[ What's the more painful option: Ryouma seeing Izō crying and saying something worse than he's already said in a fit or anger or him simply walking away without even looking back nor even acknowledging Izō? Ryouma does the latter, not even sparing another glance for him.
The anger that surges through him is completely unnatural and he needs to just get away from here before everything gets worse. Away from the battle, away from the castle, away from everything. Nowhere is safe, that much is true, but so long as he can make it in one piece back to the detective agency, at least he'll be alone.
Alone is better than the risk of hurting anyone else. He should be alone until he can figure out what's wrong and until this passes.
