[It hurts a lot. Ryoji's words. Not what he said, but what he hasn't said. The implication that he'd only impede Ryoji from helping Kotone and just making the situation worse. He wants to tell Ryoji that it doesn't matter, that he'd be fine still and that their connection matters more, but has his hand continues to tremble against his wrist, like he's showing how weak he actually is right now, those words remain lodged in his throat. Logically, he knows that Ryoji is right. And the reason why he's here in the first place is because of Kotone and the wish seed's influence on her, overriding everything.
But it still hurts so much. Remaining stuck here, letting Kotone continue to roam around without support. Maybe someone else has helped her by now? Which would be good, but.
His head lowers, unable to look at Ryoji, hand slipping from his wrist and displaying a sort level of defeat that is probably rare on the mutant. He just... wants to be there for her. She's the most important person to him.]
...You're saying that I would just get in the way. [He says, quietly.]
