So just-- let me sulk about it right now! You said to do something for myself, and letting myself actually deal with this instead of pretending it's fine is doing something!
[And then, sitting back in his seat, mumbling:]
Even if that something is just... sitting around sulking until your friends notice.
[Oh.... oh. That flick gets a tiny jump and a widening of eyes.
Atsushi listens as he speaks, and feels bad as he continues. Of course being a ghost would be upsetting for Ranpo, especially considering what had happened. Of course he just needed time to deal with it, to process and relax. He shouldn't be prodding him like this for taking care of himself.
Honestly, it's probably a healthier way of dealing than some of them had, all things considered.]
[...Okay, that gets a bigger smile out of him. Which is probably a little mean, but Ranpo looks so cute--
He quickly remedies the problem however, by getting up and tugging his chair with him so he can sit right next to Ranpo, wrapping his arms around him in a big hug. Now he can hug him as long as he likes!
It's good that Ranpo is just a bit smaller than him, he fits nicely in his arms.]

Well, he'd always had slightly better hearing than most, even without activating his ability.
He... wanted them to notice?
....He wanted to be comforted.]
....You know... you could have just said that last bit from the start.
[He smiles softly, sheepishly.]
I'm sorry for pressuring you, though. I was just worried about you.
