They certainly would be finding out what happened when two people with self-deprecatory personalities got together for a cuppa in saccharine establishment with so many doilies that an antique show would be jealous. It was an oddly specific situation to wonder the outcome of, but it was fairly close to the one one Ryu's mind currently.
"Ah," he mumbled as he let go of her hand and immediately moved to scratch the patch of hair just above his right ear. "Father...has a certain exhausting enthusiasm about him when it comes to his children." And he did not even want to begin to speculate what sort of ridiculous and humiliating nicknames the man had assigned to his once eldest son when pitching this idea. "I suppose another thank you is in order for putting up with all that," he continued, even managing a small laugh. "He is horrendously persistent." More thanks were in order as well, more obvious ones such as St. Mungo's continued care of his father with his recovery but it certainly seemed in poor taste to bring up a war and its causalities on a first date and especially a blind one. "Nor...have I." Something he was sure his father not-so-casually alluded to either, but Ryu would very much like to not dwell on that and fuel the awkwardness already coursing through his veins. "But...here we are...and probably for the best that we get out of this snow," he smiled with a gesture towards the door that he then pulled open for her.
He smile grew just enough to show a little peek of his teeth. "Can't deny that having good genes does help," he mused, himself and his brothers likewise receiving their eyes more from their mother than those of their father. Save for his sister who had eyes the color of neither but rather those the result of father's magic. Truly fascinating information that he was sure she would not yawn over. "I procured us a table just over there," he added now that the door was open. "Over by the corner window. It's the table just there with the gift bag upon it."
