[ he can have a ping that's in the observation lounge with a to-go cup of tea on the table in front of him. he's just patching up an old sweater, but glances up when luke arrives, giving a nod. ]
[He will send a little sticker!!! I am too lazy to go get it though
But he arrives!! And he greets him with a little wave, smiling.]
Hey. How are you feeling? [HE... did not see you come back from CYOA because he came back from his own CYOA and was hella traumatized about it,, HOWEVER he saw the sleepover and probably heard Gregor fussing so]
[ cherishes this sticker with his very life. just gives him a wave back with a hand that is. well it's healed! there are just some acid burn scars on it now, but he looks to be tryna cruise right along anyways. ]
This ship is an unending nightmare. Baseline, perhaps. I'll take being alive.
[ i have died too many times you cannot hurt me in a way that matters his body says. he looks okay though, no real pain for the moment! also don't think he missed that. ]
Maybe take an hour in the healing pod, put some supplies away - Now. How are you, Luke.
[ as if he would just let him get away with that. ]
[Once they're... off the ship? Maybe headed home? Luke is far more of a realist than an optimist, but he's been--trying more, lately. And the thought of getting everyone home safely is what's keeping him focused, more than anything else.
BUT FINE fine, he'll answer.]
...Alright, I think. I can still feel it, but it's not as bad as it was. It's still a little hard to believe we're back, but-- [He flexes his fingers, looking down at his hands.] It seems like it really did work.
I suppose meet my fate. Die however many times it takes... get replaced however many times I must... that's the way of where I am from.
[ humming as he watches that hand flex carefully. his eye flick a little unnaturally over it, as if following something with his gaze along his arm. ]
Looks alright for now... so I will let it slide. You all came back so quickly, I'm glad it looks like everything's settled in. [ your bodies your rystals ] The process is unlike anything I've ever seen before.

Okay they can talk about the revival madness and stuff in a second but also he looks so fuckin tired--]
How come so many of you are used to dying a lot? [WHY IS THIS A TREND ACROSS WORLDS]

No clue. Coincidence, perhaps. Plenty of unfortunate places out there it seems...

[SIGH!!! But. What can he do about it. He's a secret agent but he's also just some guy in comparison to half of the people on this ship.
As far as the revivals go, though--]
You wouldn't happen to have the research papers about all this on hand, would you? I'd like to read over them properly.
