[He takes all this in.

He doesn't envy soul feeders.]

....

Do you want to tell me about it?

It's fine if you don't.

[softspokenlandlord]

[Ryou glances at the other Yugi blandly...well. Mostly blandly. But there's a twinge of emotion trying to claw its way out there, and it gives him pause.]

I would like to talk about it, yes. But I don't think...we should talk about it now. It would be a disservice to what happened to who I hurt, and all the other monsters that were hurt that month, and also...me, I suppose.

[Maybe another time. When he can feel the weight of his words.]

[knifemonopoly]

Okay. I'll wait!

[He puts a hand on Ryou's arm, with no idea if it'll be reassuring or not, since emotions and physical contact are often intertwined but not always the same. He does it anyway, though.]

For now, let's go home.

[He'll figure out his next move there.]

[softspokenlandlord]

[The contact doesn't receive it's full appreciation, but Ryou's expression softens somewhat. He understands what the other Yugi's doing here.]

Thank you, Yugi. Your patience is very much appreciated.

[He won't harp on how he knows it's hard, he already did that once and he's not full of ultimate anxiety like he usually is. Lucky for you, other Yugi. Ryou's pretty compliant.]

Alright, home it is.

[...Too compliant.]
