[ It's not a lie! It's just dodging the truth! This is exactly how a liar would rationalize it, but that would require more self-awareness than Dokja possesses right now. Besides, he's doing this for Eustace's sake, he tells himself. After all, the man looks like he's crawled straight out of hell, so the priority is to get him cleaned off and settled in.
With that in mind, Dokja turns back around now that the shower is running at a nice, warm temperature. His gaze momentarily stutters at the show of skin in front of him, and then his features quickly shift into a defensive scowl. ]
Why not? I've seen you naked before.
[ Imagine admitting that he's too anxious to have Eustace leave his sight. But, recognizing that he does sound a little ridiculous in this moment, Dokja makes for the door. ]
I'll get you a towel and a change of clothes. I'll be right back, so don't lock the door. Gray's not home.
