[As he listens, the first thing Ren wants to ask is "why?" But more specifically, "why did they want to fuse to dimensions together?" Creating ways to go between them, he can see, but merging them together seems messy and pointless and disruptive for everyone involved. He can only imagine the chaos if someone tried that with Earth and Cray. But that seems like a question better saved for the end.
It isn't all that surprising that they would have sought to gain the power of their enemies, or that Shun was the only one of the three people in that picture to use it. Yuto, at least, had never struck him as someone who would be comfortable with that kind of tactic. That quality was one reason Ren liked him so much, honestly.
But that's not to say that he likes Shun less after hearing what he was willing to do. Maybe if he had done it because he'd genuinely thought it was fun and still did...but that's obviously not the case. And that was a pretty noble cause. Although he does think it's a miracle he hasn't scared Shun off yet, if that was what his enemies were like...
And then he gets to Ruri.
Admittedly, his first thought is to wonder if the mole had been killed or sealed into a card, because he sure as hell wouldn't blame Shun if he'd done either. The second is wondering how poorly Shun might react if he scooted over and grabbed his hand. He'll admit, he's not usually the most touchy person and neither is Shun, but if there's any time Shun could probably use it...]
It's really awful, isn't it? Feeling like that. [Maybe if he scoots over a little under the pretense of sliding the phone back along the table...
But once he settles again, he keeps his hands in his lap. For now.]
Did you find out what you needed to know?
["Did you get her back?" is what he really want to know, but he's not sure he should ask that, just in case he didn't.]
