He puts down the needles briefly to rub one hand up and down her arm as a
reminder she's real. "I'd like that. I'll miss you either way. You could
even use the shower here. It's... down the hall." He's certain he hadn't
dreamed that. Just which direction it falls in is a bit muggy.
When he picks up the needles again, he follows her movements without any
real skill. His lips tug downward mildly, not because she's wrong about him
needing the practice but because a part of him always desires to do things
well. He knows she's only trying to encourage him and shrugs it off as best
he can. His hands feel awkward with the exercise. "Yeah. What made you want
to start? Were you still human then?" Her life before becoming a demon
interested him. He recalled the time when he told her she didn't have to
force herself to remember her life and that he only asked to get to know
her better. The same applies now. There is never any expectation for her to
answer.
