So. Rui has this ping for People What Intend to Do Him/His People Harm. He just seems to know when someone is a bad person or is lying or has bad intentions toward him. But he didn't get that ping from Joshua. I think he's aware that something about the kid is 'off', but something about Rui is 'off' too, so that's okay. They have some common ground in the loudness thing, because while people will put up with his eccentricities, no one really understood them before. And the part where Joshua could understand him without Rui talking was just...amazing to him, because he has real problems communicating. Rui doesn't like talking very much and it seems like a real effort to get him to use his words, whereas in his head (and I base this on a one-shot from the manga) he is much better-spoken. So he'd like to talk to Joshua more, if for nothing else than speaking to someone else who knows poetry and for cutting the verbal middle-man out of the equation. He certainly wouldn't agree with Joshua's...politics, I suppose? But the crazy wouldn't really phase him.
