[ You shouldn't, a distant voice in his mind retorts.

(it's [REDACTED]. [REDACTED] is the voice)

Yu is quiet for a long moment, eyes searching her face. But slowly he'll nod, accepting her decision. Even with his mind such a fucking mess, making it much harder to judge ... he's at least reasonably confident that she's truly making this decision for herself, and not just for him. ]

Thank you... I truly believe this will really help us out.

[ he pauses then, thoughtful as he briefly glances away. softly: ]

... it was something Zoe and I had discussed ... me defecting to Cunning, so I could use Art of Deduction in the next trial...

[ Madoka reaches her hands out into the space between them, silently asking for his hands to hold. ]

I'll use it for you. I don't mind.

[ She wasn't as close with Zoe as she would have liked to be, but it's... Nice, in a way, to feel useful. To do something for both Yu and Zoe. ]

[ He blinks at her, in that slow and owlish way he's had about him since mid-Saturday; but he'll slowly extend his hands for her to take.

Yu will, however, try a smile. It's stiff, requiring obvious effort on his part, but he wants to try. ]

Thank you, Madoka.

[ It just makes her feel better to hold hands like this for a moment. Even if she looks self conscious about it. ]

It's nothing.
