[Raiodou focuses on the crowds ahead of them, wishing he could enjoy himself among them right now. He'd give anything for things to be right, so he and his friends could wade in among the celebrants here and just forget about things for awhile. He's just so tired.]
I would if I knew how.
[No tears ever come. No laughter. Like the needle of his emotions never moves far enough to one side or another, never far enough to let them be shown. Sometimes it did make him feel like he wasn't human, or at least not like most others. Was he always meant to be like this? Was it his upbringing? It's something he's wondered. Maybe if he could figure how to, his emotions wouldn't come out in the ways it has been lately. Maybe he could finally laugh and cry alongside Yuji.
Speaking of. Another in the long list of things Raidou is worried about lately, though admittedly it's towards the top of the list. His eyes stay on the crowd, his voice still tinged with melancholy.]
... I'm worried about Yuji.
[For him to speak it out loud means he is, indeed, very worried.]
