Ryo is seated on a pillow, blanket draped over his shoulders and Lagos tucked into the pocket of his robe, when Thanatos passes by. He knows Thanatos isn't quite there - he hadn't really been during the last day of the mission, and if Ryo himself hasn't recovered, he can't expect Thanatos to have done the same - but...he can't act like nothing is wrong. Thanatos is his friend - in the illusion, Thanatos was his brother - and seeing him checked out like this hurts. He can't stand it.

He doesn't have the energy to handle this - not really - but that doesn't stop him from speaking up. "Thanatos?"
