Oh.. That's interesting. The suit was often a sign of the westernisation.
[There's more to it than that. But adopting the clothing style can be a big hint, by itself. Knowing what's recorded and what should happen is a big part of their duty.]
I haven't spend that much time with Mutsunokami Yoshiyuki... But there's a chance I might recognise him. Maybe not as well as you would.
[They're all comrades, but he's not particularly close to Mutsunokami like Hizen is. Norimune goes for another order, as he ponder over this. Izo, Ryouma... they're just missing Hanpeita.]
(Unfortunately, Hizen will always be able to recognize Mutsunokami.)
Sutoku.
(Which seems fitting from what he knows about the Alliance. He's also watching Norimune now because he can already tell... Norimune is going to go looking for him if not just keep an eye out for him, isn't he?)

(Very different from the image of Ryouma they're used to seeing in records,)
... Didn't recognize him 'til I saw Mutsunokami. Dunno if you'd recognize him right away. He looks like he used to.
(Which Norimune might be familiar with? Historically, Mutsunokami was damaged and reforged.)

... If we cross paths, I wouldn't mind chatting with him.
[Yes, yes he will keep an eye out for Ryouma.]
no subject
(It's not like he can stop Norimune.)

Whenever I can, yes.
[After all this chat, oden continue to tempt and tease their appetite. Time to keep eating.]
