(One, because probation, two, because Japan. It's much stricter when it comes to things as such, after all. He does watch it with a tilted head, tapping the ashes that accumulated on the tip of his own cigarette before he tries again and... It's a success! It tickles his nostrils when the smoke leaves from it, and he chuckles at the sensation.)
