She probably forgot. Had to move on pretty quickly, since Komui was giving us the tour.

he hadn't been used to being noticed then. no one ever really noticed him -- not until he made himself be noticed. but someone had. lenalee had, even if she didn't remember after. he'd been sixteen years old -- still impressionable, cold-hearted but easily shaken, and maybe that's where the root of his crush started, just from a glimpse. his thoughts trail off, remembering the events as if they just happened yesterday --]
I ran into you right outside the medical ward she was in. Remember?
[if lenalee had been a glimpse, then meeting kanda had been a typhoon -- a whirl of terrible first impressions on both sides, not that it had daunted Lavi any. he'd only almost gotten killed and then bounced back, adamant on getting along with a fellow "comrade".]
[He gives him a Look at that, like "what do you think dumbass"]
I remember you being just as annoying as you are now.
[That's not strictly true, but--while Lavi's changed with time and age just like all of them have, it never escaped Kanda's notice that the war didn't seem to shock and hurt him the way it did other newbies. He was never as bright-eyed and naive as some of their eager, pious Finders, though Kanda never gave it much thought back then.]

You know, you and Lenalee were my first friends around my age! And I feel the closest to you two even now.
[he says it brightly, fondly -- like growing like a fungus on kanda obviously counts as friendship -- which he WILL count, thank you very much.]
