[Dan Heng's twitching only seems to intensify upon vaguely registering someone nearby. People...coming in to taunt him? Hurt him? The chains hold him in place, he can't move. It's cold, he can't-

A voice he doesn't know. Something prods his leg (gently, but sudden anyway), and his body moves instinctively with a flinch, his tail swinging around in a startled motion that slams into- something? There's a dull thud as whatever it is gets knocked over or away. What? He shouldn't be able to do that-]

What-?! [Dan Heng sits up, eyes wild and confused, before locating--oh, stars--] Hunter??

[ hunter's just hunching over dan heng under the table at this point, wondering if her should try waking him a little harder -- at which point the tail swings up and ]

[ well, he should have expected this ]

[ rule of comedy demands that hunter go flying, so that's going to happen ]

What the-- HEY!

[ he gets knocked into a table and a few books fall on his head, one by one, cartoonishly. somewhere, someone goes "SHHHHH" loudly ]

[He should have known he’d hit someone. Stars. Oh no. He’s starting to recognize that. Particular voice. (It's not annoying to him but it is Very Distinct.)

Dan Heng looks on in horror as the boy has not one but multiple books fall on his head. One. At. A. Time.]

Hunter, I didn’t [bonk] mean to [bonk] hit you, I was just [bonk] startled-- Are you alright?!

[.....Bonk. By the time he thinks to do something about the possible Brain Damage the boy is getting, the books have stopped falling on him. Great. Lovely.] Obviously you’re not. I’m so sorry; did you-

[Someone SHUSHES them, making him wince. Right. Library. He lowers his voice before continuing.] Did you need something? I’m so. So sorry.

[ bonk ]

[ bonk ]

[ bonk ]

It's--

[ bonk. bonk. bonk. ]

[ his voice comes out extremely squeaky ]

F.... Fine....

[ and now the shush comes, as he's surrounded by fallen books ]

Was just.... wondering if you had passed out.... under the table...

[It may be this occurrence specifically that makes Dan Heng really consider signing up for the healing implant. This is completely his fault. Hunter is most definitely concussed, and it’s all his fault. He could intercept with water? But it’d ruin the books, and then Bakugo would kill him probably, and-

They’ve stopped. Thank the stars. Dan Heng is doing that thing where he’s reaching for Hunter but unsure what to actually do. Except. Be. Quiet, apparently.]

It’s not fine. I just hit you and you didn’t deserve it. [Aeons he was just checking on him…stupid. Why did he fall asleep here…

Dan Heng shuffles forward, but stops short of getting in the boy’s space. He’s worried, but not at the cost of causing more distress.]

A…library is familiar to me. I do not sleep well, so I suppose drowsiness snuck up on me here, in a semblance of familiarity. Er. [He holds a hand aloft.] Can I take a look at your head? If you’re concussed, we should really get that looked at…

[ the books have ceased their assault, and hunter just. gingerly rubs at his own head for a bit ]

[ taking care to lower his own voice so he doesn't get shhhed again ]

Seriously, man, it's fine.

[ he has had so much worse. the squeakiness of his voice starts to dissipate, but he does wince a bit as he rubs his head. ouchie ]

Uh. Sure? But let's get out of here first. [ before the librarian murders them both... and before dan heng falls asleep again ]

[What vengeful books. It wasn’t Hunter’s fault he got sent flying…]

A-Alright… [It’s not fine. Attacking any member of the express, on accident or not, is unacceptable. That extends to here, especially to one of their younger members. Dan Heng should be in more control. However he also knows all the apologies could be even more distressing…he can let it go. For now.

But…yes. They should move. He can still feel fatigue pulling at him, but the shock of the everything that just happened has Dan Heng wide awake. He tidies up his books a bit, then…some of the ones that toppled everywhere before following Hunter out of the library.

He sighs, dispersing his tail before peering at the other.] I…actually do appreciate you waking me. The dreams I was experiencing were…far from pleasant. Now…may I see? [He gestures to see the top of Hunter’s head, which actually may require the younger Outsider to lean down. Curse his short stature.]
