"... Leave a message."

Manabu doesn't tell me everything. [He smiles gently.] And I think he'd rather you tell me yourself if you would like to.

No pressure, however! I'll understand if you don't want to share.

[They weren't close, after all. Though, Ryunosuke is looking to change that.]

Oh, Jun... I'm so sorry.

[Maybe they can put off house hunting for today. Fish walks over and sits down next to Jun's feet, an offer of solidarity.]

I'm sorry for your loss. [A pause.] Why don't we go back inside and just talk for now? If you're feeling up to house hunting we can still go out but... I think this might be best.

[Better to talk inside where no one else can hear them when it's a sensitive topic.]

[He knows he's not fine, but he doesn't call him out on it either. He looks concerned, and nods, understanding.]

I know how you feel. It's not...easy, losing someone you're close to, especially here. [He takes a step forward.] It took Manabu some time to come back when he died, so it's very possible he will return.

Though... I know we can't be certain. [He sighs.]

Yes, shortly after I arrived, actually. He was my first friend here in Trench. I don't remember how long it took him to come back but... he did eventually return.

[He shakes his head. That statement sounds like something he would have said a few years ago.]

It's not stupid. To feel that way, you know. But I can't see why he would not want to see you if you are friends.

It'll take time to recover from something like that. [Literally. That bond was no laughing matter. Considering he had not done it himself...he's at least read enough about it to know.] I remember feeling the same way when I lost my friend, though I'm not sure it's quite the same.

[It was like he lost a piece of himself, with no time to grieve. As soon as he made shore he was thrust into work, constantly reminded that he should be there.]

I'm sorry. I don't think there are words to help in this situation. We just need to find a way to move forward. [Easier said than done.] I hope he returns soon, though.

[If at all. He knows he can't promise that Falco would return, but they can at least try and be optimistic, right?]

Probably the same reason I stuffed myself into a suitcase to travel from Japan to England without a thought of how it would actually work. [He smiles gently, reaching out to place his hand on his shoulder.] Because you care for him.

What stupid thing are you thinking of doing? [Hopefully it wasn't too dangerous.]

It's kind of a long story.

[A long story and a pretty ridiculous reason for contorting himself into a suitcase, but he's willing to tell it if asked.]

I'm sure it's not that stupid. [He smiles a bit though.] If you don't want to share that's all right too. I can just keep you from doing whatever it is.

Sure. Whenever you want.

[There's a pause, some confusion as he looks over Jun.] You were thinking of...

[Oh. Oh. Ryunosuke's confusion turns into worry as he tries to piece together why Jun would want to do something of that magnitude. He doesn't think he could do something like that if Manabu or Kazuma were to die but... maybe he could relate a bit.]

Sometimes... it's hard to live when you lose someone you're close to. [He says carefully, remembering how hard he took Kazuma's death.] It's not stupid to have those thoughts... to wonder. I think I contemplated throwing myself to the sea once or twice. It's easy to say "be positive", but I think that's what we need to do right now.

Following him won't make you feel better if you come back and he still hasn't returned. [Was that too harsh? He hopes not.]

It does. ...it hurts and sometimes it doesn't go away.

[He can't count the times he's looked at Kazuma and find himself thinking that he's a ghost.]

But we work through it. It's not easy, and I'm not saying it'll happen overnight, but you have friends who are happy to help and listen.

I'm sure we'll have answers soon. [He hopes, for Jun's sake, that Falco does come back, but he will be here for him should he not return.]
