Akutagawa sees no reason to lie about his current state, so instead, he simply says, "It would appear that has been the case." He glances down to his cocoa, the very thing that has betrayed him. By this point, he's already had most of it to drink, so discarding it hardly seems to have a point.

"Forgive me, Miss Claudia. I should have been more careful." The irritation in his voice is simply irritation at himself for being so foolish. He'd known better than to trust the city, but he'd been so cold.

How pathetic of him.
