[He'll just be here, standing in the background, accomplishing absolutely nothing while this chaos unfolds in front of him. It's fine.]

-- got it!

[ he sounds too proud about this

but now he's just rushing to hunter's body before something happens again ]

[He’s holding out his hands! But Toi is free to just shove his head back on his body instead.]

[ he hands the head back to hunter, although if hunter drops it he is just going to leave ]

[He puts it on!

Backwards.

Give him a second while he just kind of rotates it around until it fully connects, and then—]

Holy shit that felt weird.

You should probably wash your face.

[ iT'S BEEN

ROLLING ON THE CRYPT FLOOR ]

...Probably.

[But even as Hunter kind of wipes at his face and discovers that, yes, there is a sizable amount of dirt smeared over his cheek, he doesn't leave. Instead:]

Hey, man - thank you. Seriously.

[ oh... toi is bad with sincerity. he shrugs, a little awkwardly. ]

I wasn't going to leave you like that.

Still - I appreciate it. Hopefully it wasn't too tough to catch...

[They both know it was.]

It felt like your head didn't want to get caught.

[ it was running away.... ]

It wasn't exactly listening to me...

How long had you been chasing it...?

Well, I definitely wasn't in the basement when I started, I'll say that much.

Just stay away from bodies of water.

[ can he like, drown, if his head falls in ]

Well, I'm crossing my fingers it won't pull a Sleepy Hollow again.

[The chances are very slim.]

... that's the headless story, right?

[He nods, and then:]

Wow... Someone finally understood one of my references.

[he's suffered so much here]

I'll tell you now that I probably won't get most of them.

[ he does not watch a lot of tv ]

Please just let me have this one moment.

[ he nods slowly. ]

You can have it.

[After a long moment:]

Okay. I'm done savoring it.

Feel any better?

...Yes.

[no.]
