Kaoru the man that you are…
 
Vincent is pretty used to looking down at people, since it comes with being particularly tall, though Kaoru who's even taller than him being beneath him is a particularly strange angle, though Vincent definitely notices the way the tower is being blocked like this as is soon confirmed by Kaoru's words.

"You're not wrong, it's hard to know just how closely we're being monitored at any given time here. And even in general, it's… yeah," he finishes lamely. Vincent doesn't feel the need to spell out any experience he may or may not have in terms of judges, cops, or any other such authorities, but the sentiment is certainly understood regardless.
…Another invitation to join in on a projection, huh? With how Bow-Wow's had gone, maybe he should be more hesitant to go into these things in the first place, but… If he's being given full permission anyways, and Kaoru himself had ultimately been at least physically fine after what had happened to him, it was something he was willing to do anyhow.

"…Very well, then. Though if you're leaving it to what I want to ask, you might not get what you're hoping to out after all- Though I suppose I'll see if I have any pressing questions after I actually see whatever that machine makes happen."
 
Who knew what the hell would happen in there that might change that, after all. Vincent does ultimately get the impression that Kaoru… kind of wants whatever shit he has going on to be known by him though, even if it's being said so indirectly. Like he's being encouraged to try, though Vincent can't fathom why just yet. He'll just have to find out when he finds out.
 

"………..If they come to take you to yours, just give a shout or something then, and I'll be there." A literal shout, presumably, it wasn't that hard to hear those with the size of this place. "Though if you're planning to resist despite the inevitable, it might not be hard to hear it in the first place."
