[ Ryder releases a breath he hadn't realized he was holding in when Drack concedes and leaves the room. It's then when, against his better judgment, he pulls off his helmet. Just in time for Reyes to say that it was good to see him, and for Ryder to feel a big ol stab in his goddamn heart.
For a moment, he glances downward, holding the helmet against his hip. But he quickly sucks it up to meet Reyes' gaze. He can't bring himself to look angry because that moment has passed. His gaze is soft, sad...regretful. ]
Too bad it was like this. [ Which...seems to imply that Ryder feels the same way, oops. ] For what it's worth I'm...sorry I shot you.
[ Despite the awkward delivery, it's so very genuine. ]
