[Never underestimate the fearsome observational powers of a creature whose entire purpose in life is to serve people, Akira. He's spent a long, long time watching them, trying to determine what they want and feel without needing to be told, developing his sensitivity to approval and distress. He may not be very good at sussing out intent, and he may struggle to understand why someone feels the way they do..... but just realizing someone is upset? That is hard to slip past him.
The exaggerated grin reads more like a grimace to him, but there's no need to call it out, not when Akira is admitting the tragedy that befell his band along their path. There's not much that can be said about that..... so would Akira like a hug instead of another message?]
