[Sometimes you just reek of fish and need an excuse to go be angry away from all the adults anyway!!
Her hair is still a frizzy mess from how it dried overnight, so it's not hard to spot her tucked in a part of the docks that she had hoped would be hard to spot, her face shoved against her arms with her knees to her chest.
When she hears her name, her head snaps up with alarm, her eyes red.]
Ah... J-Jeanne-san...
[She frantically tries to wipe at her face, as though she's embarrased to have been caught. Tears, what tears, she's fine.]
Is Reeces-kun okay? I haven't seen him since we woke up...
Now that Jeanne is close enough, she'll step right into that wave of hurt, or anger and sorrow and indignation, forcing her expression into something almost comically torn as she tries to hide how surprised she is at the blunt acknowledgement.
She forces a smile. Her determination is sincere, but in the moment, it simply masks everything else, like a sweep of dirt under a rug.]
I'll... be okay, Jeanne-san. Please don't worry about me.
I didn't want everyone to see me looking down, so I just need a little time to be better for them, okay?
[ There is some understanding and some sympathy, but after feeling all that, there really is no way that Hikaru can deflect. Even if it wasn't emotionshare, it is blatantly and painfully obvious how much of an emotional bleeding heart Hikaru is. ]
It's all right to take some time for yourself, but you do know that the people who care for you won't mind seeing you upset, don't you?

Yes, he's fine, but... you aren't.
[ She isn't going to beat around the bush. Hikaru will feel her concern when she walks closer. ]
