[The stubborn part of him that Tenka is just now referring to makes Sousei want to ask "which captain"--but that's him being unnecessarily obtuse, he knows. Tenka is handing over the Yamainu, despite the two Kumou captains before. He should accept that as the way it is.
As something he has accepted and earned.
But honestly, Tenka... Sousei still doesn't know where to start or what to say. "What else?" He's drawing a blank. Sure, there are all of those things that Tenka doesn't understand about how the squad has changed, but...bringing them up out of the blue feels either like complaining or trying to heap more guilt onto Tenka's shoulders.
Neither of which is something Sousei is interested in.
So for a moment, he's silent and still, lifting his tea cup but not taking a sip, trying to consider how to respond to that with something solid and real.]
