Cai sniffed good and hard, the kind of sniff that the guys at school used to do before hoicking something really gross toward the girls, except they hadn't been crying so hard their chest hurt beforehand. Danny was making jokes and that was incredible - that gave Cai so much hope. he could hold onto hope. He knew what to do with hope. "It's a series of tubes," Cai said, trying to grin (failing, but trying.) "They feed you breakfast through your nose, did y'know I didn't even know they could do that so you're gonna have to let me know if your breakfast tastes like snot." This time his attempt at a grin was a little stronger, his face didn't attempt to collapse half was through. "And I'm not gonna leave till they make me, nuh uh, so I'll take a pillow s'long as it doesn't have snotty cornflakes all over it."
