[Ryouma isn't usually one to apologize. Not to anyone and not for anything. He can count the number of exceptions he's ever made on both hands ... counting for the select few who happen to be close to him, but mostly for Takatora. It makes him curious how Takatora will react now to hear such a rare phrase, but-
Ryouma's hand pauses in the air from where he'd pushed Takatora away. It hangs there as Ryouma stares at the other with slightly widened eyes, and its as though all of his processes have stopped. What ...? ... what was that?
There's a confusion on Ryouma's face, one that usually only presents itself when Ryouma is presented with an entirely new project. He lowers his hand -- carefully -- to rest on Takatora's shoulder, as though he's not quite sure where the safest place is to touch.
And it's enough to make Ryouma look up, meeting Takatora's gaze. There's none of Ryouma's usual, sympathetic and apologetic gaze now, as there would be normally when upsetting Takatora's shoulder. Instead, there's ... confusion and a large dose of concern.]
What happened to you?
[No. Being brought into this world ... no one should have hurt Takatora in the process. This couldn't possibly be on purpose, could it? Why ...?]
