Something? It's inelegant. A monosyllabic mental sound that serves as a psychic squeeze to his shoulder that's meant to be supportive, and honestly, is probably as much bracing for Daniel as it is the other man. He didn't want to hide this from Louis, he just didn't know how to bring it up. He really was going to loop him in, and had hoped by then (tomorrow, maybe) that he'd have found a way to open that wasn't 'Okay before I tell you, you have to promise not to be mad.'
"Yeah, I got jumped," he says aloud. "Lestat showed up just in time. One that went down, dunno what became of him decisively but maybe dead, and a woman, Germanic-sounding, who fucked off. I got a phone off the male, and sent it in to be cloned and opened up. I should hear back about it tomorrow or the next night."

A neat summary, he thinks. All caught up.
"How are you?"
