[Hm...it's tempting to ask Komasan if he would prefer to just pretend that he didn't say anything, but...he doesn't think that would be a good idea either. It would make things awkward, and what if he said something else? Clearly, it's another unusual Friday, and Komasan has been affected by it.

He keeps on petting, trying to think of what to say that might help him feel better.]

What are you scared of? You can talk to me about it. ...if you think it might help you feel better.

If not...you don't have to say anything. It's okay.

[He has a feeling that Komasan can't help but be honest right now, though.]
