There's some confusion in Akiha's voice, certainly. Like she's asking someone about a foreign country. But disgust? Never.
She can sympathize too much with what Nico just said, after all. She chews on Nico's answer and her crepe at the same time, a long silence passing over them as they walk.
"I've never seen it on TV. That's - why I reacted the way I did, I suppose. My home only has one television, and we only bought it after my father passed away. I don't even use it regularly, I just purchased it for Kohaku's sake. She's a surprisingly modern girl," Akiha goes off on a tangent there at the end, but she hopes that helps explain, if not excuse, her response. If her father didn't even care to own a television, it would be easy to guess how old-fashioned he was. And without anything to reference, even exaggerated pop culture, it would be hard to grasp something she had been taught to dismiss.
"It's not as if I've never heard of it, mind. I do go to a girls' school. Sometimes people gossip, and even I'll admit to thinking a few of my underclassmen were charming. But that..." Making it a core part of your identity, referring to an interest in guys as something that could never happen. It all just seems so - foreign.
Akiha chews on her crepe again. It's clear she's thinking a lot about what to say, and more than that it's clear there's a lot of things she wants to say. She opens her mouth a few times and then says nothing, takes another bite of her crepe as they walk. Before long it's gone, and she's left with the empty wrapping. "... I'm sorry. I shouldn't be pushing my curiosity onto you," she finally says.
"But thank you for trusting me enough to tell me. I do appreciate knowing more about you, Yazawa."
