Summary: G checks on his old partner

Tommy was going to get claustrophobic if Oliver didn't leave his side at least for a few moments. Yes, he loved Oliver. Yes, they were best friends for ages. Yes, he trusted Oliver to have his back. No, they didn't need to spend all their time together since it seemed apparent that they would anyway. It wasn't like they could just take a walk here, or go for a bite, unless one wanted to be 'the bite'. So he was glad when Callen came over and Oliver moved away to sharper his arrow, or whatever else Oliver did for fun when left to his own devices.

"You look good for someone who's been living-" Tommy waved a hand. "I'm more of a spa kind of person. They take me away from my natural habitat and look what happens," he said, raising his hand which was still that violet shade that made him think of Easter and newborns.

Tommy shook his head. "Derek didn't convert us, I doubt you can. We had decades to get used to our normal, while this is a temporary stay. Let's remember that part. Temporary. Until we go back to our normal with dinners in nice restaurants and spas, and you can go back to your crazy. It's the perfect solution." He needed to keep telling himself that it was temporary or he might really find those happy pills.

He knew that Callen was joking, but Tommy wasn't. "Mmm, we need to get Brian involved. And TJ. We can use the cave as a spa since it's not being used, and you can still use oils, just natural ones. This is totally doable. Of course if you could find us some hot springs, that'd be totally awesome. Natural spas are the best and clay is excellent for your skin, and we'll need exfoliation, because with this weather the skin dries up. I don't even want to think about my hands. I had the best manicure done. And, you probably don't care, and I won't even classify it as normal unless you come with our bank accounts," he said, laughing.

"I... appreciate it. Hopefully, it won't get to the point that it's after. You know the funny thing is that I wasn't even using that much anymore. There was a woman I wanted to impress and being clean helped," he explain. "But the drugs were there, if the night was right or the mood was right. I wasn't really stopping, just not using as much. I don't think I ever considered not using until that island, until I knew that Oliver needed me clean, whether he knew it or not. Keeping the drugs away makes it harder to use without thinking. It's why I haven't kept a stash even when I could, but... I'll remember the offer. Thanks."
