[ He keeps standing in the location he has been in before with his hands pressed to his eyes, not crying, but just trying to block out anything and everything. ]
[ A broken Souji is a poor leader and a broken Souji he is now. ]

slowly, she stands on her tip toes and gently presses both hands to Souji's elbow.]

[ When he feels little hands on his elbow, he moves one of his hands to look down and when he does, he feels a hundred times worse. Oh god, has... has Nanako been watching this all? He covers his eyes again, shutting them. ]
Sorry, Nanako. I... You should head to bed. [ said in the weakest voice ever. ]

[she shuffles closer to him, wrapping her arms around his waist as far as they can go.]
I want to stay with Big Bro.

[ He takes a deep breath and swallows around that large lump in his throat. ] You shouldn't had seen that.

It's not your fault! You and Yosuke-nii love each other, don't you? You got mad because you care, but... you didn't know how to show it.
You did that to show Yosuke-nii how much you love him, right?

She slowly moves closer. There's only one thing she can think of right now, something he'll definitely remember. She's not going to ramble on about things, she just wants to start by letting him know that she's here, like she wants to be.
He didn't hug her on that day, but that's fine. Her eyes still a little damp from tears, she wraps her arms around him and gives him a soft hug from behind. There's no romance in it, though. She worries briefly if he won't recognize the gesture, if this won't make sense to him, but words spill out of her mouth--]
I'm here. ...Let's go, okay?

I'm fine. I... I can handle it.
[ This again, exactly the point that Yosuke has brought up; trying to do things on his own. It's his biggest flaw because that's what a leader does and that's what he's going to do. ]

[She rests her forehead on his shoulder, speaking quietly. Like always, her words have that harshness to them, but she's being completely honest. Her tone is much more gentle than it usually is as well, as it's been a while since she's wanted to call Souji an idiot. He really can be sometimes, but she knows they all are.]
You taught me that I can't do everything by myself, remember?
[It's sad, she thinks, that he has this problem, but she always saw it. They way he helps everyone, those times she was jealous because he had so many friends and she was alone...she remembers them all so well. It's not about that anymore, though.]
I'm not letting go.

It was such a stupid mistake. I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have let my temper rise. [ That's who he is, who he's suppose to be. Always the calm Senpai, Sensei, Leader, Partner, friend, everything. He's always suppose to be rational and logical. Why has he let his buttons get pushed on so easily? Why? ]

I'm not going to say that it wasn't a mistake, or that you shouldn't have done that...but it happens to everyone. [She squeezes him a little tighter.] If...if I broke down every time I was that angry, though, there would be nothing of me left. You saw me at my worst. Why won't you talk to me? I want to help, too.

Still, it's clear the older boy needs support, and Asuma will do his best to give that.]
...Hey.
Reply
[ He reminds himself to breathe and replies after half a minute. ] Sorry... You-- You should just forget about tonight.
Reply
[He smiles, but it's definitely a bit wan.]
...Do you want to talk, or would you rather not?

He knelt down in front of his friend. It hurts, he knows. He can see it. What should he say in that moment... ]
Hey, buddy. I'm here for you, okay? You need to rest...
