[Ryou steps into Atem's room, which feels weird. They were always in his room, they slept in his bed...not this one. But Atem was correct--Ryou didn't want to sleep in his room. Things were back in place, perhaps, but it still felt...wrong. The experience in general is still raw, and he doesn't want to think about it.
Gruesome things tend to roll off his back, but not that. Not yet. Maybe not ever?
He can't think about that now. He can't.]
Yuo should too, though. If not right now...then sometime soon. You do too much, Atem. Have you been resting enough since I was...
[Dead?]
...away?
[Will Atem even be honest with him? He doesn't believe that Atem would lie, just that he held himself up to a higher standard than others, and so didn't think he needed to take breaks. But there's still time to consider the answer as Ryou busies himself with moving towards the bed, running a hand across the sheets and reveling in the thought of being in Atem's personal space, just for a little while. In his bed.
He also thinks about what a pretty name Kiya is. Thinking about what it must have been like, being part of the royal family. Was she comfortable being the wife of a pharaoh and the mother of the future of their people?]
