Summary: Realising the current state he was in, Ryosuke was depressed as the people around him worried about him.
-----------------------------
Ryosuke opened an eye to see Mio grinning at him. He frowned.
“What time was now?” he moaned as he slowly turned his head around.
“Why are you still here?” he said again as soon as he saw Shinji.
Shinji smiled.
“It’s only a few minutes after six. And can’t I watch over my little brother while he sleeps?” teased Shinji as Ryosuke pouted and covered his face with his arm, wincing as he hit the gash on the side of his head.
“Silly. That just makes you a stalker brother, isn’t it?” he said before turning towards Mio, mouthing some words that looked like he was saying ‘hidoi aniki’. Mio giggled as Shinji watched them suspiciously before forcibly lifted Ryosuke into a sitting position. Ryosuke winced at him as he ignored it while piling some pillows behind his back to further support his weight.
“Why are you doing that for? I was supposed to be sleeping!”
“Well, you’re not now... and Mio was here. You can’t possibly chat with her lying down and admit it; you wanted my help to get up.”
“Is it too much to ask but for you to leave me alone?” Ryosuke rolled his eyes at him before winking at Mio. Nagisa smiled as she lifted Mio onto the bed so that she could sit closer beside Ryosuke. As if there was a switch turned on, Ryosuke took on a different attitude when talking to the small girl.
“Did you miss me?” he asked as Mio nodded. Ryosuke smiled. “I missed you too...” he replied as they started chatting in low voices, completely ignoring the other two adults in the room.
Shinji sighed as he gestured towards Nagisa to get out of the room to let the two be by themselves. Carefully closing the doors as to not alert them, Shinji shrugged as he glanced back to see Ryosuke actually cheering up, talking to Mio-chan.
“I’m sure you didn’t plan for this visit today... but I thank you anyway. Ryosuke, had been a bit depressed today.”
Nagisa cocked her head at him, slightly curious over his words.
“Depressed? What did you mean?”
Shinji shrugged.
“Perhaps because he had been bedridden all this while, perhaps because he’s not feeling very well now... maa, I guess when you think about that, there’s a lot of reason he could be depressed about... isn’t it?” he said, nodding his head one time and another. His eyes went back towards his brother inside the room before sighing.
“Ryo... for now, would be paralysed from the lower part of his body to his legs. He wouldn’t be able to walk for a while.”
Nagisa turned towards him in surprise.
“Eh? What... why, how—?” she asked, frowning.
He shrugged.
“It’s that gunshot. It grazed his spine a bit, according to what the doctor had said. It was temporary... it should be, since there was no permanent injury to the spine.” Shinji cocked his head to one side as if unsure. “But then, you know... I think, Ryosuke must have felt awful having to rely on others to move around. He was a bit defensive, even to me earlier... when I wanted to help him around. I guess it was his sense of pride... I think.”
Nagisa sighed.
“Ryo—san, must have not liked to be a bother to everyone else, isn’t it?”
“Guess so...” said Shinji before letting out a long sigh. “Last time he even attempted to cut his ties with his family because he didn’t want to involve them with the conflict I’ve raised between us.”
“For some reason... I kinda regretted some words I said to Ryo a while back...”
Nagisa glanced at him, puzzled. “Hmmm? What was it?”
Shinji shrugged.
“I told him... no, called him... a God of Death once.”
Shinji sneered at himself. “How many times... in these few days, had Ryosuke escaped death? First it was that gunshot... then it was that strangling. Sawamura could have aimed for his head instead... and I might have arrived late to save him. When it all comes to it—it seemed, even after his powers were gone... death still follows him...“
“Shinji-san! Stop it...” Nagisa cried as she glanced towards Ryosuke’s room. Luckily, their voices weren’t that loud enough for the two inside to overhear. Nagisa took a long breath.
“Regardless... of what you may have thought—regardless if Ryo-san had been protected by the angels or the god of death; all that matters is that he’s still alive, isn’t it? Why did you have to think of unrelated things?”
Shinji choked as he leaned to the wall behind him. He sneered to himself.
“Perhaps, I also got caught up with Ryo’s depression... I think.”
Inside the room, oblivious to the concerns of the two people outside; Ryosuke and Mio were enjoying themselves... playing janken and the likes, without a care of the current situation...

Shirakawa Kana sighed.
“So sensei was feeling like that... wasn’t he?” she said slowly as Nagisa nodded. “Ryuza—can I still call him by that name?”
Nagisa nodded as Shirakawa continued.
“Earlier this morning, I came to visit sensei. For some reason, I saw Ryuzaki-san... having a nightmare. I guess even he was worried about sensei dying...”
“Of course.” said Nagisa, smiling weakly. “Ryosuke-san... was a dear brother to him, whom he was separated from for over twenty years. Someone so important to him, certainly he would be overly concerned about his well-being.”
Shirakawa fidgeted with her notebook as she mused by herself.
“About that, perhaps we can use that? It had been a shame when we didn’t manage to pull that out properly because of the incident.”
Nagisa smiled.
“Maa... that’s not such a bad idea. Even yesterday, despite Ryo-san was depressed according to Shinji-san; he still managed to cheer up with my little Mio.”
“Then it’s settled!”
Shirakawa’s eyes went wide as suddenly several of her friends popped up behind her, grinning. A bright eyed young girl by the name, Shibutani Akako smiled.
“Classes had become so boring without Aoi-kun after all! There’s no way we’d ever let Aoi-kun be depressed over things like this. We’d call those boys from that day to help!”
“We’d make it that Aoi-sensei would not be able to stop grinning, even when he goes to sleep! That’s for sure!” said another girl, Oikawa Chisato chirped in.
Shirakawa grinned mischievously as if she could burst out any moment.
“Everyone! Since when had you guys been eavesdropping on me!” she exclaimed as the girls giggled together. Nagisa smiled as she took a sip of her tea...
