"Home"... [N doesn't really have one either, though the way it feels odd saying it makes him wonder if he ever had one. Surely he must have, at some time, right?

His head's starting to hurt, so he trails his hand against the wall in case he feels faint.]

I'm excited to meet Nuvema and the rest of your friends, Hilbert, and for you to meet one of my only ones. [He hesitates, pausing even in his step.] Unless you wouldn't mind being my third?

[Considering they'd apparently met before, and he seemed familiar enough. Kind of comfortable to be around.]
