[ Only half-listening to what the others are discussing, he struggles with the impulses to pursue, and rend, and tear. He's never felt anything like this, or at least not that he remembers, the anger and hate a raging fire burning in his heart.
The old man's touch is stabilizing, though, and after a long moment, he finally regains enough of himself to listen to what's being said properly. He catches the tail end of the commentary on Riku's heart but doesn't truly react until the mention of actual "training".
His head lifts, and he looks at both of them, his eye going wide. It shocks the fight out of him (at least somewhat), and by the time Xemnas finishes giving the order, the tension has bled out of him completely.
A few days off?
He almost looks like he wants to protest, but of course, he doesn't. Instead, he takes a breath, eye closed, and nods his assent. He's calmer now, finally, the darkness no longer threatening to boil over, and as much as he dislikes leaving Xemnas alone to handle things here, some things are far more important. ]
