[Rohan sure McFreakin' Wowed Karamatsu, that's for sure. Honestly, if he'd allowed for more time for him to dwell on it, he might have started getting misty right there. Hell, he probably is, but Rohan keeps talking and there's really no time for him to waste crying, is there?

He is completely still and completely silent the entire time Rohan speaks, staring like a deer in headlights. It's quite honestly all he can manage at the moment, seeing how there's a lump so large in his throat now that he doesn't think he can remember how to swallow. His heart is racing and he's feeling a bit ill, but...

Somehow, for some reason, he's also a little excited, too. Maybe he's truly lost his mind, here in Ryslig. Maybe he's just thrilled to have someone- anyone at all- see potential in him. But to get it from someone like Rohan, someone so overwhelmingly talented, is astronomical to Karamatsu.

His claws tremble as he takes the paper, but it's not through being nervous any longer. He'll no doubt have a million questions when he gets back to the park, but for now he's gone numb.

He...has a job.

His voice trembles a bit, too, when he speaks. But only a bit.]

N...no, I...thank you, Kishibe-san. This truly...is an honor.

I will make everything I do worth your time. You will not be disappointed in me.
