[ This is so embarrassing. Sure he’s still a bit of a cry baby and has had a few small crying sessions when everyone else is sleeping - notably when being asked to keep the kind of secrets he didn’t expect marines to have - but he hasn’t started uncontrollably streaming with tears since he was freed from Alvidas ship. And now he’s here with an audience as he takes off his glasses and pops them into his pocket then pulls a tissue out of the packet and tries his best to clean up his face even though it still isn’t stopping. ]

No, no, it’s not you. [ Koby manages to choke out right before he hiccups. ] It’s probably just… Stress. Waking up here instead of where I went to sleep and not knowing where I am or how to get back or… Anything.

[ He pulls another tissue out of the packet, discarding the ridiculously soggy one that isn’t doing him any favours beside the wine jar. ]

Sorry, you probably think I’m a total baby now. [ He dares to sneak a glance at Eddie, who is actually looking at him rather fondly despite the messy tears. Maybe he just pities the idiot crying at the bar. ]
