[ Dokja really out here telling a stoic to be less of a stoic. Sorry, it's coded into his genes.
But, like Dokja, Eustace takes the time to really think about the request, eyelids fluttering back open as he stares at some blank spot on the wall across from him. He does think a lot, his mind constantly whirring as he considers this and that, but it's all cyclical in the end, the same thoughts cropping up over and over again. ]
I think about you a lot [ wow, gay ], and Gray. [ And more recently, D. ] I worry about what will happen the next time the Oracle comes. I'm not strong enough to protect anyone the way I am now.
[ Which is a bitter pill to swallow even if it is the truth. He needs to get stronger, but there's only so much a man can do with so much time given. There's another brief lull of silence before he speaks again, voice dipping low in contemplation.]
Sometimes I wonder if all of us would have been happier if we'd never been brought here.
[ Not that he isn't happy now, but it's an equal amount of pleasure and pain. There'll probably only be more pain the future too, as tensions continue escalating. ]
