[If Atem suspects guilt, it's buried deep, too deep for him to want to dig up tonight. He's been put at ease; the whispers in his mind, the pointing fingers, the damning spotlights, are all quiet, for now. Sometimes, those things aren't worth disturbing...Atem will take this peace while he can get it.
He agrees immediately, not in order to assuage guilt, but because it's where he wants to be for the next hour or so.
Atem floats up off the couch a few inches, turning his hand to take Ryou's hand as his feet land lightly on the floor, and pulls him toward the bedrooms.]
