[Wow Karkat way to make a horrific mess of the kitchen while I'm totally not dying.]
[But John is definitely still asleep when he comes back with the soup, his breath sort of hitching awkwardly every few seconds. Through some combined effort of the hitching and the smell of the soup, he wakes up some five or ten minutes after Karkat comes back, rousing slowly and sort of whining, quietly, willing himself to go back to sleep.]
[When it doesn't work, he eventually figures out how to focus on what appears to be Karkat, and smiles a little.]
See? Totally not dying. [Except now he's even hoarser than before.]
