[Ren tenses up in surprise at the sudden hug--Shun is hugging him???---but only for a moment. Then he smiles and wraps his arms around Shun as well as he leans against him, definitely grateful for the support. Even though...he can't be the one who needs it most here...]
Aren't you the one who really needs this...
[His smile fades away again as he leans his head against Shun's shoulder. Shun undoubtedly needed this more than he did, but he's be lying if he said he didn't need it at all. The shock of what Shun told him hasn't quite worn off yet. He didn't even know Johan that well but...it's kind of like hearing Christopher Lo had died. He'd only spoken to Chris a couple times too, but he was still important. They're alike, in a way. They're connected. And Johan had been important that way too.
It's true that they can't really hide anything from each other anymore, and Ren doesn't really want to. He's also pretty terrible at trying to express his feelings with words, nor does he particularly like trying (which was why he'd started letting Leon do it for him), so Shun will just have to glean what he can from Ren standing there silently for a while. Eventually, he does think of something he can say and he tightens his hug a bit.]

I'm sorry you had to see something like that.
