[Six takes note of Nehan's expression but doesn't want to interrupt the captain—something that thankfully gets noticed fairly quickly, even with Six's mask on. The captain cares about all the people on their ship, after all, and noting the tense energy in Six is getting easier with the passing of time.
So with an apology and a quick wave, the captain departs, and Six sets his sights on the Grandcypher's mess hall. Raduga is open right now, but...to be honest, he's not really sure he has the stamina to endure Ladiva talking about love while Nehan is right here.]
You should sit down.
[It's been a long walk for someone who recently woke from a coma, so Six leads Nehan over to a table in the corner, pointedly ignoring Feather excitedly trying to wave him over from the other side of the dining hall. Randall kicks him under the table and tells him to stop, and that's the end of that.
He hesitates here again. Should he just assume anything is fine to eat, if Nehan can't taste it anyway? Which would make him angrier, to be thought of or to not be thought of...?]
...Is there...anything that you want in particular?
[No, it's best to ask. Just because he doesn't have any preferences himself doesn't mean Nehan won't either...even if he can't taste the things he might have liked anymore.
There's so much he doesn't know about Nehan. Maybe he won't ever know as much as he wants to, but...it's his responsibility to learn everything that he can. Even if it's things as simple as what he liked to eat, when he could taste his food.]
