[Right after Dirk hugs him. It isn't at flashstep speed but it isn't clingy, he lets go after a moment. He just needed the hug.]
Is it cool if I go with you when you wake up from nightmares?
[...Like he's done it before sometimes but he's never asked and he tried not to do it too much because he didn't want to be clingy. But now he just. Wants to be there? Look what you did, Dave.
Also don't worry he's hopping into the ocean now so they can go get a sandwich. Honestly no person should be this relieved at being told their family is distressed about their death, but then, it's the telling part that has him hopeful.]
