[And he wasn't good at that. Empathizing in such a way. Empathy in general was hard for him to identify when he did have bouts of it.

Instead he laid down on his back on the couch, bringing Yusuke up to lay against his chest rather than his lap. It made for easier and more comfortable cuddling okay.
And that was all Takame could offer. It was something. He would listen.]
