It's amazing how accurate that strange feeling is, because that's exactly what's happening.
Ryoji had been looking for Seito ever since he spoke to Minato. He knew just from the way his friend had spoken of him that he was dangerous. He was a killer. He was manipulative. He needed to be stopped...
Maybe in the past, Ryoji would have waited. Seito hadn't hurt anyone in a while, and Ryoji didn't have the whole story. He couldn't judge humans for the choices they made. He had no right to. He could hold back until one of his friends was seriously threatened... but after everything that had happened, after Ryoji had seen so many people that he cared about dying over and over for the most trivial reasons... well, he wasn't going to avoid conflict any longer.
For now, however, he was just going to talk to him. Make sure that Seito understood that he had someone watching him now, someone prepared to strike if he suspected any harm was about to come to Minato or Minako. He reaches out and gently takes hold of Seito's shoulder.

"Excuse me. Seito Souzen, right?
