Katsuya nods along as best he can. He's never had someone like that, so it's difficult for him to understand. He's had role models, people he's admired. Even people he'd come to care for.

But a friend, closer than blood who he could share anything with? Not even close. Baofu was probably the closest friend he had and--well. That spoke volumes.

The subject of Loki makes Katsuya uncomfortable. Not because he feels threatened. He honestly chose to out himself in a way that kept Verity from knowing just so he wouldn't have to have her worrying about it. Whatever Loki was to her, Katsuya didn't want to get in the way.

He's uncomfortable because he doesn't want to tell her he's okay. He doesn't know. Nor does he want to ask if there had been any news from him, because he's seen her cry enough for a lifetime. It wrenches his heart to think about causing it on purpose.

"I expect he doesn't like the more mundane 'Loki mistook the sugar for the salt again' stories about him, then." Katsuya smiles a little into his rice bowl.
