[But instead of explaining any more than that, he just closes his eyes and focuses. If Mika's paying attention to magical pings, he can probably feel the cast go off as he performs a spell to wash away the pain that lingers in his body even now, built up from years of sacrifice.
At the very least, he can probably hear the way muscles relax, tension leaking out as the pain fades. Nothing so drastic as to be visible to the ordinary viewer, but Mika's senses are far greater than that.]
( Mika is quiet, and he listens. He lets the sounds linger in the air, near invisible, for a few moments longer, even as the magic fades, before he speaks. )
... Better. ( Better than before, arguably. ) Else I would've bound you to your bed.
( Joke? (Real.) )
... I won't make you tell me things. ( He did say he's not fixated on secrets (—So long as they don't make him worried about the future). ) But don't make me bug you, either.
( In less brusque words - don't forget to look out for yourself regularly... That's a lot of baggage, and the Akira thing clearly didn't help. )
( Mika, as always, is skeptical when it comes to Ahito's health. But he's finally heading for the window, anyway, and the pane pushes open with magic. )
Don't get caught by another ghost again.
( Anyway I thought about it and nvm Mika definitely has ethical concerns about eating rocks, but it's Ahito's problem now - he glances at the bag, then to Ahito, like he intends to add something, but decides against it. He's said his piece and doesn't want to be hit with a remark about caring again, so. )

( Maybe it would've been better if Mika got scared off the night before because, unfortunately, him fussing is Annoying. )

[Dryly. He's the one who lives like this, every single day.]
Just didn't get to that part of my morning routine right away, that's all.

Honestly there's a nonzero chance he dies here, in which case he'd expect his own mage stone to be used for much the same.]
I'll try not to.
Later, Mika.
