Its obvious who it is given his somewhat unusual features, and also obvious that he doesn't know the camera is recording.

[Its a while before he answers, but he does, eventually. His voice still sounds devoid of emotion]

...yeah.

[hurtandscared]

[Ha, guess who saw those clips?]

[darc_nidellia]

[There's another delay whilst he thinks about this; he's reluctant for anyone else to see him in this state, but he knows Riku has seen him worse, and it would be better being alone with the images playing through his mind...]

...Alright.
