Ryou's eyes slowly opened as rays of sunlight hit his face. He stretched his arms out as he sat up in his bed. As he got out of bed he made his way over to Yuo's 'castle', a large cardboard structure that took up most of a coffee table that it sat on. Next to it was a plastic exercise wheel, and a wide variety of various toys, and tunnels for her to play with. She was rather spoiled. He peeked into the top of her castle, where her nest of tissues, straw, and pillow stuffing was hidden. She was inside, still resting.

A small smile crossed his face as he watched her sleep. He didn't get much rest during the night, getting up and down to check on her, worrying himself to death over her. Despite her protests that she was fine, he just couldn't help it. He looked over at his refrigerator, internally debating whether he should go ahead and fix himself some breakfast, or wait until he meets up with his siblings. He was sure Harmonix had breakfast already prepared for him, and the others. He finally shrugged his shoulders, well it would be rude not to eat whatever it was Harmonix most likely cooked for him.

"Yuo, time to wake up. Let's go to the others for some breakfast." Ryou called out after he threw on his clothes. The white mouse slowly peeked her head out of the top of her castle, almost glaring at him for waking her up. ~Ugh, why do I have to go? I'm tired. Far too tired to deal with those disgusting felines of your sister, and those despicable feathered fiends of your brother!~ "Come now! They've never once harmed you! Besides, I'm not leaving you alone while you're still recovering. And that's that."

~Hmm, look at you being all assertive. How unlike you. Very well, but know that I do so under protest.~

Ryou grabbed an empty box, and placed a pillow inside to carry Yuo. While normally he would simply carry her around in his pocket, but with her injuries he was afraid that it would be too uncomfortable for her. As he prepared it for her a familiar scent crossed his nostrils. 'Vanilla? Where have I smelled this before?' He looked out of his window, and saw the most peculiar of sights, Miss Himura curled up on the ground. And was she crying?

Ryou put down the box, and went outside, slowly approaching her. “I-I can’t … I can’t believe that a-a God exists … That is malevolent enough t-to steal the only people that have ever m-mattered to me!” she cried, her fingers curling into fists. “I’ve done nothing … But try t-to be a good person … And this … This is how the universe treats me in return …” Shaking her head, she let out a dry laugh that was completely devoid of any and all humor. “It must be some sort of sick, cruel joke,” she ended on a whisper, once more dropping her forehead to her knees, fresh tears leaking out of her eyes.

“Just a sick, cruel joke … Jokes on me, I guess … Hah … I-It’s so funny, too …” "I don't think it's funny at all." He said as he approached her. "I...I too know what it's like to lose someone you care about. To lose someone that makes you feel like you belong." He said, while he may have gotten Harmonix back, it still doesn't replace the pain that he felt when she left. "I may not know you very well, nor what it is that pains you so, and it may not be my place to say, but it will get better. It may not seem like it now, but pain is temporary. It always hurts before it gets better, that is how you heal is it not?"

"It's easy to think of pain and hurt as something bad, and that shouldn't exist, but where would mankind be without pain?" He looked up at the sky, watching as the snow began to float down to the ground. "Think of all the art, music, and literature that wouldn't even exist without it. And how could you appreciate joy without experiencing sorrow? When bad things happen people are so quick to forget the beauty in the world, and yet focus on the bad, but I think both are needed to make it complete."

Ryou looked down at Reiya, and extended his hand to help her up. "Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. You should get off the ground, you may catch a cold." He said with a large smile on his face. "This is my home, would you like to come inside for something to eat or drink Miss Himura?"
