Reira's question startles him, and there's an immediate downswing to his mood--which is matched, inexplicably, by an upswing in his outward behaviour?

"What, me? I'm fine, haha!" It's not the kind of warm, sincerely motivated emotional masking Reira's probably used to from people like Yuuya--it's decidedly more desperate, and a little... ominous.

"Don't worry about me! Really." There's some... unnatural force there. But honestly, Reira doesn't know how lucky she is that this is all there is to it. He's handling it much, much better than he would have a couple of months ago.

It's a precarious condition, though, and one he's barely hanging onto.

Try Again?
