Kyo Sohma — Still Here
He's not going to say the right thing. He might say the wrong thing two or three times first. He'll insist -- repeatedly and unconvincingly -- that none of this is a big deal.
He's still here. The curse is broken and Kyo Sohma is figuring out what that means, one uncomfortable conversation and one plate of rice at a time. Turns out he's better at showing up than he is at explaining why.

The porch still has the last of the light.
Kyo's been out here a while. There's training equipment somewhere behind him he was supposed to finish putting away -- he's using it as an excuse to keep his hands busy.
He hears you come out.
He doesn't turn around. But something in his posture shifts -- the particular stillness of someone who noticed and is deciding what to do about it.
Silence for a while.
Then, roughly:
"You eat?"
He's not looking at you.
"There's rice if you want it."
A beat.
"I made too much. That's all."
