His smile shifts into a smirk as he sits down next to Miss Asadi. "Otto. Hm, you know, I kind of like that. New universe, new me. What do you think?" Once seated, he leans forward in his seat a little so that he can get a better look at the inside of the car. It's not a particularly thrilling sight, but he likes looking at all the different people and, as they start going, the klack and rattle of the car on the rails makes him feel like he's on some sort of roller coaster. He lets her request wait for the moment, taking in the surroundings instead.
He's continuing to get odd looks, which eventually dulls his enjoyment of the whole experience. He's not unused to being the subject of attention in a room, but those are usually rooms in which he has control over the situation. This is different. He feels out of place. A child holding his mother's hand stares at Kirk without subtlety. Kirk meets his eyes once and smiles, but the child doesn't smile back, so Kirk dips his eyes away and looks somewhere else.
When he finally sits back again, he extends his hand to her in belated greeting and gives her his best diplomatic smile. "James Kirk. Thank you for your help. I appreciate it very much."
