...thank you for these. They--they look good, I'm excited to use them.
And it's good to hear the distraction helped, as well...you make a lot of neat things.

[puffs briefly, ready to retort, but subsides as the intro comes up on the screen, absolutely fascinated.]
[yeah they're gonna lie quiet like this for a while, too absorbed to start even debating it yet
Mikleo does draw his breath in audibly when 'Part of Your World' comes on, though.]

[grips Sorey's wrist, giving it a squeeze; he's looking!
...he catches Sorey's expression on a brief glance up and can't help but smile, though.]

Thanks, you two.
[They're really pure, aren't they? Sorey and Mikleo. They're just good people, who want the best for others. Not, Dirk thinks, because they can see the malevolence and it makes them uncomfortable, but maybe seeing the malevolence makes them more acute to the suffering of others.
They're just good.]
Building things is always something I enjoyed doing. I'll be open to any requests you have.

[In the pause between the song finishing and Sebastian making a loud mess, Sorey whispers]
That was a really good song.
[It doesn't count as talking because he was whispering, though because his throat is still sore it comes out more cracked than intended.]

[...hits pause on the screen so they can talk normally, maybe passing a sleeve over his eyes unobtrusively on the way]
It was, but you're drinking something before we go on.
[his voice is a little rough too but SHUT UP!]

[making a small grumble noise at having to pause, but handing off the pad to Mikleo and squirming away to reach the water. he makes sure to tuck mikleo in so he doesn't get cold, and if he saw mikleo wiping at his eyes he doesn't comment.]
Fine, but you too. Your voice sounds as bad as mine.

I'm not trying to whisper and croaking like a frog.
[...he starts inching towards the edge of the mattress under the blankets to reach the water, without emerging from under them...what is dignity? we just don't know]

I have one, but I don't know if it's a reasonable request or not. If you want to keep busy, I was wondering if you have a way to make a lens for our goggles so that people can see Mikleo.
[He mimics goggles with his hands just to emphasize what he's referring to.]
I was thinking about it for a while, but it would go a lot faster with someone who actually knows what they're doing.

Your throat's sore, though. I can tell. Thanks...
[gathers the cup in under the blanket. he is totally using water powers to cheat and drink without getting up or spilling anything.]

[this...is very clearly a surprise to Mikleo, because he chokes and sputters, and nearly (but thankfully only nearly!) drops the new camera in his hands.]
You--w-what? You don't have to--
You--w-what? You don't have to--
We -- we have plenty. Hinata and Makoto definitely can't, and -- anyway, we have plenty of people who could test that.
Y-yeah. It's -- thank you? Thank you, Dirk.
