hunt, it's the time he's spent with her outside of those salacious forays that's shown him how comfortable he can be around others. Nami was more than just easy to get along with. So if he wanted to learn more? There's one thing he has to set straight. After all, he's caused untold amounts of damage in his world on his own journey...he's hardly a saint himself, and she's fond of him. So regardless of what Nami says (or doesn't): ]
I'd wanna learn more because I like ya anyway. [ He says it so plainly, for someone he considers a friend with benefits fsdjkl ] FYI? That ain't gonna change.
