If anyone paid close enough attention to Amjad, they'd notice a very odd quirk: he slept with his eyes open, staring blankly forward with lidded eyes. Comical almost as his head slumped to the side at Toshiko's driving, bringing him back into the concious world for an instant before falling back to sleep. Being in any form of seated transportation put Amjad to sleep in a couple of minutes at most, it was amazing how he could go from being definitely awake to out cold in a few moments once a vehicle got going. Even with Toshiko's driving, at that. 

When the van was finally brought to a halt the artificer awoke once more, for good this time. He looked around the van with a dopey expression, his hands reaching out to squeeze the shoulder of someone near him, Akihiko being that person. Amjad stared at him for an uncomfortable moment, crimson eyes squinted in intense scrutiny... before nodding. He unbuckled and then nearly stumbled out of the van to follow his boss.

What was that about?

[i]"Too big."[/i] 

That was Amjad's first observation of the mansion, speaking his thoughts aloud at the door of the mansion. With a place this big, there was bound to be some sort of security detail watching the grounds and an area around it, right? He made a mental note to see if he could inquire to things happening around the mansion rather than on its grounds. 

The door opened to to a girl, one which stirred an unknown sensation in the head and chest of the issue-riddled craftsman. He couldn't identify what these kinds of things were, nor display them - it'd always been that way. From the thing people called anger to that wondrous thing known as happiness, they did not exist within the boy. Only one unidentifiable sensation which sometimes felt a little bit different from the last time he felt it. 

He didn't have to be able to identify or telegraph his feelings to know that this Alexithymia business was horrible.

Amjad distracted his gaze from the maid by trying to look past her and into the mansion, letting others do the talking for now.
