[he doesn't really know where to start with that. on the one hand, knowing now what toilets are for, he can understand why diarmuid may have been embarrassed by that. but at the same time, it makes sense. a basin of water is still water. what other use would they have had for it, back at the monastery.
but it's the latter part that concerns him more. that gets his focus. because why would diarmuid need to know of an alternate use for a toilet lid? at what point did he find himself in a position to need to discover that?
(he knows, at some point, he'll need to make sure the boy can defend himself here. that neither of their stays are permanent, and that this town can pull them apart at any point. so if there's a way to help guarantee diarmuid's safety, they'll need to find it. even if it means the mute having to lift a sword again.)
he gives diarmuid a look, a press for more information. his expression is too serious for it to mean anything but a need for an elaboration on the makeshift weaponry part]
