[This is a hard text to reply to, for someone like Ryuji, who takes everything as simply as water off his shoulders. But no, deep down inside, he was terrified of what happened to him. To look at yourself in the mirror, and then to feel something burrowing into your skin, to know that shit like that can happen out here.
He doesn't want to admit he's paranoid.
Or that he's terrified something will happen to his friends.]
Nah, you know me, I get by with scrapes on my knees all the time! I got bandaided up.
Looks even more punk than before!
[He's really, really trying his best. He's kind of glad Haru isn't with him at the moment, he's sure the look on his face would give away his anxiety.]
Yeah, we'll be okay. Look, we've been through crazier shit, and I'm always here for ya. Always.
