[SWEET IO LOOKS LIKE HE IS READY TO KEEL OVER MY GOD. A GAUNT MAN... Dahut reaches out to pat their knee.]
I'm really glad to see you, too! You look like you're about to join us. [lol dead jokes.] I hope that you still wake up rested even when we come to pester you in your dreams like this... Tell me if you aren't, okay? We can bother you a little less! It's important to keep your body as strong as possible in situations like this, so make sure you're drinking lots of water and eating good food, too.
[ knee: patted dahut: in my dreams i am forced to acknowledge that i will wake up sad. ]
You are fussing, little... erdem. Take it easy.
[ a huff as they reach out and pap pap the little hand on their knee. these knees are real even instead of one being metal and one being Flesh. anything can happen in dreams. they pause a bit. ]
I only apologize that I seldom have nicer dreams... How are you...?
[NOT LIKE THIS. At the unfamiliar word, Dahut makes a bit of a curious noise, his head cocking to the side like a fuckin parakeet. But then he's just smiling again, turning his lil paw over to catch their hand after the paps.]
I missed fussing over the rest of you! Though I do have my hands pretty full here... [Between all these fucking scientists that can't take care of themselves or remember to eat and also Vash.]
I don't mind it here, anyway! I just feel a little bit bad about intruding, but as long as it's fine... Ah - I'm fine, though! As fine as can be expected. There's a lot going on! [THERE ARE SO MANY RATS.] What about you? You look like you could use a ten year nap.
they are holding hands now. io's hand is pretty big by comparison, rough-looking. there are thick cuts at their fingertips, knuckles, all over actually. some from larger-looking implements, some far thinner. paw to paw communication. ]
I can only imagine. If you are with... the others then I assume they are a handful. Please. [ softer ] Take care of Viktor and Eunhyuk, if this place is as strange as Luke has made it sound.
[PAW TO PAW COMMUNICATION!!! He looks down at Io's paw, curious in the muted way of someone whose focus is mainly elsewhere. He's just making lil notes in the excel spreadsheet in his brain.]
They're definitely a handful! [SAID WITH HAMMY WEARINESS but then he gives this poor fool a sweet, sympathetic lil smile and pats their hand again.]
I'll do my very best, I promise. I'm making sure everyone eats and drinks enough water, and reminding them to sleep! That's about the best that I can do for now.
[ dahut's little excel spreadsheet in his head... but also help this hammed up behavior earns a little "tch" like you rat. they are just allowing this hand-patting to happen. it's a dream, it doesn't feel real at all. ] That's about the best anyone can do for now.
Remember to take care of yourself too... can't just run around on your own doing it all.
[ huffing just a little bit becauss yeah, you fuckin' right. it takes a moment, but eventually they just lean back a bit on their other hand. the latin turns into a whisper, someone testing pronunciation in a variety of ways with perfect dictation.
imperare sibi maximum imperium est. ]
I know a person of their kind. Unrelenting, in pursuit always. Largest thorn in my side...
[ME LIKE DAHUT PROBABLY WOULD KNOW LATIN IF THEY WEREN'T TRAPPED ON A FUCKING ISLAND instead he gets to be out here just listening to these words like ? as they change.
He's laughing at that, though... It is the laugh of someone who is also so tired all the time and understands the hells of dealing with people who just won't quit. And also won't listen to healthcare advice or EAT REGULAR MEALS he's going to commit crimes.]
Aha, oh no! Well, at least that means you're used to it... That counts for something, right? Or maybe it just means you got tired even faster.

Doctor's orders, something like that.
no subject
I will! Don't worry about me; I'm much better at taking care of myself than any of the rest of them. Probably better at it than all of them combined!
[The bar is on the floor but he truly sleeps more than almost all of them and also cares the most about food and water and CLEANLINESS.]
But I guess you probably already know that since you've had to deal with at least some of them, too.
