Gen fluttered his eyelashes at him. "I couldn't resist after being gone for so long, my dear!"
But he sighed. Gen could fool most people; he could even fool a lie detector. Yet he didn't usually manage to fool Senku, not about anything important. Small little misdirections, sure. He was pretty sure those worked against his friend. It's been a long time since he lied to him about anything important, however.
His smile was bemused. "That seems unfair, cruel, even. I'm in the dark and stuck on a strange train filled with odd, possibly dangerous people. If I tell you about your future, who's to say it won't turn out like all of those movies? What if giving you that knowledge means things will turn out rather poorly for all of us?"
