[as Yu is looking Yosuke over, Yosuke is doing the same to his ""person"". when he considers that obviously the both of them are mostly okay, he looks a bit relieved.]

Yeah, it's crazy. They really need to bring on more transportation here if they're gonna be like that. And yeah, I'm fine. You?

[NOT THE ""PERSON"" IN QUOTES DFSHGKJSD]

[Yosuke seems like he's adjusting pretty well from...whatever that was, and honestly, the relief Yu feels about that sets his mind at ease about his own situation, too. Just knowing they didn't both come out of it all addled...

He nods at the question.]

More or less. [It's not a lie -- technically, he's totally unharmed. Everything else, he can deal with later.] We might have our work cut out for us trying to find the dojo, though. You haven't seen it, have you?

[yeah, Elise is giving Yosuke a break for a bit. the poor dude's been through Some Shit lately.

he considers Yu's question... and then shakes his head.]

I think I would've seen it. [maybe.] But then again, I was more invested in finding you.

[because he's gay AF and Yu is his top priority. always.]

[... Of course he was.

Not that Yu was any different.]

I missed it, too, [he admits easily, slipping a hand into his pocket.]

But, now you found me. [He nudges Yosuke's shoulder lightly.] So next, we should find home.

[he nudges Yu's shoulder back, and then nods.]

Yeah. If either one of us missed it, then we suck.

[eloquence at his finest...

he's going to let them walk for a few moments before starting:]

So...

[The quiet is helpful, in this case -- it gives Yu a second to focus, to try to figure out where to start. How to say it all. How to sort everything out in his head... His eyes slide in Yosuke's direction as the other boy speaks up.]

My memories came back wrong. I remember things that happened...but also things I don't think really did.

[It's not unreasonable to think he means the alternate memories they all just experienced, so he clarifies:] Things from home. People dying who didn't actually die, leaving Inaba without confronting Izanami...

[A grimace.] That...probably sounds pretty crazy, I know.

[Yosuke's frown deepens as Yu starts to speak. it would sound really crazy, and he'd probably be more concerned if his... ???? person was speaking like this.

but--]

Yeah well, there's a lot of crazy shit that happens here. Maybe I can help you sort out your memories, or something. Or... they'll realign themselves on their own.

[maybe????]

Not everything's permanent here, either.

You've already helped.

[He admits that with ease, but it's not a lie. Just by confirming a few things...Yosuke has helped set his mind at ease. Maybe he needed to hear some of that optimism, too. It certainly has his shoulders relaxing a bit, just thinking about it.]

I hope you're right. Right now...even things that didn't happen feel so real that it's hard to tell.

Oh.

[he hadn't exactly realized it... but there's a bit of a relieved grin at the words. he's glad he was able to help with something, at least.]

Maybe you need to sleep it off? C'mon, let's go get some rest. 'Kay?

[A faint smile works its way through the concern he's feeling, the trepidation, the confusion. It's uncanny, the way Yosuke can just be like that without even knowing he does it.]

Hm, [he feels himself relaxing a bit as he says it.] Maybe you're right. Hopefully we won't have to map the whole city to do it.

[But even if they did, he feels more confident knowing they'd be doing it together.]
