[Yes, it's an optimistic, perhaps even wishful way of looking at it. But it had been optimistic, wishful impulse that had Six send Nehan a charm—and then he woke up.
...And, he supposes, it's an optimistic, wishful impulse to hope that was the result of the charm to begin with. But it seems to be working out so far. If he keeps looking toward the future and trying to find the joy in it, rather than the potential pain...it's a lesson he's still learning a little more about every day, with the help of people who support him.
The best thing for Nehan right now is to have people who support him, too. Even if it's in optimistic, wishful ways.]
There are herbalists and doctors onboard occasionally. It's possible one of them has encountered that kind of condition before. I'll keep my ears open.
[Nehan could join them, if he wants...though Six wouldn't ask until after his work is done in Stardust Town. Much like he's is seeking redemption for his own sins, Nehan is working on his as well, and it wouldn't be right to take him from that for too long.
Six lets Nehan eat quietly for a bit while he finishes his own soup, and the silence already seems a little more comfortable. Not enough to get complacent, of course. But...a little bit better than it was. He glances over at him a few times, noting some of the tension in Nehan's shoulders melting away, and he's pleased to see that so far, taking him to the Grandcypher has been overall a good idea.]
I thought you might like a tour once you've finished eating. You seemed a bit interested in how the crew works. We may as well find a room for you to stay in, too.
[Though now that he thinks about it...isn't every bedroom accounted for right now? There are a lot of musicians aboard. Practically an entire symphony's worth.
...He's got his own bedroom for his remaining stay, of course...but...well, they'll burn that bridge when they get there.]
