I apologize if the gift isn't to your liking. Do you need me to find a different one? To be fair... I wasn't sure what to gift you, so I went with what I remember my colleagues would bring as a gift to any high-profile clients...
Hm? [It registers only now that the surprise in his expression isn't really... how you should receive a gift... He shakes his head, offering a smile.] No, that's not it. Nakajima, right? Thank you. This might be the most unique gift I've ever gotten.
I'm glad to hear that! It's my first time participating in something like this. We don't exactly celebrate events like these in my organization... [ Or he could imagine how awkward it would be, at least within in the Port Mafia. ]
I know what you mean. We don't do a lot of gift-giving for this holiday back home, so it's kind of fun to try it out.
[A little more like an American Christmas, or something like that. Either way, he's telling the truth -- finding gifts for people has been an enjoyable challenge. But Yu's about to go off again, being terminally curious about things he doesn't need to stick his nose into, because something Atsushi said is sticking with him.]
[ He contemplates on Yu's question, debating whether or not if it's a liability to reveal whether or not he is from the Port Mafia. The name of the organization has no bearings in this world here, but seeing as he met old acquaintances here... Maybe he should vague this. ]
[It's funny. At home, it probably would be intimidating, especially without use of his powers as a form of protection. Here? There are a lot of reasons not to be too concerned.]
That is...you haven't done anything to make me feel nervous, I guess.
Oh, I suppose that is true... And I guess the mafia really doesn't have any jurisdiction in this world, well at least for now. But my superiors who are here don't plan on doing anything.
[ He clamped his mouth, realizing he was saying more than unnecessary. For some strange reason, it feels quite easy to talk to Yu. ]
... As long as my superior isn't in danger, I don't see a reason to make enemies with anyone here.
["At least for now..." Yu tables the line of questioning that his mind starts to chase down thanks to that particular phrasing. Could be a one-way ticket to "sleeping with the fishes," like they say in the movies.
On the other hand,] Your superiors are here? That's a pretty lucky coincidence.
[Curiosity is going to be the death of him someday. Is he sort of wondering if Tsuna's name might come up without him having to out the kid? A little, maybe.]
NO worries, I apologize I was late to this myself
No problem! It's a busy time of year!

Um, I'm a low-ranking member of a mafia group...

Oh.
[If Yu had a nickel for every time he had encountered a mafia person completely by chance, and completely by surprise... well. Two nickels, right.
Definitely weird that it happened twice, though.]
Can't say I was expecting that answer.

Ah, I guess it's a little more common where I'm from but I'm surprised this doesn't make you nervous.
