[For the most part it's good that Takeshi's that strong, but there's still an edge of annoyance in the statement. The part where it's not good is dangerous, has been or it's been a near miss, for him and Kazama and even the kid himself. It's shoved aside quick enough as he takes a long, quiet moment to watch her, surprised when it kind of pangs to see the way she holds herself, screams fix it at him almost as insistently as if she was crying rather than looking completely morose.
Enough time for a deep breath and he wraps his arm around her to tug her close, reaches to grab her spoon and he's not sure if that's a tease or a threat.]
Y'look -
[Sad. Tired. Worried. Stressed. Too thin in too many different ways and rumpled and not exactly ragged but. Something. He's not sure why he even started to say anything, seems useless to point it out when she probably knows.]
