[The light turns on and for the first time since he's gotten the ability, Ryou's body erupts in spiky protrusions from his back, his arms, there's even two hornlike protrusions which split through his hair.
To say he's surprised would be putting it mildly.
When Atem asks him where he intended to go, Ryou alights back on the ground, willing the spikes back in and regaining tangibility. He hadn't even touched anything, what gave him away?!
(the eyes. idiot.)
His tail lashes from one side to the other behind him, then settles around his feet which are practically glued to each other at the ankles. Oh, he looks caught alright.
And that, more than anything, is why he faces the door, and not Atem.]
O-out. I was...I'll be back. I will.
[It's not a lie. It isn't, he would be back...eventually.]
