I can tell, yes. It's like I'm... soaking it up, I don't know how to describe it, I...
[He looks troubled at Luka's suggestion - isn't that the exact opposite of what he should be doing? Isn't feeding your Entity bad? That's what he always argued, incessantly, demandingly. Then again, he can't really keep leaping around uncontrollably or hurt people by accident, can he?
Luka's fear swirls all around him, fills out his head and it feels so good and it makes him so guilty and it's all too much.
If he could just control it-- if he could just stop craving it-- if he could just get away from it--
He suddenly leaps back, away from him, across the room. Taking a nightstand and a chair with him until he's stopped by the opposite wall. It knocks the wind out of him with an oof and then he's down on the ground groaning, a single thread leading over to his hand.]
Yes, you're right. That's exactly what it's like, it--
[That's all he gets out before Carter suddenly leaps, and he's not expecting that at all. Luka startles just as much when the lightstand and chair go with him and he knocks his own chair over, rushing over to Carter's side.]

Are you okay? I--
[There's a small thread leading to his hand.
That's...yep. A thread.
He stares at it, fascinated.]
You did it!

It's just like last time.
[He looks down at his fingers, a little dismayed.]
I don't get it. I mean, what is that? Who's gonna be scared of that? Not that I want to scare people but...

Please accept the most heart-eyes look, Carter.]
You're like a jumping spider! Like you just--like a bunny, you just went sproing--
[He even makes the sound effect, utterly delighted. Carter, this is the cutest thing he has ever seen--]
I don't know, but I think you are very lucky.

Why are you looking at him like that.]
Lucky? What if I grow limbs or eyes or... or other spider things! I don't want that?!

[Carter if you were monstery he would find you equally as adorable. This will not stop him.
He moves close to him, and when he gets close, he reaches for his hand, trying to see where the thread connects, trying to link his hand to his.]

Carter sighs, looking down at their hands.]
Can you help me up?

Of course.
