( he wonders if he should be watching toge this entire time, especially as he removes the cover that keeps his mouth covered? somehow lio feels a little self-conscious, but looking at the other boy with big and curious eyes... he has to peel them off of toge and chide himself for staring like an idiot.

lio can almost read his mind. yeah, it's a lot harder to put it into words, isn't it? there are a wide range of emotions but in order to channel those on the extremes--- positive and negative, it takes effort. more than what lio wants to expend in normal circumstances. )

How about bravery? Have you ever put yourself in harm's path to save someone? Would you continue to do it, to make your home a better place?
