[He gets it. Trying to fix something that wasn't his business to mess with was wrong, especially if he couldn't make it stick. And he doesn't want to make Atem think about things like this too hard, because that's just not fair. He's been through so much, and May was...very tough on him, to put it in simplest terms. So...Ryou deflects the topic entirely by...of all things, brushing his hand against Atem's forearm.
He wants to loop his arm around Atem's, but absolutely platonically. Yeah...]
I have other things I could practice anyway.
[It's said faintly, like he's on the verge of another yawn. Why is he so sleepy?]
Things that don't have the chance of hurting...or messing things up. Like...invisibility. Or maybe motor control with my tendrils.
