[ Despite everything he's seen in his line of work, there are still areas which fluster the young man, betraying his innocence in certain walks of life.

I see. Please pardon the, um, misunderstanding.
[ And then, just because he has been so set on using titles with... practically anyone around his age or older, he asks hesitantly. (Oh, he hates how it makes him sound so young.) ]

However, he pauses at the younger man's question. Unconsciously, he hadn't flinched at it: after all, that's what Sholmes had always called him. Asking the question alone is enough of a reminder that Holmes is a different, younger man.]

Very well, Mikotoba.
[ It doesn't seem too odd to just refer to Mikotoba like that now that Sherlock has. Interesting. ]
