[ They go from All Movement to basically no movement when Guzma pushes a canteen in front of them, like they've forgotten what it was like to take a break. There's the sense that they might have blinked, if they were capable of doing so.

They lift the canteen to their mask, and it lightens just a little. They don't need to drink much, but it's nice. (The kindness of not being forgotten is nicer, but the water helps.)

Then, as instructed, they sit right there. They're covered in dirt and scuff marks from all their work, and keeping themselves clean has fallen to the wayside a little; moving like someone in a slight daze, they scrub at their mask gently, beginning to clean it.

They've neglected themselves, just a little.
