Thanks for letting me come over and bitch at you. I've been... I dunno. Stress tends to make me shut down.
[That Casper asks, whether to joke or look for reassurance, gets a smile.] It is definitely you.
[Seeing the scientist finally start eating lets Muldoon relax a little. He doesn't want to be a nag, but... He does worry that Casper doesn't take care of himself.]
That was the nicest bitching I've ever heard. But you're welcome. We all need a break sometimes. I'm happy to remind you to take yours.
[Only after Casper has made a good start on his dinner does Muldoon follow suit.]
You don't seem like the type to shut down, though.
