Oh, yeah. But he's not so selfish as to tell Tadashi about them now, not when he's got the world on his shoulders. He hasn't told anyone about it, honestly, and almost selfishly? He doesn't want to. He just wants to nurse these hurts on his own for a while, just him and Khaji, because he has the luxury of denial. It's not blowing up in his face immediately, so he gets to ignore it.]
Just catching up with a couple people after the whole Devil thing, you know the drill. Buddy of mine kissed me, and we hadda hash that out, [he says with a casual shrug and an air that suggests that it's all been taken care of -- which that particular incident has. It feels better than telling Tadashi an outright lie.]
Besides, [he adds on, flapping one hand in Tadashi's direction,] you don't get to apologize for talking to me about this stuff. I'd be a pretty crappy friend if I didn't listen, and... well, that's what I can do, right now.
[It's all he can do. Let him help, Tadashi! He feeds on feeling useful.]
