Well, if you take a pessimistic attitude like that, then it makes it sound like nobody who came in here is going to come out again, and who likes that kind of thinking...? [Other than grumpy people, a group Ren has a great deal of experience with. Nonetheless, he sighs and answers the question.] Not really. I came because I was curious, mostly.
[Which does line up with his rather unconcerned manner. A reason like that doesn't imply any great deal of investment in what's actually going on here. However, he listens to Mamoru's thoughts on the subject - he's not wrong about the implications, and it's something Ren's considered himself, but from the look of creeping realisation on his face, it looks for all the world like he hadn't even thought of it.]
Oh, do you think so? I feel like it still kind of counts as disappearing if nobody else can find them, though...even if they're not actually being taken by force, if the people important to them can't track them down, then it's still a problem, right?
[His manner remains light and airy, despite the relative severity of the topic. It's hard to tell whether the impression is of someone not having encountered this kind of trouble before outright, or someone who just doesn't really think it's that big a deal because it'll all turn out okay, or a little of both. But it's an impression Ren prefers to cultivate when he initially meets someone - he likes to gauge what he's dealing with before he elects to be more honest.]
