[He snaps, bristling when she starts hurling shit around. Still… It was unbelievable enough that one force could destroy Heartland after Astral and Yuma used the Numeron code (honestly, he hadn't quite started to believe it in earnest). To think that there's another, and one that he has no idea about…]
I just asked a question! Calm down already - you're talking about a massacre and you don't even know what happened or have any proof!
[Rio takes a moment to breathe and let herself settle, then loosens her posture, falling helplessly back onto the couch as she realizes that was a little uncalled for. She leans forward in the aftermath to cradle her head in her hands.]
I don't want to take the chance that it's real. We finally had everything work out... I just... What if we lose that again, at someone else's cruel whim?
[Said in a deadpan sort of tone, a wry acknowledgment of all that's happened to get to this point. Ryouga may have suffered the aftermath, but she was the one who actually died to make it happen each time. Another repeat of the cycle is the last thing she wants to occur.]
Maybe I am overreacting a little, and I'm sorry for taking it out on you there. But if there's any possibility this is for real, and something that will come to pass in the near future, I need to do something about it.
[He continues to frown down at her for awhile. She's so freaked out, and he guesses maybe he can get it, but… He plops down on the couch next to her and sets a hand on her head.]
I'm wont let you get hurt like that again, Rio. That's not much to go on, but I'll find out what's going on, alright?
[And if it's just a situation where Vector's screwing around again, he'll be more than happy to take care of that.]

[Ryouga sighs, scowling at the wall before approaching the couch with careful steps.]
Look, it's not like I don't get it, I think, but you don't have enough information to freak out.
