What a mouthful. Not that he should have expected any different, but Harvey was at least accustomed to learning how to pronounce foreign names. It came with the territory of being a lawyer -- your client sort of expected you to know how to say his name when you were representing him in a court of law.
Yakushiji, Yakushiji, Yakushiji. He'd manage. The name clearly wasn't Chinese, that much he knew. Japanese, probably. When he heard the honorific, that was more or less settled, and he dropped his hand. If he'd felt the need to be respectful to this man, he might have bowed his head -- but he didn't, and so he left it at that.
"So, this your first time?" he asked with a nod to the bus itself. It was a simple way to figure out just how long the man had been around, and if it turned out that this was Yakushiji's second trip, then Harvey would probably have a few questions for him about the zombie incident.
Trying to ignore just how surreal his life had become, Harvey sipped on his shake and glanced out the window as he waited for an answer. He still wasn't quite used to how green this area was.
Tenzen spared a glance out of the window, watching the greenery pass by as the vehicle continued moving. Dent seemed to be curious with his questions, but on the other hand, there was little left to discuss in this facility.
"It is my second time," he responded to the question, shifting his dark eyes back to the other man. And the fourth time the institute came up with such nonsense, if his 'source' had spoken the truth last time.
It looked like they shared that one thing in common, then, even if it was just a matter of how long they'd been stuck in this place. Harvey nodded in response to the man's question. "Same for me. Did you manage to avoid getting bitten?" Even though there'd been some murmuring going around about how people had been infected, all of that had seemed to die out (no pun intended) by this point.
Just in time for it to happen all over again, maybe? Harvey didn't want that to be the case, but he wasn't going to buy into false hope either.
This conversation hadn't amounted to too much, but he'd determined that Yakushiji was capable enough to handle a zombie attack and was willing to give information. He also wasn't annoying, just serious. In any case, he might be worth talking to in the future, but Harvey's interest didn't extend beyond that.

"What about you?"
