[Enkidu has exactly zero idea what an 'electrolyte' is but they will gladly take more water. Whatever it is, it's probably supposed to be beneficial to the human body, and worst comes to worst Enkidu can just... expel it out of them. By the time RO returns, the cap is off that first bottle and it's already at Enkidu's lips. —It takes them a moment to remember the throat movement that's supposed to happen when people drink, though. Essentially, what's happening is Enkidu is pouring the water on themselves and absorbing it immediately, except the place they're absorbing it just so happens to be their mouth. Hopefully, if they drink enough of this and give it a little while to disperse into their 'system', they should be fine to stand.]
[But they certainly don't want to ignore their benefactor. So they take a pause from 'drinking' and look at her.]
Oh. Go right ahead.
[There's no point in hiding what's happening now, they figure, if she's going to stay anyway. Enkidu reaches under their half-curtain of hair with one hand, trying to get as much moisture into the clay as possible. It's a little weird, because from most angles it looks like they're just inexplicably rubbing their forehead, but... they just want to test the water before they expose the huge crack in their leg.]
You don't have to worry about me, if you have better things to do. But I appreciate it.
