^After the initial surprise, the more I think about it, the more it makes sense imo. Touka's blunt, but not upfront about her feelings. Asking him something like that creates a lighter mood before potentially segueing into a confession (if that's what she's planning to do). She might be "testing the waters" if you know what I mean; seeing if he's interested in a relationship without outright asking or implying that that's what she wants, or even trying to find out if he already has an unmentioned lover.
