The distasteful look on the woman's face is almost perfectly mirrored by his own. Or, well, it would be if it weren't for his hands covering the lower half of it. See, he did cover up! Just... a little too late, that's all. His eyes crinkle up briefly from a cringe, his voice muffled as he offers a surprisingly sincere, "M'sorry." After a quick sniffle, he slowly lowers his hands again. Now that he's expecting the smell, he can handle it a little better. Still kind of tickles his sinuses, but he's prepared this time. Another sneeze won't sneak up on him.
Maybe.
"Ugh- sorry," he repeats with a frown. Now he feels all awkward and like he has to explain shit like no, he's not some creepy American who makes a hobby out of sneezing all over strangers. "Sometimes people like you kinda reek, I wasn't ready."

Oh, that clears things right up.
