Holmes watches Ryunosuke carefully, observing his anxiety with gentle eyes. The poor boy is clearly going through a lot, and without him there as a guide or a buffer. It stingss to think to deeply on it, so he won't.

"If I'm honest, there is not much I won't believe by now. The scope of this world seems beyond even my comprehension... for the time being, anyway." He lets out a weak chuckle, following Ryu to sit down.

He's handed a snack and eagerly tucks into it. He hadn't realized just how hungry he was. God, this is going to take some getting used to, isn't it? Everything feels like he's dreaming, still.

"..." He smiles softly at Ryu's next words, a veil over the pain again. "Now, I wouldn't offer this under normal circumstances, but this is far from normal, I think."

He opens his arms to Ryunosuke, now wordlessly.
