[ When he's like this, it's usually easier to just let Rex talk. If you let him get you on a tangent, you'll end up so derailed that it won't hit you that he never answered the question until the conversation's long since over. Ryoko's already learned that the hard way a few times. It's not that she wants to pry, but she knows that if he just lets it sit around in his head, it'll fester and end up poisoning everything – she knows, because... well, she's the same way.

After a moment, she dips her head in a short nod. ]

And when you're thinking that over and over, it's easy to... get to the point where you think it might be easier to just ruin it now rather than waiting any longer. If it's inevitable that you're going to end up disappointing people, you might as well do it now and get it over with. That sort of thing.

[ She nods again and her expression is complicated in a way that makes it clear – she gets it. ]

But– just because it says that doesn't mean you have to listen to it. I know it's easier said than done, but I can't think of a reason we'd turn out backs on you.

[To be seen and understood for his transgressions is still peculiar, having been unused to it. Why, Ryoko has described the very thing that ruined his relationship with Eve, which was Rex himself, unfortunately. However, since is he's aware of it now, he understands that happiness is within reach, in part because he's seen so many friends rise from the dead. Still, that warm feeling, that notion that he will be held instead of thrown into another fire all on his own, it means the world to him-]

[...And yet, on the outside, he folds his needlessly dense arms over his chest before wrinkling his nose.]

Ew.

[nmc0204]

Never mind, I take it all back. See if I ever try and help you through an emotional crisis ever again.

[ ... he's heard that flat, deadpan tone from her enough times by now that she's obviously kidding. ]

It's not a crisis...! Soooo not a crisis, and I've been in fuckloads of those.

[It is, in fact, the emotional kind. He's ruling out his emotions for the umpteenth time. Classic Rex.]

Ugh, screw it. Enough about me and my dumb ass.

[at least he's admitting it this time-]

What's all this talk about you thinkin' of goin' to medical school? Do you know just how long that shit takes?!

crunches it like a potato chip

[nmc0204]

[ AT LEAST HE'S ADMITTING IT... ]

Nothing's decided yet. But I'm getting to a point where I need to make some choices about what I'm going to pursue studying after high school, so I may as well start thinking about it.

[ you'll notice that she doesn't mention where she'll be studying, because she's just accepted that she will be attending whatever college Parker and the other girls go to. why even fight it. ]

There's lots of other things I could do that would be easier, of course. But... I'd like to try and do something I'd like to do. If I can.
