Which could have something to do with it, actually.
It seemed luck was on Toushi's side for the night, even if he didn't know he'd gotten the right door on try one just yet. When the knock came, Kind blinked, picked KC up with a quiet "let's go" and headed over to open it.

The door opened and he turned to look apologetically at the person behind it.
"Yo, sorry to bot-"
He trailed off as he found himself staring straight at someone's chest, and then when he looked up his eyes widened in surprise as they fell on a strikingly familiar face.
He had only seen it once in the dream he had received after falling asleep in the hourglass sands, but he hadn't forgotten it, just like he hadn't forgotten the faces of anyone he had remembered. It was thanks to Kagerou that he had the name to go with it.
...Sato. No wait... Sado...
While he was deliberating, he just stared, until it came to him.
"Chad!"

While Toushi was staring, Kind was staring himself.
He really doubted there were many people in the Tree who could claim that shade and style, and even if they did, he doubted they would ring as being so familiar. Even if the last word he said didn't quite make it across.
He'd been in his dream. And that was all that Kind knew. Not having more lit a small spark of frustration in the back of his mind somewhere; one that he brushed aside instead of fanning without much trouble (almost like he'd had practice), tilting his head to regard the young man in front of him.
"Sorry," he said after a few more seconds of being silent. "Couldn't hear everything."

The fact that this giant of a guy couldn't hear the name Chad only cemented Toushi's certainty that this was him. And... and...
And what?
Man. He could totally empathise with Kazahana now and the way she had reacted when he had returned to the Sphere. This was weird. How on earth did he go about convincing this guy that they knew each other? Chad was staring and him, and Toushi was sure it was because he must have thought that he was out of his mind. And damn it, that was reiatsu he could feel and he knew it, it was familiar!
Suddenly all thoughts of KC were forgotten. Kazahana would understand, this was someone from home. It was more important than the cat.
"Uh... This is gonna sound nuts, but I know you." There was nothing like cutting to the point of the argument, after all. "I remembered you. Twice."

That saved him the trouble of trying to ask questions based on a dream and a hunch; this guy was pretty blunt. It wasn't looking like a bad trait so far. He nodded once, opening the door further as an invitation in and making sure to keep the cat out of the path of any potential stray rainfall in the process.
"I wondered."
