it's gone almost instantly, though. the mention of the seemingly everpresent danger that follows them, even after the apocalypse... one look at ren tells him they're in the same mind about this, even though aichi doesn't really understand the details mentioned just yet.]

[he does step back a little more, but gently takes one of ren's hands with him. a quick once-over confirms what he'd been thinking.] You've been awake a lot longer, right, Ren-san? And by yourself...? [the last part he's less sure about, but something in ren's manner has him thinking it's true.]
