Lloyd shot Karkat an irritated look. Did he really have to insult them like that? "Hey, we didn't know that was where we needed to go. It's not like you knew either." The fact was, though, that they were going to have to backtrack now, which did make it feel like they'd wasted time. That only made the scathing remarks hit that much closer to home. He ran a hand through his hair and exhaled roughly, trying to breathe out his frustration. "I told you, we had to start somewhere. I asked if you had any better ideas, and you didn't."

Still defensive, he nearly shot back a retort in Inoue's defense - that is, until he looked at her himself. He was still being rude, probably insulting (what was a recuperacoon?), but he was unfortunately right. Inoue didn't look steady at all.

"Inoue, are you all right?"

How much had that healing taken out of her? Or was this a symptom of something else?
