He nods at Yuya's question. He's about to go on and give Yuya a very rambling and slightly nonsensical anecdote of their time in hell, before he changes the subject.

Fun fact: Strange is not doing fine in the slightest, as shown by that whole drunk in the afternoon sort of thing. (Though regrettably, he's finding that he's shifting from 'fun drunk' to 'oh god alcohol was a bad idea drunk' the longer they talk.) Denial isn't just a river in Egypt and acknowledging the trauma that happened to you is for suckers.

"Yuya," he states, before saying the kid's name again because it's kind of fun to say and these are the things he's thinking about apparently. "Yuya, I'm fine. Perfectly wonderful. My chest hurts but that's only from Psionic's, erm, psionics. Besides, you are the one we should be worried about." It's said as he points at Yuya in a way that's a tad too dramatic, even for Strange's normal standards.

Unfortunately, said dramatic point means that Yuya can easily see the mirrored scratches marking up Strange's wrist.
