[he's pretty quiet himself]

Now probably isn't the best time to try to talk to him.

[very reluctantly, looking away from the Sphere]

I made him angry.

Bothers you, doesn't it? [said in an almost .. understanding way, like he has an idea of how Riku must be feeling over it]

I had something I needed to say. It wasn't going to be a good time no matter what .. not with things like this.

You .. care about him, don't you?

[looks down, glasses sliding a little away from his eyes. it's easier to see his expression, anyway]
