[her HOSHI- sensors went off a while ago and Yuuko's there to meet him as soon as he arrives, the door opening with a soothing waft of incense. Her expression is grimly concerned, but tight and controlled as she reaches out, not touching but offering if he needed/wanted the contact.]
Come inside. [is all she says, softly, quietly; she's had Watanuki prepare a clean change of clothes earlier, though she'd hoped (futilely she knew, but did not wish to admit) that it would not be needed.]
[he toes off his shoes, as usual, but his movements are sluggish and almost robotic--and he looks up as she extends a hand towards him. It takes him a moment, but he does reach out and take her hand, willing to be led. He does want the contact...but only from certain people. He just doesn't want to deal with many people right now.]
[she grasps his hand lightly, but firmly, and hers is a comfortable warmth to the unnatural coolness of his. Yuuko tucks his hand into her side, her other hand reaching out to rest lightly on his arm. She squeezes once, gently; a tacit reassurance and almost a permission for him to not be strong for now. The people here could handle it; she and Watanuki and, soon no doubt, Ishida-kun could all handle it. He did not have to be strong for them right at this very moment. Her voice is a soft murmur when she speaks next.]
There are clothes laid out, if you wish to refresh yourself.
[and he leans into her a little bit as she squeezes his arm, finding her warm and comforting--he's tired of being the one people lean on, for now. He just wants to lean on something else.
And to her suggestion, he only nods. Clean clothes might be good]

...Do we...
Do we know if she's going to revive like the others that die in the City...?
