[A tilt of his head. But Dominic did him the courtesy of not asking about his dream, and so he will extend the same courtesy...For now.

He has suspicions now, anyway.]

Has a certain rat contacted you about this?

[English]

[unfearful]

[By now, Dominic's received his fair share of calls. He's tired, and it has nothing to do with lack of sleep.

He frowns slightly, but not at Break.]

... He has.

[English]

[charientisms]

[As this same thing has just happened to him, he understands Dominic's weariness quite well.

He pauses for the slightest of moments, deciding what to say. Well, why not? A smile.]

He shall hate you for this dream.

[English]

[unfearful]

[Dominic wasn't expecting that.]

What?

[scientize]

I doubt you`ll be able to sleep now.

[unfearful]

... I guess not.

[scientize]

Since we seem to be two of the few adults left who can speak English, we could always enjoy an evening at the tavern together.

[unfearful]

[A pause as he considers this.]

Well, I suppose it's not as if I've anything better to do.

[Japanese]

[rise_to_caesar]

That doesn't look too pleasant...

[English]

[unfearful]

[Yet someone else he can't understand.]

I'm sorry. I don't speak your language.

[Broken Engrish]

[rise_to_caesar]

{Another one who speaks English, oh boy. Akihiko has to think fr a moment before he speaks.]

Not... Something I want dreaming?

[English]

[unfearful]

Ah...

[He nods, though now he's at a loss as to what to say.]

[Portuguese]

[stoicism]

[This entire scenario is all too familiar to Frank; destruction and corpses mirroring his own life, prior to finding himself under his commander's care.]

You too were given salvation...

[English]

[unfearful]

[If Dominic knew what Frank was saying, he would've disagreed--what Dewey offered him turned out to be far from salvation in the end. However, since he doesn't--]

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're saying.

[Portuguese]

[stoicism]

[He assumed by this point that nobody would be capable of understanding him. Perhaps later he will be able to investigate this matter to a greater extent. For now, he just gives a nod, accepting that anything said is merely lost in translation.]

Dominic-kun, are you okay? [They agreed that he can drop the honorifics, but with that... It just came out. He can understand that feeling, but to a lesser degree; he used to be alone, too. A child can only take so much when his entire world crumbled next to him at a young age. ...So...

That would definitely explain, a least partially, why he was so quiet and reserved.]

[English]

[unfearful]

[Actually, Dominic was surprisingly cheerful as a child, even after that event, but that's neither here nor there.]

Minato... I'm sorry. I don't understand.

[He can make out his name, but as for everything else, he can only guess.]

[English]

[carpo_vita]

[No, it's the moment. Of course you need to move on - but that car crash wasn't pretty when it happened, not was it exactly a pleasant memory, to say the least. :|;

...Oh. Right, language barriers. But he knows how to say this in English! There's an accent, but it should be fully understandable.]

Are you okay? [Which sounds like something on the line of "Aru yu Ou-kai?", :|b]

[English]

[unfearful]

[He gives Minato a small smile, even though his heart's not really in it.]

Yeah... I'm fine.
