SOF watched the scene of torture rather passively.  The disconnect between reality and fiction dancing in his mind. What he was seeing seemed very real, but yet he could only perceive it as a fictitious event. It wasn't happening, but it was. The conflicting sensation was almost forcing his mind not to focus on in, so his eyes began to glaze and his vision blurred. Then Touka began to speak, but he still remained silent through it. His thoughts were slow but methodical. Was he just being paranoid? He did have some massive trust issues, but there were some obvious things that he just couldn't get past. The first was the suspicious timing of all of this, but that could be passed off as mere coincidence. The second and probably the biggest problem was her intentions, or rather lack there of. She would take them to the overseer but for what reason exactly, and why is she intending on doing so? On that note would not going to see Junichiro be a good idea? He shook his head to clear his thoughts and turned to Eggy and Rain.<br/><br/>"I would rather not make rash decisions without consulting you." he said warmly "As I think that you are the smartest out of all of us." He smiled and threw his head back sighing. "Besides... I don't really feel confident in shouldering the responsibility of being a leader." He laughed nervously emphasizing that point. "But if you must know, i'd like to not take Touka up on her offer, I'm just gonna leave it at that, because its just a feeling no real rationale behind it." While not entirely true, he just knew his reasons where founded in nothing but assumption and distrust.<br/><br/>Sinon glanced at him a bit worriedly as his expression was a bit tight. SOF tried to continue to smile as he turned to Touka "Unless Eggy and rain or Blade have a compelling argument i'm turning you down." He then leaned against a tree waiting for the others to respond. Sinon leaned against the same tree but on the side of SOF so that they were nowhere near touching but close enough to hear whispers. She seemed a bit serious "Torture seems like such a foreign word..."<br/><br/>"Its not something that should be seen." SOF said a bit sadly<br/><br/>Sinon shook her head "It didnt feel real... but it should have affected me in some way."<br/><br/>SOF suddenly understood "You arent heartless just because you can't feel for him. Its something that our minds cant even comprehend."<br/><br/>She nodded "Thanks... and uh if the group happens to split... i'm always on your side."<br/><br/>SOf smiled widely "Thanks right back at you."
