(
For lack of a better thing to say: continue. )
It was a while, though, before he could bring himself to reply to that last one, though. A measured amount of silence, spent glancing down at the man beside him. Someone who was supposed to be gone.
"...It sure has."
Reply
A silence.
And then he scoffed, leaned far back on one hand, the other rubbing across his face. "Geez. I want to say it's... funny, but--" Hah. Definitely not.
Aw, man. He shouldn't have been bringing this up. Well...
Well.
Reply
Soft and quiet, attempting to reveal nothing. He could get better at this with time. If he HAD time, anyhow.

Still had to laugh, though, didn't they? Eh, well; his shoulders weren't shaking. Sitting still in the continually quiet morning, that was all. He'd keep on smiling, nonetheless.
And after a moment, spread the fingers enough to look over at Roy.
"Hey, you're going to want to watch that cigarette."

Headache again, now that the cigarette haze was fading and that more things have been said. Could he say anything, though, that'd distract Hughes from fussing over him? Likely not - the man was horribly single-minded when it came to certain matters.
Might as well admit it for himself, then.
"I should probably try and get some sleep after we're done here."
