-There is a pale, fanged lady behind you, Mildred-
Don't be so bossy. He'll die eventually, when he's ready, just be patient.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...Hm! I cannot say I have met a "Mildred", before, but she sounds delightful! Shall I try to locate her for you so that you may be spared some of the trouble you would have taken by looking for her, darling?
…
(Well that caught him off guard.)
...Heavens, if—... Listen, please tell me what's wrong. I... I would like to help. I do not understand yet, but if I cou— HWUH—!

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?But—... Please, someone so young should not carry such hurt within themselves. I know we aren't exactly acquainted, but—... But I want to help you, I really do...
(Clumsily gets down on his knees, patting around for the glasses on the floor.)
Assuredly I shall! And I will not let you down, darling, I swear it on my life and honor as a Lieutenant of the Seoul chapter of the Human-Alien Brotherhood Brigade!

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...Just—... Anything at all I can do for you, even if you don't feel comfortable speaking to me... I cannot let you suffer alone, I refuse...
(Puts his glasses back on, going ahead and having a seat on the ground.)
(...you can kinda see the abdomen segmentation through his shirt)

FRIEND!!!
...Mm. What in particular are you hungry for?
(Notices Sandra staring and fidgets a bit, pulling his arms over his abdomen.)
...Erm— And would you like something as well?
make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019Don't worry, dear, I'm sure Kafka here will fix you up a good feed.
