[The zest for life that Ryoji has always seemed to have is so childlike sometimes that Joshua is unable to keep from smiling. Part of that is what had captured his attention in the first place. Like a puppy, always wagging it's tail and happy to see anyone or anything, and everyone is a friend. It's not something he can easily do himself... so it's incredibly intriguing.
But, Ryoji's final words there strike that spark of doubt that's always there, no matter whether he's expressing it or not. Back in Ryoji's world, Minako makes him this happy, and Joshua knows it. Here, it's difficult to gauge, but he knows for sure that back at home, that sentiment wouldn't be true. But he says nothing, does nothing to express it, and simply rests his chin on Ryoji's chest, smirking.]
Easy to please goes well with high-maintenance, after all.
