[Ryou says it plainly. He can tell the Ring-Spirit's trying to handle him gently. There's absolutely no need for it--not anymore.
Maybe there'd never been a need, and Ryou had tried to change the Ring-Spirit too much, to make him tolerable.
No more. Never again.]
Atem and I aren't...I don't think we're together anymore? H-haha...I think we're done. He can't...be around me. He did some fucked up things to help me, and--and I'm not...
[Ryou swallows hard, struggling to continue. After a moment, he manages.]
I'm cursed to suffer, and make others suffer with me. He gave up a lot. For me. And...n-now, he's tired of it. He got hurt, and hurt others, and I couldn't even use my powers in Felfri so...y'know.
He's done with me.
But you're okay. You always handled me. So...it'll be fine. When you're ready...we can go.
