Something...about that makes Ven almost want to laugh. He doesn't, but it doesn't stop the mirth from appearing in his eyes, the way the wind picks up around them playfully. Considering all that Ventus has done that has led up to this point? Perhaps it should be the other way around, but he doesn't say it.
They can go back and forth on this all night, and he knows there will be no clear winner in the end.
Right now, it's simply comforting to have Riku like this, foreheads pressed close together. Ven has always been good when it comes to physical contact, the slight comfort it brings of having someone close. He's not overly affectionate like Sora is, not the kind of person who would tackle people into a hug out of sheer joy or relief, but his gestures are subtle - blunt in a way. He's the perfect balance of Sora and Roxas, after all.
For Ven to be told he forgives easily? Maybe it's true, but he's also an embodiment of pure light whereas his Darkness is still missing, still cut from him even though he was sure that they had united in a way.
So, he laughs softly - not boisterous and the kind of laugh that sounds more like wind chimes.]
You say that, but I see no reason not to forgive you either. [Another wave of warmth sent to Riku, the way his fingers idly stroke through his hair in an affectionate manner.] Don't beat yourself up too much.
