( A few hours. Longer than he'd thought it had been. Or was it less? It's hard to tell with the past blurring with the present and making things feel so much longer than they really are. He looks over at the food on the tray and where he would have been quick to help himself, he finds his appetite lacking right now. Even he recognizes that's strange and he frowns.
Instead, he reaches for the tea. The tea pot feels heavy in his hand and he finds himself having to support his arm with his free hand as he pours. Ugh, he's just... really tired. He sets the teapot down heavily, the porcelain clattering loudly and he flinches again. He's never been graceful or particularly gentle when it comes to serving but even this is clunky for him, )
It's so quiet in here...! ( He tries to brush it off, ) And seriously... is it warm to ya?
( Or is it just him? is he starting to get a fever, he wonders?
This whole room is uncomfortable and he can feel himself starting to get on edge, his skin crawling and body becoming more tense. It's small and dark and closed off in here and it's so quiet and even Doudanuki isn't enough of a distraction from the memories blurring at the edge of his conscious-- a dimly lit room, quiet at night-- )
