[Unfortunately that was not exactly the best thing to say to an already anxious and emotional Doppo, because he tensed up even more, hissing in pain as he pulled his injured hand suddenly away from Jakurai's grip.]
No,no-I-I'm sorry! Please don't be mad at me, I'm really sorry. I'm just a fucking failure and he hates me for good reason and I can't give you his number because then he'll be mad at me and I'm sorry, please don't hurt me....
[He was curling in on himself now, doing a good impression of a human hedgehog that was almost beginning to hyperventilate.]
[Sensei's calm and sensitive voice reached through towards him, trying to uncurl him from the ball he'd scrunched up in. Jakurai's whole demeanor had calmed down and while Rei was still a huge threat that kept popping up in his mind-you're keeping this to yourself-God, this was Sensei, wasn't it? If he couldn't feel reassured by him then what could he do?
He'd been worried? He wouldn't be able to forgive himself? Would Jakurai really feel like that about someone like him?
Doppo could feel the tears starting to leak out of his eyes in the perfect completion of the pathetic image, but well...he didn't rightly fucking care.]
I....he told me to keep it to myself. His number is on my phone, though....
[He extended his hand again tentatively, hoping that Jakurai just doesn't remark on any of it.]
[Sensei is a lot more than Doppo ever bargained for, that is for sure. He doesn't take his people being threatened lightly. Not does he want there to be any strange threats surrounding anyone that he cares for.
Jakurai cares a lot about Doppo, so clearly this is why he is so upset.]
I will be contacting him then, right after I finish fixing this.
[His wolf familiar appears behind him, eyes dimly glowing as Jakurai takes the broken thumb, focusing his energy on the reformation of straight aligned bones. He tries his hardest NOT to jerk and tug if he doesn't have to.]
[Having friends, close friends that cared about his wellbeing was more than he could handle sometimes. He just wasn't used to it and didn't know at all how to react. Especially someone who could get as intense as Jakurai.
He was holding his breath as the healing magic worked, because even with Jakurai's skill, the bone still needed to snap back into place. He let out a pained cry when that happened, though the healing magic soothed the worst of the hurt after it realigned. He could feel his own familiar emerging out of the shadows as if it were worried, but he didn't want to deal with that.]
He-he told me to keep it to myself....
[He was getting the couch dirty. Really, he should've just died and saved everyone the trouble.]

Should you fall into danger I would never forgive myself. Should something happen to you I would never forgive myself.
I will only speak with him, nothing more.
[ He can tell he’s a little too forceful right now, which is why his voice has taken on a softer edge. More warm, and comforting.
Jakurai can’t solve all of his problems with underhanded means and he knows it.]
