Shu didn’t know how he was supposed to deal with all these insecurities and bad memories popping up all the time, all he did was keep quiet about it before except for his outburst when they were practising for the people after they caught the big sea monster. While he didn’t mean for that to happen and just put it down as something else, he felt he needed to tell Takeshi about these sorts of things now that he knew it was okay to speak up about it. Looking to Takeshi as he wrapped his arm around his shoulders he gave a little nod, already feeling better with his act of comfort.

He didn’t know how much he might had hurt her if he had put a little more strength into his hits, but despite hitting hard he didn’t feel as if he could manage trying to pick her up again while his legs were feeling weak, “You have no idea…” he mumbled, looking to his hands before tightening them again, “I can’t help you up unless you want me falling on you…so c’mon, let’s go again. I shouldn’t had hit your face…”
