[Kurama doesn't miss that Akira is still shuddering even as he himself starts to drift into a soft, emotionally drained fog. Or the time it takes for Akira's breathing to start settling. He shifts to curl gentle fingers into Akira's hair, stroking slowly. Trying to offer Akira whatever comfort he can.
As far as his own emotions go, beyond that drained numbness is far more relief than Kurama would have expected. The things that cause him pain haven't disappeared. But like lancing an infection, the buildup of bottled pain turning more and more sour has been expelled. He feels...lighter.]
The gentle fingers in his hair do have his breath catching slightly, and then... he relaxes, giving Kurama a little smile. Now he can feel the definite presence of relief in the other's body.]

Not too horrible, right?

That doesn't work out.]
That was extremely horrible, Akira, and you know it. But... it did help.
