ontrend | [superhell] catchall for ryo

I guess we should be glad we caught anyone at all. It was really looking dicey there for a while.

Yeah...

[...]

Is Akira gonna be okay? I didn't - I didn't think he was being set up to catch him. I thought Scaramouche was just being finicky about who could check his hair, but when Akira checked him it'd come up as real hair and we'd just have to keep looking for the wig...

He won't be.

[ he says it easily enough. ]

But he's going to have to figure out how to deal with it. There's nothing else he can do.

...damn it.

[he should've just tackled scaramouche and wrestled some hair out of him. twink on twink violence.]

... don't worry about it.

I'll keep an eye on him.

[phew]

Good... thanks.

... you really are very concerned.

Well... yeah. He's a good kid - he shouldn't have to bear stuff like that on his own. So it's good he's got you there to help keep an eye on him.

... it's probably better that he has other people concerned for him. I'm not really the best at situations like this.

[...]

You don't necessarily have to be, though? You just have to be... yourself. And be there. You're his friend, too, so I'm sure he just appreciates that you're there for him at all.

We'd probably end up fighting, I think.

[ he cannot emphasize how bad he is at comforting. ]

[...he thinks about the memory of ryo's he saw last week]

I mean... yeah, maybe... but if you're fighting, that at least still means you're there for him to fight with...?
