[ No. It's okay. They can laugh. His dignity is pretty much gone anyway, buried somewhere deeper into the sand where he wishes he could bury himself. This is fine. This is totally fine. After that presentation, there's no way that this couldn't be fine.
Except it's not fine. He's glad he didn't end up crushed underneath the castle, but looking back on it? He's wondering if maybe that had been the better option. Damn his natural instinct to not be dead.
He recognizes both of their voices. He should be relieved, right? A big part of him actually is, because holy shit what a weird situation this is in the first place. He remembers running into them in the desert, but then that all went...black, and the weird images of their home followed, and then the official looking people, and then--...this. And then this.
He would sigh, except he's already inhaled enough sand.
He puts his hands on either side of his head and forces himself up, coughing up a few mouthfuls of sand. The fact that it's stuck all around his face and hair probably looks great, too. He twists to look over his shoulder at the pair and-- ]

Yep, putting it back in the sand. Or at least into his hands. ]
