[Claude straightens up as soon as he hears the door open, and it's just as well he's putting on appearances immediately because it does turn out to be Lorenz. In his own way, Claude considers his outward presentation just as much as Lorenz - they just have different priorities.

He offers the other man his most charming smile, and if he's a little pale still, it genuinely is fading.]
I'm fine! It's just - you know that Warp spell Lysithea has? This place has contraptions that do more or less the same thing that let you move from town to town quickly. I mean, you can only use them if you've traveled to the town normally at least once, that's why I can't take you back as quickly as I got here, but...well, anyway, if you use those machines to jump from town to town too fast, it can make you feel a little sick to your stomach, that's all. It'll fade on its own.

[Claude could lie about this, but he doesn't think Lorenz would buy it now that he can see Claude in person. Besides, he's been lying a lot less over the past year, and telling the truth really isn't that big of a deal here. Not really worth the effort of pretending.

In the meantime he leans forward, peering up at Lorenz.]
What about you? You're the one I'm more worried about.
