[ The Ring-Spirit just listens, because... what else does he do? He doesn't have advice or suggestions or... even a way to point his ex-landlord at a not-Ryou-shaped target. He has no idea what to do with this. Ryou wouldn't chase randos around the streets for fun, he wouldn't kill without a good solid reason ("high off some kind of Fog-magic" is a perfectly solid reason), he... needs to feed pretty often it sounds like and Ryou would care about the people he ate no wonder he's in a state...
Ugh. The Ring-Spirit doesn't have much to work with in Ryslig. And if the Amane thing is still fucking Ryou up (and judging by that face Ryou's making it definitely is) then "hey lets play Monster World instead" isn't enough. And the whole "trying to handle the future before it's even started happening" angle is something the Ring-Spirit canNOT relate to. It's such a waste of time and energy and actually it's a thing he could advise against, right? That's. something. ]
So stop worrying. Shit will or won't happen. All worrying will do is wear you out before the shit's even started. It's true anywhere, but so much shit happens so often here, and - it's like DM'ing. No matter what you have planned, the players are going to find the one angle you never expected. Planning is just extra work that doesn't help, and worrying is just planning that's -[ er, "even more useless" might be bad phrasing?? what with the way Ryou exploded at the earlier thing, um, ]- ...less. helpful... to you...?
