It's hard for humans to acknowledge someone as that much older when they look young.

[case in point: all the people who worry about him even when he points out that he has millions of years of experience.]

... I hope so.

Hmm, I suppose so - but you are not human and you are thoughtful enough to pay me a visit. You must have a different reason, don't you?

[it's because they're FRIENDS]

... I would say that my fate is in your hands - but you already know that I am not worried.

Technically, compared to my age, you're hardly an old man, Mikazuki. But besides that, am I not allowed to spend time with a friend?

[unsaid]

Certainly you always are - I cannot imagine a time where I would not be glad for your company.

[he's a shess stan]

But come, come, no need to be kind. I know that I am getting on in my years.

[there's

a slight tug at the corner of his lips though so he's probably just joking]

Sorry, I don't have any advice for age-related woes.
