[Yusuke is silent as he watches Steve lay into Blake. He doesn't make another attempt to get her attention or to soothe her; it's clear to him that she's had it, and sometimes, when things around you are so bad that all you wanna do is get angry, the best thing to do is to just get angry. He sure as hell isn't in any position to discourage her from that.
That said, he isn't prepared for how weird reading what she has to say makes him feel. "You won't let anybody help you and you think it makes you strong but it doesn't! It makes you scared!"...
... isn't that what he does, when shit sucks and the thought of talking to his friends about what's going on with him is somehow more unbearable than the thought of putting himself in a position where he might seem vulnerable to them? Just pulls away and doesn't talk to them and refuses to let them help him? He'd always thought of it as not burdening them with his problems and trying to seem strong for them, but...
...
He doesn't know. He doesn't have time to think about it, either, because all of the sudden, Blake's glaring down at Steve and telling her to shut up, and that pisses him off. Big time. Curling his lip, Yusuke leans forward and snarls back at him.]
HEY. Don't tell her to shut up, old man! She's only getting pissed off at you 'cause she's worried about you!
[And so is he, just a little bit. He isn't gonna say that out loud.]
