"That's very interesting, actually." Ken looks to Alphinaud with a slight tilt of his head. "You say it as if you have magic back in your world, Leveilleur-san."

Actually, that would make sense. Ken takes notice of his pointy ears. "Now that I think about it, it would make sense. With your ears, that would make you an elf according to fantasy books. You're supposedly experts in magic."

It doesn't hit how insensitive that might be until a second later for Ken. He looks down. "Oh, sorry, I-- shouldn't have assumed that. That was very rude of me, I apologize."
