... I see. That's very brave of you. [The 'but' is there even though it's not spoken. She adds a quiet, benign,] You didn't say anything about going out tonight. [It's unintrusive, just that sentence sitting there waiting to be interpreted however it might be. It's true that she doesn't blame him for not wanting to say anything, and she understands why he wouldn't. She's not chastising him, exactly, just reminding him that if something had happened to leave him incapacitated somewhere, she'd never know to help him and just be left to wonder and worry. Feel bad yet, Riku?]
