[Well, if he's going to "ask around", Toki might as well explain what happened the first time.]
No, really, it's a bad idea! It's just the first thing that came to mind because it's the first thing I really did when I got here! We were trying to channel Kokkuri-san to talk to my dead sister and help with some paperwork or something and at the time I didn't know Kano had like illusion magic and he scared me and we fell off the roof and that was kind of a big incident, so you shouldn't get involved in something like that! I'm sorry I even mentioned this whole thing or that I let it get even this far!
[Hopefully, it's sufficient enough for Orphen to walk away without incident and forget the whole conversation.]
I guess? Maybe? I'm probably not remembering it right anyway~!
[Kano has pretty much been doing that from the moment they met. It's verging on gaslighting territory sometimes, and Toki is very confused about that relationship on the whole.]
I'm sure it wasn't his intention, though~!
[Will he ever be able to successfully change the subject here is the question.]
So, you're new, yes? You got here just in time for midterms, how horrible~!

... So what you're telling me is that this Kano guy tricked you.
