[ It's a callout Daniel will accept. You know, to listen to. Not to actually follow up on, since the man definitely is not making even the slightest effort to walk back over to the bed and lie down.
He can always do that later. He just-- He wants to spend a few more moments with Robby first. It feels too important to immediately go sleep again, no matter how much his head is pounding right now. It's hopefully nothing some hydratation and pills won't fix.
(A-And maybe a nap, but-- later, okay? Let a sensei have a moment with the boy he missed so much.)
Even if said boy is asking him one of the hardest possible questions. Daniel has had to open up a touch about what happened to the doctors here, since they needed to know what was wrong with him, but he's been so careful to keep any details about what happened hidden, not wanting to think or talk about them.
But he doesn't want to let Robby hanging either.
It makes Daniel suck in a deep breath, pushing his shoulder off the wall to instead support himself with one hand leaning against it, so he can start to move a little. Thankfully all the apartments are similar enough that he's got a good idea of where the kitchen is.
He is answering Robby though. Not verbally - or, you know, through the phone - but instead with a shake of his head.
He can't directly look at the boy as he shakes his head either. ]
