[ The too crowded thing he can understand even relate to wanting to get away. While Sora shines in a crowd of ten, twenty, even thirty or more people, Riku... doesn't and almost feels annoyed or frustrated with being around too many people. Ever the one to prefer more intimate and close-knit relationships and smaller groups, Riku doesn't have a problem with being on his own out here like this and it's something that he and Ven can seem to understand about each other without needing words for it.
The notion to stop feeling guilty, however, has him glance down to Ven out of the corner of his eye.
He's not all that surprised that he would say such a thing, let alone pick up on what he might be feeling... they're soulmates after all. But to hear Ven say it, to know that it's clearly on his mind and possibly even weighing him down some... that only has Riku feel more guilt and he stands there in silence as he looks off to the sky. ]
Stop coming outside without a jacket on.
[ He mutters the words a little lightly though still clearly means them and as he does, he can feel his tattoo on the inside of his wrist gently pulse, as if happy that he and Ven are talking like this, with one another, around one another and not attempting to pull away or pretend that there's nothing here.
But... it still doesn't have Riku doing anything, making any sort of move, throwing any sort of feelings for Sora that he has away. He... can't. ]
