[The words come out of his mouth without thinking, before he can even turn around to face her. The book he'd been toying with, a finger on the spine tilting it somewhat out of place on the shelf, falls back into place, then topples over as he lets go of it.
Turning around, he's welcomed with a deathly apparition. Yuzu being pale with grief is nothing new to him, she's been bleached since Kurosaki vanished, and any color regained was lost when neither of them could find Yuya again. Since then, the freedom of not having to feel the hunger has seemed more like a curse than a blessing in Sawatari's eyes-it feels more and more like an excuse to not eat, to hurt, to waste away. Seeing the gradual changes day by day didn't seem like much, but now presented in front of him with all her anger, all her exhaustion, all at once, it's jarring and uncomfortable, and he wonders just how long things can really go on like this.]
...Jeez, Ten, you look horrible...
[Seriously bad timing on that, Sawatari. Even if your face is crumpling into resignation rather than anger, it's still really bad timing.]
