[Ryou repeats the word questioningly, his brows drawing together as he puts some water to boil. If anyone should be getting sympathy...well, it shouldn't be him. Hadn't he been the one that broke this guy's bones and damn near killed him? Besides, it's not like they're on friendly terms, they're just awkward acquaintances.
Either way, he busies himself with the tea, shuffling around the kitchen with an oddly nervous energy about him. His tail flicks from side to side in a rapid cadence, because it's a little stressful not knowing what Sherlock Holmes knows about him to think he deserves sympathy.
...Most people don't feel sympathy towards Ryou Bakura, or seek understanding with regard to his actions. Why would he?
Ryou moves with practiced efficiency once the water comes to a boil, and within a minute or so after, he's setting two cups of matcha tea on the nearby table, with sugar, milk and spoons trailing behind him via telekinesis. Everything that Ryou doesn't arrange with his hands still manages to set itself down neatly, so that when they sit, they'll be across from each other and comfortable.
For all his faults, Ryou does try to be a good host! Although, he doesn't offer anything to eat, mostly because his mind's distracted.]
Please...feel free to take a seat. I hope this is to your liking.
[He's interested to hear what this is all about...if a little bit anxious.]
