[ Yu knows what's coming before Hiro seems to. It's why, gently, he sets aside the food he'd brought. It had been sitting between them, and would have gotten in the way.
When Hiro starts to cry, Yu is ready for him. One arm is circling around the younger teen's shoulders, the other going round his waist. And just like that, he's carefully pulling Hiro against his chest, propping his chin on Hiro's head. He had a feeling this was coming. All that wound up energy, the topic at hand, the buzzing terrible readiness... this must have been weighing on Hiro for some time. And more than anything, wanting to do it alone... to do something as terrifying as attempt to raise the dead, and conduct all the experiments on himself, all to protect the people he loves...
Yu will admit Hiro is incredibly brave. But he's also extremely foolish. And he hugs his friend tightly, thinking all these things as he lets the boy in his arms cry himself out. ]
