"Ahh, I know you really want to talk to me, but I'm a pretty busy guy, you know. I guess you'll just have to leave a message so I can get back to you later, hm?"
[He can tell that there is a big difference in how they view the situation, and more fundamentally in the relationship hinted at, and in a strange way he's relieved. That really makes no sense at all, because why should he really care at all how this Souji interacts with someone who isn't even here - and who he has no personal connection to even if he was?
But the truth is that everything Hijikata means to him exists at the very core of his being, and if it could really be that easily replicated with a couple of complete strangers... well, it would cheapen it somehow. So although there are similarities, it seems different enough to console Souji on that point, and that puts his mind a bit at ease. Maybe it's silly, but it's not like he's going to say it out loud.]
I'd probably think he was sick - though at least that would mean I'd get to fuss over him and not the other way around. [A long-suffering sigh and a bit of a pout, before he once more brightens up.] But if he really was possessed, I suppose I'd just ask Hajime-san what to do about it. Ask him to cleanse the strangely patient and sensible spirit from the body it had taken over.
