[Katsuki lets that go without explanation, reaching up and wiping a thumb across the cut on his temple. That stings. He brings the bloodied digit to his mouth and licks it. Gross, right? Still dealing with that damn vampire shit. Trying to control the harsh breathing isn't easy, but his battered chest appreciates the attempt.
Of course this isn't going to make whatever Yuji's dealing with leave. It's a panacea, makes it feel better for a bit before everything comes back. But what can he do asides from help? Beating Yuji down might help him feel as if some payment's been reached, but can atonement come from beating yourself up?
There's a soft thump as Katsuki sinks down cross legged beside Yuji, reaching out to take his friend's hand. One hand, held in his grip, thumb running over reddened knuckles.]
Yuji. [How hard, impossible even, to forgive yourself... even for things that weren't your fault.]
