[ Oh. They come over and move to his other side to take his arm gently with their good arm! ]

Want some help picking something out?

[unsync]

Something simple would be fine.

[ Just that. All button up set options are stuff like. Vampire aristocrat. Mad scientist. Tuxedo. ]

[becomemod]

Okay! [ Looking at the vampire one and pointing to it. ] I didn't know they had costumes of Pink Pig.

[unsync]

[ I've been hoping this entire time that Pink Pig was inexplicably Valvatorez. ]

Wha... they're a vampire?

[ Meanwhile, he's just astounded by this potential. ]

[becomemod]

Are they? [ Thinking about it. ] I know they say that they are an instructor, but I wind up tuning them out because they keep talking about sardines.

[ wait ] Shhh. Don't tell them I said that.

[unsync]

...

[ He thinks you're all fucking weird, for the record. How was this guy a major hero. ]

O...kay. I won't. [ He wouldn't ever rat out Mouse anyway. Well, he finds a skeleton sweater? It's not orange but it's comfortable-looking. ]

I... guess this will do.

[becomemod]

Thank you, Ryuski. You're the best.

[ Oh! ]

That looks cozy. I'm sure we can find something with orange we could add on if you want.

[unsync]

[ He will find a plain orange button-up. It's stupidly bright, such is the fate of Halloween costumes, but between this and the skeleton sweater, it's an okay combo?

This, ftr, is a fit I own in real life. ]

I think this will work... I'll leave money on the counter for it since it's probably going to get some blood on it.

[becomemod]

Okay. There might be changing rooms or you can sneak in the back. Are you still bleeding? Do we need to get some bandages?

[unsync]

The remedy stemmed most of it, but I didn't get to take a shower.

[becomemod]

Oh okay... [ There's only fake blood here which wouldn't help clean the real one off. ]

Do you want to talk about it after you change?

[unsync]

About what?

[becomemod]

About earlier and how you are doing?

[unsync]

...

Do you mean the, uh... long... trip, that we had?

[becomemod]

Yeah, I mean the long trip. You got hurt on it, right?

[unsync]

[ Oh. Yeah. The rat. ]

Um... it's a long story. I think it... lasted half a year.

[ Thought bubbles of his family... ]

[becomemod]

Oh. [ Oh. They open up cape to hold out their good arm. Other one is still in the sling. ] I don't know where you're hurt at, but if you want a hug, I can do my best.

[unsync]

[ ...I forgot about those. ]

Right. Okay.

[ He'll accept and give hug. A little conservatively but only because he's hurt, his shoulder is a little wonky.

Was this sling from the car incident or is this new... ]

[becomemod]

[ Same sling! Bones take a while to heal. ]

I will try not to look at your thoughts, but I am here if you want to ever talk, Ryuski. It must have felt really, really bad losing them again.
