Null isn't sure of what to do now that all of his offers had been rejected. It had all been going so well up until he'd /spoken without thinking/, now Valentin was even more distant. Watching the doll with a narrowed, suspicious gaze. Any traces of the amusement that had briefly been there due to Null emulating him gone.
But...
No. No, no, no. It wasn't all bad, it couldn't be. Valentin was still here, still talking to him, and he hadn't even responded yet!
"Yes, I am!" he says, just a bit too quickly before catching himself and clearing his throat "I...yes. I want to help you, I want to ease your pain. You shouldn't have to suffer..."
Holding himself to prevent reaching out, Null sways a little. What to say now? Valentin didn't want food, cleaning, healing, definitely not a bath...so what now?
"Ah....I should put out the fire now that I'm done cooking. Is it...okay if I come closer to do that? I won't touch you, I promise!"
