That gives Rhy pause. More than pause. He hasn't the first idea how to respond to it, and for a moment, he can't even think. It's just - memories, too many of them, of Alucard saying similar words in that voice of his, and Rhy is not over any of them yet. Perhaps he never will be.

But surely that isn't what Alucard means. He's clearly not well, and he's - confused. Not himself. Or at least Rhy thinks that must be the case, because why else would he say such a thing?

"Ah-"

He really doesn't know what to say. His usual charm and easy replies always seem to desert him with Alucard.

"You're rather ill. It's best you sleep alone."
