[Yeah, his actions are comparable to a child's right now but...Shuichi can't really see Kokichi himself as childish, not over something like this.]
[Though that will definitely change once he bounces back from this and starts acting like his usual, fun-loving self. But being frightened by nightmares and seeking out physical comfort like this, after the things he's been through-- the things they've all been through-- there's nothing childish about that.]
