[ Daniel stares right back at the boy from so close up, for a moment not saying anything - mostly because he's a little bit in thought about what Robby is telling him here. A part of him wants to say that he's definitely not going anywhere anytime soon, no matter what Daniel himself might want, but that sounds just a little too pessimistic, even if it's also reality. Daniel knows what his body feels like, and even doctors in this place surely can't work that much of a miracle.
He'll take eventually being able to walk again, honestly.
Still, realistic or not, he doesn't want to bring down Robby's mood with further concern about him. So instead Daniel allows his mind to move on, slightly glancing down at the way Robby's hands clasp his own like that. The tiny scars still littered across the skin, but aside from that-- definitely just hands. Normal human hands. ]
How are they feeling now..?
[ Look, Daniel does figure they're mostly okay, since he's never been able to catch Robby in the act of showing any discomfort about them - not very recently, anyway. But it's just always easier to focus on this boy's wellbeing than it is about his own, especially when the latter is so uncertain until they can get a doctor over here, even with the pain fading due to the potion's effects. ]
