[It's not until later on the following Tuesday that Ken's able to response, and boy does that make him feel terrible. He has no way of covering up the bruise on his face or the bags under his eyes, but because she sends a video he responds in like without thinking. Oops. Ah, well, at least she'll get to see the dog that's sitting on his lap when he responds.]
Hey Hinami-san... I'm doing okay. I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier. ["Okay" is an overstatement of the century but, hey, he's alive?] Were you okay after that?

[ it's impossible that she doesn't notice, going by the concern that comes over her face. ]
It's okay...I'm just glad you're okay. I'm...I'm alright. Scary stuff happened.
[ she's having nightmares, but that isn't mentioned. neither is the fact that she's started asking Kaneki to check around at night before they sleep to make sure the investigator hasn't shown up to kill them all.
but he's one of her few, new friends and she's worried!! but she doesn't mention the bruises and how tired he looks. it'd probably make him feel worse. so the dog gets her attention. ]
...You have a dog!

[He notices that she notices, and he's endlessly grateful that she doesn't ask. He just isn't ready to talk about it so soon, if ever. He looks her over for any visible injuries, but he answers to her with a genuine smile, moving the camera so that she can see Koromaru better.]
He's one of my friends from home. His name's Koromaru.
[Hey girl! Is what Koromaru would be saying if his bark can be translated.]

[Ken's now lived for half a year with healers, immortals, and the Iron Bull so the only thing he feels about Hinami's almost miraculously uninjured state is relief. Thank goodness. He ruffles Koromaru's fur and holds the camera while the dog barks cheerfully again, tail swishing behind him.]
I think he's saying hi. He's really friendly so... if you want, you can play with him sometime. I can introduce you guys.
