[He scrunches his face up slightly like he's annoyed, then sighs unsteadily and lets his hand drop out of his hair. Alexei pushes his back straight and leans into the railing behind him, resting his head against it with his eyes shut while he just... tries to pull himself together.

It takes a while. Probably not as long as it feels like it does before his ears stop ringing and his shoulders simply ache slightly from the tense way he was holding himself. He lets one leg slide flat, missing Sheehan by inches with the sole of his boot, then opens his eyes on an exhale.

He looks tired.

[Alexei inhales, holds it for a few moments, then lets it out.]

Nothing happened.

[He sounds as exhausted as he looks.]

Nothing—... nothing happened. I was having a smoke.

It...

[He's about to say 'nothing', feeling a little irritable about having to think about it, but he bumps the back of his head against the railing and thinks back to where his mind had been at the time his chest had started to seize up.

He remembers what he was thinking about. Shakes his head.
]

Nothing that should have... made that happen. Nothing bad.

[Sigh...]

Depends what you mean by 'a lot'.

[Yes, he knows he's being evasive. He rubs his face then pats at his jacket pocket for a cigarette.]

It happens sometimes. It's... [A frown.] I can normally throw it off. Or it just... lasts for a minute.

[Blink. Oh. Cigarette.

He takes it.
]

Thanks.

[And then, once it's lit and he's taken the first drag.]

Last time, it was... [Hm, how to say...] I was talking about some things back home. [He frowns.]

Sometimes I don't... realise something is bothering me until my ears start pounding.

[Alexei lets out a dry, shaky laugh.]

I just spent twenty minutes thinking I was gonna die. Yeah, I'd say 'exhausted' is a fucking word for it.

[He goes a little still for a moment.]

... You sure that's a good idea?

[Again, he makes a face. The expression is one of distinct unease this time as he subs his cigarette out against the deck and takes the offered hand. He does use the railing behind him as an additional aid to get up, reasoning that Sheehan probably can't take his full weight if he pulls on him.]

I've never spoken to Arthur. You know that, right.

[He thinks about it for a minute, knowing that the other man isn't going to rush him over it. Right now, going back to his own cabin with the lingering concern that it's going to happen again is a very real worry. Going to Ethan doesn't seem right when he's still in a state and the other man will probably get upset or overly fretful and might just... set him off again.

Alexei rubs a hand over his face and groans lightly against his palm before his arm drops.
]

Okay.

Mmn.

[Walking feels... weird. Like he's off-balance. He uses the wall to keep himself steady as soon as he can reliably touch one, brushing his hand against it while he walks along.]

Did Arthur know where you'd gone?

[A huff. He supposes that's fine. Though he doesn't take the offered arm he does lightly pat it by way of reassurance.]

'M okay. Just feeling a bit spaced out.

Yeah. [He leans one shoulder against the wall beside the elevator, nodding slightly and trying his very best to look like there's nothing wrong with him to any other casual passerby.]

I... get that. More than you might know. [A small half-smile.] But if you love him like I do Abel, I bet he drives you up the wall sometimes too.

[He slips in through the doors, leaning against the wall and puffing out a sigh.]

Pity... Makes things more fun sometimes. Not always, though.
