Yes, of course. Let me know if you need me to carry you.

[ Said with a tilt to his head, a worried wrinkle between his brows, but out his hand comes to take the young man's hand, his other currently steadying the boy under that frail grip. There's no hesitation or self-consciousness here. Midnight can give such things easily, so he does.

He'll make sure they're both steady before beginning to guide them both to the convenience store he has in mind. Miss Popukar has a proclivity toward violence when she's having one of her episodes. This is somehow much more tame, yet much more eerie. With Miss Popukar, he knows exactly what's happening, or at least as much as the doctors are able to inform them. This is much more of a mystery. ]


We'll be walking for a few minutes. There's a few steps down, then a street we'll need to cross. I'll warn you when they're coming, but if you need to stop or take a break before we give these things a try, we can do that.

[ Midnight focuses more on steering them both, making sure their path is clear of obstacles, than on the strangeness of the situation, the way this boy looks so lost within himself. He's a pragmatic creature at heart, much more concerned with what he can do than fretting about what's beyond him. Still... he can't help but wonder how the boy got here in the first place, in such a state. A latecomer fresh off the train, perhaps? ]
