[Let's be real here, Ryuji is not covert at all about his actions, but he did see Akechi one night as they were heading in very opposing directions- Ryuji, for a late night snack, and Akechi for a late night cup of joe. One headed to the cafe, one headed to the Dojo, but in the end, hunger beat out curiosity and he just filed that away for later.
But as he lay there, eating his 1d20 donut of possible misery (and winding up with a sweet sausage bun, hell yeah), he started to slowly connect dots in his head. Typical low intellect, high wisdom type of person, he could figure out he was heading to the Dojo, and it wasn't likely he was going there in the middle of the night to train. So, it was probably related to the rooms that showed you a place from home you wanted to visit.
And that really piqued his interest. What could be in there that Akechi viewed as safe, welcoming, and a slice of a time better than this? Ryuji ends up testing the theory out. Roughly around the same time, aside from maybe 15 or so minutes, he sneaks out to check out the Dojo and see if the room is on lock down. Bingo. He leaves before Akechi gets out. Rinse, repeat a few times, until he decides...
You know what? Fuck it. He'll just wait for him to come out. Ryuji stands up against the wall, arms crossed, and out comes his fellow thief. The notes of coffee in the air are hard to miss, and that... that makes him raise an eyebrow.]
night rain because in this house we hurt
