[ He definitely should look younger than him!! Though I guess it's good for Vaughn to not judge kids from their looks... Even if they're giving him odd looks. Giorno's not going to mention anything since he's trying to be subtle.
He'll let you have it even if you're not being that subtle, Vaughn. ]
...Yyyeah, I dunno, I think I've pretty much given up on dignity at this point.
[ because he had so much to begin with. still, he takes Rhys's hand and pulls himself up to his full, towering height of 5'3" or whatever the fuck. the hospital gown is very clearly too big for him. speaking of a lack of dignity... ]
Okay, deal. We're good at video games, right? This'll be easy.
[ are they good at video games, though? this may remain to be seen. ]
I'll be honest with you. I don't even think I know what dignity means anymore. [ He's joking. Mostly. More or less. ] Maybe we left it back at Helios.
[ Onward they go! Rhys wishes his hospital gown was too big on him. This thing is nasty and grubby, and man does he miss his shoes. It's probably safe to say that everyone does, when they're stuck in a situation like this.
Rhys is quiet for a moment or two before he asks the question that's really brimming in the back of his mind. ] Are you sure you're okay? I mean, not that you're acting weird now, or anything. The last time I saw you, you were wrestling with Vallory.
They say pulling you here kind of messes with time or whatever, so, so I just want to be sure... [ that you're not dead. ]
Oh. I... I guess that makes me feel better? Kind of? Like at least everyone else didn't get candy and booze or something while I got mistaken for dead...
[ he and all the other newbies, that is. one of which is his best friend from home. how nice that they get to share this experience!
as for the self-defense comment, he looks a little unsure. ]
Yeah, well, I think maybe some of them are a little too equipped to defend themselves. I mean, I fell off a shelf nearby, does that really call for busting out karate moves?

July Intro > Giorno
[ hey, look, he doesn't know Giorno's only 15. give him a break.
...he also may be eyeballing Giorno's unique hairdo, but at least he's trying to be subtle about it. ]
Great. I'm gonna do that, then. Can we just... I don't know, log out? Quit this game somehow?
[ he doubts it, but he's asking anyway. ]
no subject
He'll let you have it even if you're not being that subtle, Vaughn. ]
We can, but we have to finish the game first.
[ It's a half win? ]
July Intro > Athena
[ he throws up his hands. he's innocent!! ]
Yeah, well, I was surprised to wake up in a bodybag, can you really blame me? Sorry I fell off a shelf in your general area.
no subject
[ that he woke up in a bodybag, she means. ]
At least you're out of the bag now!
July Intro > "Jack"
[ he blinks and looks away. whoops. ]
I, uh... no, that's okay. Rhys has plenty of pictures of you already. Definitely enough for the both of us.
[ wait, shit, did he just rat out his bff as a Handsome Jack fanboy? double whoops. ]
—I mean, not like in a weird way or anything...
[ a blatant lie, but at least he tried. ]
no subject
Wow.
What is he even hearing right now.
Just. Wow.]
Uh huh.
[He's just going to. Stand up now, and very casually move away, just a little bit.]
Rhys, huh?
[He'll have to remember that name as the name of someone to avoid.]
You know what, you can, you can actually go back to talking about me being dead, if you want. I think I'd prefer that after all.

July Intro > Frisk
[ ...god, how can he resist the cute child who clearly just wants a real puppet to call their own with no strings attached whatsoever?? ]
Sure, yeah! Why not? Gotta learn my way around somehow, right?
