day 176 [video / voice];
[someone sure is in the hospital, maybe for the day. his head is wrapped up tight in gauze, but he otherwise looks okay. his index and middle finger on his right hand are also splinted, for now.]

...For anyone who had to see what happened yesterday: I'm okay—no one needed to see that broadcast. Sorry to those of you who had to see it, and...thanks to those of you who did whatever you did to bring me to the hospital... I'm sorry to have troubled you.

[the video feed cuts—
but Rion's voice is still there. this is only apparent after a second or two of silence.]

I won't forget what you did.

	[WHAT IS SOCIAL ANXIETY] Are you ok, Rion? [he leans forward a little. He's already finished all the food on his plate, and has now finished his wine. He gives him a reassuring smile that is subtly bolstered by the alcohol.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Rion almost jumps, then scoots back a tiny tiny bit.] Y-yeah—! I'm fine. Sorry, I was just— [um. Rion stares at his plate. thinking is a little hard.] I don't know. —You're already done? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, yeah. I eat can pretty quickly. [Luke stares for a moment, then laughs at Rion's flustered behavior] It's okay. Don't worry about it? [whatever it is??] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	abelminded 2012-08-03 02:47 am UTC (link)
	?? I'm not worried... [Rion still has like, half a plate of salmon. how did you eat so fast, Luke. he also still has about half a glass of wine, and he feels pretty full, so... he'll just... have another sip of that and ignore his own bashful moronic behavior.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Luke orders some dessert to buy Rion more time to eat and not feel so rushed] Do you want to go somewhere after this? Since you said you would only be getting sicker... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Rion puts his wine glass down very slowly (motor skills are hard for some reason), and then takes more ~~dainty~~ bites of his salmon.

he lifts his head when Luke asks about doing anything else. already, this feels like so much. no matter, though. Rion wipes his mouth.]

...It's not that I'm not having a good time, but I'm actually banned from anything the wardens consider to be a fun activity.

I wonder if we should even be spending time together, thinking about it.

[but it's just food, right?]

	[Luke looks at him with some concern] They would have notified you if you were breaking a rule, wouldn't they? [scratches head] We have been here for a while, after all. If you're worried, we could just go to my house and relax. I don't think napping is really considered entertainment. [shrug] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Your house...?

[well, resting in the shelter probably isn't very condusive to recovery... and the hospital just brings back too many bad memories. Rion considers, pushing around some salmon with his fork before he thoughtfully pops a bite in his mouth.

chew, chew, swallow.]

Are you sure? Isn't inviting a stranger into your home dangerous—? I'm a dangerous artificial life form, who you barely know...

	I'm the same- some dangerous artificial life. And we only met yesterday. It's up to you. [he sits back, contended and mild seeming in his mannerisms] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[as Luke talks, he finishes another bite or two of the salmon—he's full, honestly, and he was a little while ago, but it's just so tasty uuguhgh

he washes it down with a small, slow sip of wine, swallows in a pause, then responds.]

...I...I guess so—? It'd be nice to be somewhere less cluttered for a night, especially since I'm still injured.

[Rion wants to, actually, but he's bad at expressing his desires.]

	Then we'll go there when you're ready. [he nods to the food, indicating no real rush] If you wanna, we can stop off and get some things- like clothes and toiletries. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... [Rion wobbles in place once, then takes another bite of salmon. he's too tired and too injured and will probably be too full and a little drunk, for any of that.] I should be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shut_up 2012-08-07 06:25 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, then. [Luke orders some dessert and tea] Would you like any? ... I was always used to tea or coffee after dinner with dessert back home, but we rarely had the chance while traveling. (Reply to this) (Parent)
