Riyo may or may not have been slowly reverting to her shut-in tendencies as of late, not particularly because of the old convoluted reasons, but it felt more and more like her friends had been too busy. Understandable, for she herself had lived plenty of those days, and it wasn't like she didn't have a hoard of cats to keep her company.
Though, all the reasoning in the world couldn't completely drown out the small twinges of loneliness from time to time.
It was a passing thought as she hauled bags of groceries up the dorm room stairs in the new little skirt she'd started getting used to. There weren't that many really, it was just cumbersome hauling them through hallways and trying not to bump into other students. "Excuse me." She mumbled in passing to someone else as she reached the top of the stairs and, finally, her door.
"Key... Where'd I put that key..." She mumbled, sifting through her purse awkwardly while hanging onto the groceries. She could just sit them down, but where was the challenge in that?

Riyo had fully realized she was sharing the hallway with someone else, but usually it was a passing breeze and they were gone.
Voices rarely followed.
The ghoul flinched as she felt the bags move, head snapping to look at the possible assailant. Her leg lifted, ready for the kick, but as her mind processed the image, she was... Dumbstruck, to put it lightly.
Riyo's eyes widened, leg returning to the solid ground as something obviously didn't add up. 1. It was Titus. She really couldn't remember the last time she'd seen him, and 2. Excuse me? what the ******** did he just say?
She was suspicious.
"You may have been gone for awhile, but that's not enough time for me to grow senile." She tried to yank the bags back. "I just spent my last seeds on these groceries. You're not going to chuck them down the stairs for fun or some bullshit like that."

"My a**." She scoffed in passing as she entered her room and shut the door, marching into the kitchen with a long, drawn out sigh as she prepared to sort her groceries. She had, fortunately or unfortunately, missed the look of determination on his face as he went about hurting himself.
The loud 'thud' on the wall was enough to catch her attention, however.
"What was..." After throwing the milk in the fridge, she ran back out just in time to see Titus's body ragdoll down the stairs.
Holy s**t.
It was a trainwreck and she couldn't force herself to look away. Yes, there was a part of her that felt fairly satisfied at seeing and hearing his pain, but the rest was just ******** bewildered.
The ghoul rushed down the stairs and (attempted) to somehow get him back on his feet. "What the ******** is wrong with you?" She grabbed his hands and tried to pull him up. "I'm suddenly relieved I didn't think of something more clever to say... Like telling you to eat glass. Are you sick? Do you have some rare strain of virus? Maybe witchcraft?" Well, she was getting warmer at least. "Is it contagious?" Maybe she shouldn't be touching him after all. In fact, now was a good time to yank her hands away.

Riyo scratched her head, her lips forming a thin line as she watched him. She had considered asking if he'd jump off a bridge at her request but, his comment towards chewing glass was enough of an answer.
"Yeah, but..." This was a new one on her. People rarely did what she told them anymore, and while yes, she had been a little upset at seeing him at first, maybe the whole 'beat the s**t out of yourself' thing had been a little much.
Not that she had known something like that would happen! "Groceries? OH." Yeah the groceries had kind of taken a backseat to this mess. "That can wait. Clean yourself up, you look like hell." The feline handed him a handkerchief from her purse. "Alright, lets see." Riyo carefully considered the scenario of what was said and what had happened. Not sick, though he could be lying. Witchcraft was still an option too, but so far he seemed more than willing to do... Anything she said, and accept whatever was dished out to him.
"So... I could ask you to do anything... And you'd just do it? No second thoughts?" Her head tilted to the side as she interrogated him.
