[He's somewhat relieved he doesn't have to fight to convince Jusis on something like that. Sure, he can tolerate being within a space that's... not exactly up to par, but he'd prefer not to live in one. Explaining the taboos of interior living to people not from his homeland would be exhausting.
He looks thoughtful as Jusis mentions something suspicious about the patio and the bathroom.]
Let me look.
[He walks through the living room, which is otherwise unremarkable, and straight to the patio. He takes one single step onto the concrete and stops.]
There are cracks in the stone. [He looks around, feeling them more than seeing them. Finally he sees a crack leaking out from the siding of the building near the edge of the back door, and reaches out to touch it.] It's likely due to water damage. You have a good eye—it's old enough that it's begun to affect the integrity of the patio. It isn't about to collapse, but it will need to be renovated in the next five years. It's also begun to affect the angle of the slab.
