[ What Yu doesn't do is reach for Minato, as has become sort of customary in recent times. Taking him by the hand, or by the wrist, or leaning into him... it's still a new thing, but a new kind of normal. Right now, though, Yu doesn't get close. He maintains a perfectly normal kind of distance.
His eyes search Minato's face, noting how tired his friend looks. There's a drag on his own soul, an ache he still feels, but he doesn't show it physically. The only people who know he's been pushing himself at all are Rise and Dipper, because they live with him.
Finally, he just nods. ]
Yeah. I feel a lot better than I was. How about you?
