[quote=AbigailTenshi] Once she heard the sound of Juki's voice, Ritsuna perked up, the end of her fork in her mouth. She listened to him talk before her eyes slid to the half empty plate of food in front of her, placing her utensils down on the edges of the plate. A smile slowly grew on Ritsuna's face before she looked up and at Juki. She spoke her thoughts, unable to keep anything from her Master. Even if she did try to lie, Juki knew her thoroughly, enough to call her out on it almost instantly. [/quote] Juki watched Ritsuna carefully, listening to every word she said. "[b]It is true, Kaizo is indeed a lot more upset than usual. I feel I know why however I dare not to ask...I do worry though. Perhaps you'd do a better job of it than me, I'm not exactly the greatest at these sort of things and if I go saying the wrong thing I could upset him, plus you are a much easier person to talk to than I. You have a much more soothing look, and your voice is gentle...the sort of things Kaizo may need right now. However...only go if you are that concerned...if not. Then do not worry...[/b]" In truth Juki could have likely gone and talked to Kaizo but it was good for Ritsuna to show care for others...
