[ How could they simply walk away from this and go eat ice cream, what the fuck, Noah.
Ryoji chews at his bottom lip to keep himself from speaking up or acting out, because if he had his way, he'd put Noah on 24 hr surveillance to make sure he's truly alright. But he would also hate it if somebody were to do that to him, so he steps back again, with a sigh that threatens to turn into a grumble towards the end because it isn't a happy solution, but it's Noah's decision. ]
...Yeah, get some rest first, and please let us know when you're feeling better.
[Excuse you, ice cream is the perfect food to eat at time like this Ryoji. LEARN TO EAT YOUR FEELINGS]
Yeah, sure.
[He won't. Text. Not for awhile at least. He's not even planning to return home. What if the same thing happened there? Ari has dealt with so much to take him in, he couldn't risk wrecking things for her. No, he had to go...somewhere else, away. ]
I need to go change.
[He starts stepping towards the back to do that. He plans to change as quick as possible, then slip out the back door. Before he does that, he glances around at all the destruction the store got and grimaces. The place is trashed, and it's his fault.]
[The unhappy expression on her face eases into a little smile, strained as it is, and an arch of her eyebrows.]
Who do you think I am, Noah? Don't worry about a thing. I'll take care of everything here and you'll be able to come back whenever you're ready to. [And then the worry slips back into her expression.] So take care of yourself, okay?

...Any chance the boss won't fire me?
[His tone is flat, he doubts there is a chance.]
