[His handshake is firm. Practiced, like a smile in a mirror.]

[He drops his hand once it's released, folding it back in front of him with the other. Perhaps, if the other man is observant, he will note the inked tattoo of a 001 on the inside wrist of his left arm.
The courteous smile on his face has not gone anywhere, though.]

My name is Aunamee. What's yours?
