[As soon as Shun starts talking and it's clear that he's not going to try to brush it off anymore or get angry with them, Ren lets out a long sigh of relief and finally heads over to sit next to him. Of course, he doesn't expect this will be the end of it since shun's spent so long living that way, but it's probably progress.]

For what it's worth, I'm sorry I didn't say anything about it earlier either. maybe we could have fixed this days ago.

Hmm, I was thinking of just sitting on him until he fell asleep, but I guess I could help keep watch too. Or we could even stay somewhere in the Near Shore for the night.
