The look Vane gave him was disapproving, as though he knew Suzaku had no intention of allowing anyone to see his tears. "I'll manage." He replied in even tones as he headed towards the cliff and began to search for the small chain of silver he'd seen drop away from Suzaku when the entire incident began.
As he bent slightly to get a better look, his hand had to go out against the rock when his vision swam, making him close his eyes and grit his teeth in irritation. There wasn't pain, no, but he could feel a pulse in the back of his mind and the slight pangs of nausea that came with it.
Once it passed, he opened his eyes again and allowed himself a slow, shallow breath. Yes, he'd manage. He always had, after all.
Suzaku went to search as well, glad that Vane had dropped the subject of him crying. He saw Vane stumble and close his eyes and frowned. "Sit down, Wait here. I will search and if I don't find it we can just continue..."
Settling against the wall, Vane took a deeper breath this time and watched Suzaku continue the search. "It's your choice." He answered quietly, even as he reached up and gently touched his head, wincing when his fingers found the spot that was most likely bruised. Not because it hurt but because he could feel the blood behind his eyes begin to pound again.
"But I think it'd be better if we found it. For your comfort, if nothing else."
Suzaku shook his head, now that the immediate shock and sadness was over he had pushed the grief to one side, locked it in the store room in his head with all the other things he wasn't thinking about.
"It doesn't matter, rest for a moment and then we will continue."
