[The beast is more a mewl than a roar at the moment, though, heh.
Not that he would ever dare to say no if she decided to, er, give him a hand. Yes indeed.
Even though he knows it's best that she go get done what needs to be done, that doesn't mean he has to like being separated from her. Now more than ever, he just wants to hold her hand, preferably to his cheek, and snuggle up close together for a few hours. Perhaps overnight. Long enough for his fever to break, anyways.
Still, he lets her go with a nod, quickly falling into a swift doze in the short span of time she's away. It's not restful at all, with his leg twitching in pain and vague nightmares plaguing him, but thankfully neither last too long, for Hiyori is swift. He starts awake with a sharp inhale and a wince before struggling to push himself upright.]
Mmm, yeah... Ready whenever ya are. [Though he looks more out of it than she's probably ever seen him, at least since he was blighted. Favoring his good leg, he hoists himself to his feet, fumbling blindly for a moment to grasp her hand. She probably doesn't need rings to feel his exhaustion, but it's there in the background anyway, a looming sense of lethargy.] You sure you're not gonna get in trouble for this...? Don't wanna be a bother.
