“What I mean to say is that you'll have ample warning before needing to lie down.” Of course he's been tired the whole time, that was a large part of the problem, as far as the fox sees it. There's a difference between the ever present drain of illness and being on the verge of passing out, though.

Thankfully Hiei thinks better of his retort, allowing Kurama to remain oblivious to that thought, for now, at least. Ironic considering how much effort the fire apparition has gone into making his presence out to be the inconvenience through most of this.

“With combined resources, we'll be able to work something out. However, that's a decision for tomorrow. I'm sure in the state you're heading, conversation and travel will both be out of question in short order. Based on how previous night's have gone, at least.”

Hiei doesn't want to risk taking the level of absolutely zero filter he experienced the last time he was drugged back to demon world, does he? That sounds like a recipe for disaster.
