[Ray is very obviously in the wastes, sitting on a rock, with a small pile of dead wildlife (mostly killer rabbits) at his feet. He doesn't say anything for a long moment, just picks up one of the rabbits, and begins skinning it with practiced ease. The observant may notice he doesn't look like he slept last night.

[[Shuichi doesn't care for the fact that posts that aren't filtered specifically can be read by anyone, and this will be a private conversation, so he's filtering it just because.]

I cannot say I'm not curious as to your reason for admitting this, though I'm sure the reason is likely among yourself and those here that you know.

However, tensions have been high here in other ways--does your confession have anything to do with that?

[A very round-about way of asking if Ray is in danger, basically. Shuichi doesn't think so, but things haven't been quite right the last few days. And since he and Ray have spoken before, it's enough to him to ask. He never used to care for those he barely knew.]

[Shuichi may have that problem soon, and the thoughtful expression may expression his realization of that.]

Unfortunate that you've been in such a compromising situation. [He looks sympathetic, at least. Not that Ray would necessarily appreciate sympathy, but at least Shuichi isn't mocking.]

It was a situation of my own making, unfortunately.

I understand more than you may think.

If you like, I have some tea that's quite good for soothing a troubled mind. [Shuichi offers a smile.]

I will be fine.

Of course. However, should you change your mind...
