[ Of all the reactions Mitsuru expected that wasn't quite it. What on earth was that and what is he so afraid of? Nothing about what she had just seen seems to outwardly suggest there is anything to fear here, not when it's Vash- someone she considers a friend and- what exactly is he hiding?

When the redhead finally speaks again her voice is... calm? ]

It's alright.

This is just... another side effect of these glitches that have been happening, isn't it?

[ There is a look in those brown eyes of hers, a meaningful one directed at him if he dares look up at her. A look that says she's putting two and two together here and is processing far more than she is letting on and she's not afraid to let him know it with her eyes. But no matter how curious she is, no matter how much they both know that second sentence isn't true, she's not about to confront him about this in public. No when she has to wonder what has caused this fear, the drive to cover up exactly what is going with him.

She's also, conveniently, offering him an out for anybody else that might have seen this and that pointed gaze at him says just as much. Clearly, whatever is going on with him is something he's in no hurry to let others know about and she's not about to out him. ]

Isn't that right?

[ Her tone is clear, confident, like it usually is. Even when there is a double meaning behind it. A voice of reassurance for anyone else listening and for him- her friend. Even if he won't look at her. ]
