[... Avant-garde. Why is he friends with this asshole. Why.
He lets out a small, incoherent grumble but doesn't interrupt, still wary he might say something that would make Dave close off again. They'd talked about all sorts of shit on the meteor, but most of it had been either inconsequential or only likely to set Karkat himself off. When it comes to heavier topics like this (even if don't think he didn't fucking notice Dave dodging the game stuff, they'll get back to that), he still doesn't know where the boundaries are.
Besides, being less upset about something than Dave is honestly sort of fucking with him. He's also weirdly okay with it for reasons, but he's not thinking about that.]
They say exercise is supposed to help.
["They" being the people in human romcoms who try to counsel lovesick protagonists. Obviously.]
Or milk. I don't know what else works for humans.
[None of which is probably new to Dave, but what the hell is he supposed to say? "You stop noticing it after the first two hundred hours?" He could share his own dreams (dream, singular, because like fuck would he go back to sleep and have others after that), but he doesn't know where to start or even if he should. ]
