[ He'd both noticed it, and hadn't--the state of the man, only half-visible from where Robby had been coming from, and Mister LaRusso kneeling. But it's when the man looks at him (his sensei-- his, his original sensei) that the unkempt state becomes clearer, the bruising that's now yellowing from age. The way his eyes have trouble focusing on him, and all of it confuses Robby, is Mister LaRusso okay?
Robby doesn't know what to think, nearly slows briefly, but picks up the pace until he's close enough to catch sight of the bottle, and the alarm bells further go off in his head. ]
Mister LaRusso-- [ There's an urgency, a confusion; his mind trying to figure out what's happened, what could make him look this way, but Robby's kneeling all the same, he's putting his hands on his shoulders, he's close enough to smell the alcohol without trying. ] Are you okay? We should get you indoors. It's okay, it's gonna be alright.
[ He could try giving the man a moment to speak, but between the alcohol and the mess of him, Robby's letting his own mouth move, say what it wants, like of course it's something about this place that's gotten to him. Or is it someone? Did someone get to him--
Still, he's not immediately trying to help the man to his feet. There's time for him to say something, if he will. ]
