wake up time

[cardinalsinned]

[ This is probably the second worst way to wake up, in a hospital bed with Juan there watching. ]

What... happened to me?

Comments

[foundjuanting]

I will gladly give you that privacy.

[OH LOOK THERE SHE IS BRB NOT SEEING THAT HAPPEN]

[cardinalsinned]

[ If only it was usually so easy to get rid of you ]

[ And you'll know it's over when the nurse leaves ]

[foundjuanting]

[Peeking his head in a little bit later? With a small white bad]

I... took the liberty of aquiring your medication.

[cardinalsinned]

More liberty than you should have. Give it here.

[foundjuanting]

I am under an oath, brother.

[GOD HERE, TAKE YOUR MEDS]

[cardinalsinned]

What oath has ever held you?

[ Taking them. Look at all this trust right here ]

[foundjuanting]

The one from our brother, though missing. He would tear through my belongings if he suspected me of breaking it.

[cardinalsinned]

Who is missing? What are you talking about?

[foundjuanting]

Our brother, what he owns is still with us, but he went missing about the time when you were struck by this strange illness.

[cardinalsinned]

I take it you have already searched for him?

[ A little unsteady on his feet when he tries to get out of bed ]

[foundjuanting]

[Trying to help steady him

...man this is a weird switch.]

For days, I have asked those he knows and ridden out across this place, I can not explain it.

[cardinalsinned]

[ Yeah, and kind of uncomfortable, honestly. Not that he can argue with it right now. ]

If he is meant to return to us, he will return. We can hardly stop him if he leaves, it will not be his choice or ours.

[foundjuanting]

All of what he owns remains with us, he will return. He has no choice.

[cardinalsinned]

Not if he's actually been taken. You should know that by now, this place does as it pleases.

[ Tell me there are pants around somewhere, he's not walking home in a hospital gown ]

[foundjuanting]

He will return!

[foundjuanting]

[...also yes, there are pants]

[cardinalsinned]

You may wish to prepare yourself in case he does not.

[ Now turn around so I can put pants on. I'm not letting you watch ]

[foundjuanting]

...Are you honestly so prudish? To think that you would be a soldier.

[cardinalsinned]

Only around you. Even Micheletto has more propriety.

[foundjuanting]

I am not a predator of men, you don't need to fear that.

[cardinalsinned]

[ quietly, to himself ]

Not of men, but of brothers.

[foundjuanting]

...

I was not aware that it would continue to affect you so.

[foundjuanting]

Then let us forget the event happened at all.

[cardinalsinned]

I would, gladly. If you would stop bringing it up.

[foundjuanting]

[Starting to leave, quickly]

Consider the matter finished.
