Roman watched his reaction in confusion. What could it be then he objected to- Ah, he followed his movements silently to stare at the video game console he took out from his desk. From his face, it clearly seemed it was the first time he saw one of these in person. Someday, he would learn to mask his feelings better, but these were so new that bubbled on the surface. He vaguely recognized it from the commercials and maybe from the glimpses caught during his window shopping in London and Fuyuki.
"Uh, is it wrong that you like playing games?" he asked, feeling like a country bumpkin. What a good cause to use to dismiss his ignorance. "Games have always been important even in ancient times, as means not just of recreation, but they are also very useful to teach skills." He blinked and felt his cheeks flush a little. Was he saying something inappropriate? There were many things the Grail had supplied him to avoid culture shocks (and many things he had seen), but the societal view of games and maturity was none of this.
"You're being too humble again," Roman pointed out, "There might be a reason why you gave that estimate." Namely, the doctor thought, because of the generation switch. While some magi extended their lifespan, most of the old generation would be replaced in a century by their heirs. At least in the Clock Tower, the generation change could shake the previous pillars if someone with Waver's position as a teacher and lecturer was successful in teaching them to be less isolated. That was something he considered when Waver first gave the date.
"Really?" Roman asked, a little surprised to learn that. "I suppose Billy acts a little wary of people in general." A little seemed like an understatement. Didn't he say he was his first and only friend?
